Best Tip: Norwich to win

After looking at the bookies' odds and collated statistics regarding both sides ahead of this League Cup game, a bet on win / draw / win for Norwich to win in front of their own fans is the way we would recommend bettors go. We predict they will have too much for MK Dons, and head-to-head (H2H) records show they have the pedigree to do so. It could be a tighter than we expect, but Norwich to win is the bet come Saturday afternoon.
