English League Cup Manchester United vs. Newcastle odds, picks, predictions: Best bets for Sunday's EFL Cup final from proven soccer expert
A major piece of silverware is on the line Sunday when Manchester United and Newcastle United face off in the English League Cup final at Wembley Stadium. United have moved up to third in the English Premier League table and have won the EFL Cup five times, most recently in 2016-17. Newcastle are fifth in the table but have a game in hand on fourth-pace Tottenham, who lead them by one point. The Magpies haven't won a major trophy since 1969 and have played EFL Cup final once, way back in 1975-76. Â Â Â
Kickoff is set for 11:30 a.m. ET. Caesars Sportsbook lists United as +111 favorites (risk $100 to win $111) on the 90-minute money line in the latest Manchester United vs. Newcastle United odds.

Before you make any Newcastle vs. Manchester United picks or EFL Cup predictions, you NEED to see the English League Cup best bets from renowned soccer bettor Jon "Buckets" Eimer.
Eimer is a high-volume bettor who has vast knowledge of leagues and players across the globe. Since joining SportsLine, Eimer has covered the English Premier League, Serie A, the FA Cup and much more.Â
He is 51-28 (+22.92) on all soccer article predictions for SportsLine in 2023, bringing a profit just shy of $2,300 for $100 bettors. He also is on a stunning run on his English competition picks, going 28-5 (+23.19) on his Premier League, FA Cup and League Cup predictions. Anyone who follows him is way up.
Eimer knows Man U and star Marcus Rashford come in with massive confidence. A rousing 2-1 victory against Barcelona in the Europa League on Thursday ran their unbeaten run in all competitions to nine games. Their only loss in their last 20 matches (16-3-1) was to league leader Arsenal. Rashford didn't score Thursday but had six goals in the previous five matches and has 24 goals in all competitions this season. He travelled with the team but his availability is in some degree of uncertainty due to an ankle injury.
The expert also has considered that the Magpies are one of the best defensive teams in the world. They have conceded 15 goals in 23 matches, eight fewer than any other team in the Premier League. A 2-0 loss to Liverpool snapped a seven-match unbeaten run in all competitions (4-3-0), and they will be more rested. Having not won any sort of title for 54 years will be a major motivating factor on this big stage.
Now, Eimer has taken a deep dive into the Newcastle vs. Manchester United matchup and locked in his picks. He is taking the Under on the goal total, and he has another best bet that returns around +600, as well as a full breakdown of the match. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks and analysis before making any selections of your own.Â
