The Game Notes: West Ham come into this cup tie flying after four straight wins, including a huge 6-0 victory last time out. Fulham have had a much tougher start and, even with the added motivation of a London derby, West Ham’s current momentum makes a high-scoring home win feel right.
Liverpoolv
SpursPredicted
1 - 0
Actual
3 - 1
Correct result - 2 points
The Game Notes: Liverpool have been less convincing at Anfield than usual so far, while Spurs are still without a league goal after four matches. With both sides likely to rotate for the cup, this could be a cagey affair, but Liverpool should have just enough to edge it.
Ipswichv
ArsenalPredicted
1 - 2
Actual
2 - 4
Correct result - 2 points
The Game Notes: Arsenal have won every game so far this season and arrive after another clean-sheet victory, although Ipswich have shown they can cause problems and recently beat Crystal Palace away. Portman Road should make this competitive, but Arsenal’s current consistency should see them through.
Evertonv
WolvesPredicted
2 - 1
Actual
1 - 0
Correct result - 2 points
The Game Notes: Everton come into this with a five-match unbeaten run behind them and home advantage for this competitive game at the Hill Dickinson Stadium. Wolves have found limited rhythm in the Championship, but Everton’s stronger recent form and the occasion should give them the edge in what could still be a lively cup tie.
Man Unitedv
BrightonPredicted
2 - 1
Actual
2 - 3
Miss
The Game Notes: United need a response after a frustrating derby defeat, but Brighton arrive full of confidence after putting five past Coventry. Old Trafford should give United a lift, and despite Brighton’s recent success at this ground, the hosts can just about turn their superior home advantage into a narrow win.
Coventryv
Aston VillaPredicted
0 - 1
Actual
1 - 3
Correct result - 2 points
The Game Notes: Coventry have endured a miserable start and were beaten 5-0 by Brighton at the weekend, so confidence will be a major concern. Villa have also struggled for league results, but they should have enough quality to keep this tight and come away with a narrow cup victory.
