AFC Wimbledon vs Newcastle Betting Tips: BTTS / Over 2.5
An entertaining contest can be expected with an on-form Wimbledon likely to lift their game for the visit of EPL opponents Newcastle.
The home side come into this League Cup matchup unbeaten in six matches after a goalless draw against Bradford City on Saturday. The Dons won three-in-a-row in League Two before their weekend stalemate against the Bantams.
Johnnie Jackson´s side secured their place in Tuesday's cup tie with a sensational victory against Premier League opponents Ipswich. After a 2:2 draw at The Cherry Red Records Stadium, the Dons held their nerve to claim victory via penalty shootout.
Unbeaten in 11 of their last 12 home matches, Wimbledon will fancy their chances of testing a Newcastle side that struggles to keep clean sheets on the road. Eddie Howe´s men saw BTTS in each of their last five matches, and in each of their last six on their travels.
A 3:1 defeat at Fulham on Saturday underlined the defensive vulnerabilities that remain in the Magpies defence. Newcastle conceded at least one goal in 15 of their last 16 away matches.
Considering AFC Wimbledon´s fine form, and Newcastle´s defensive issues, the League Two hosts cannot be under-estimated on Tuesday, and I expect both teams to score in a high-scoring cup contest.
AFC Wimbledon team news
Dons boss Jackson has a full squad to choose from on Tuesday. Captain Jake Reeves is expected to return to the selection after missing out on Saturday.
