Wycombe Wanderers v Bristol Rovers Prediction: 7/5 Ings to help down Rovers

The departure of Michael Duff so early in the season turned heads at Wycombe Wanderers, but they have won three and drawn one of their four games since he was relieved of his duties.

The Chairboys will be looking to continue that solid form on Tuesday evening when they host Bristol Rovers in the group stage of the EFL Trophy.

Wycombe Wanderers v Bristol Rovers Prediction

Best Bet: Wycombe Wanderers to win @ 8/11

Wycombe's dramatic start to the season has finally started to calm down, with interim manager Tom Hounsell steadying the ship after Duff's exit.

The Chairboys have won three and drawn one of their four games under the 30-year-old and look a solid bet to extend that good run with a win over Rovers in the EFL Trophy.

The Gas started the season strongly but three losses from their last four League Two games have really taken the wind out of their sails.

Their away record has been particularly poor, with four defeats from their five road trips, and this visit to Wycombe spells trouble as a result.

The hosts have an impressive record against these opponents, winning the last seven meetings between the two sides and their deeper squad should be crucial to success in this cup clash.

Against a better rested team from one division higher, take Rovers' losing run to continue.

Alternative Bet: Danny Ings anytime scorer @ 7/5

Wycombe have managed to pull off something of a coup by signing former England international Danny Ings and the striker scored off the bench on his debut against Reading last time out.

Keen to get him up to speed, Hounsell could start the 34-year-old in this cup tie and he looks a tempting price to get on the scoresheet against a team from the fourth tier.

Ings may not have been quite as prolific in recent years, but his class should tell at this level and he is fancied to find the net.

Wycombe Wanderers v Bristol Rovers Bet Builder Tip

  • Wycombe to win

  • Both teams to score

  • Caolan Boyd-Munce anytime scorer

    Pays 19/2

Wycombe look set to dominate this clash against a poor-travelling Rovers outfit.

However, both teams have scored in ten of the Gas' 11 games this season and a repeat of that looks likely in this cup tie.

Wanderers midfielder Caolan Boyd-Munce has already scored his first goal of the new campaign in the EFL Trophy, netting against Chelsea Under-21s earlier in the group stages.

Only three Wanderers players have had more shots this term than the Northern Ireland international and he can get on the scoresheet again in this game.
