Visitors Ipswich are second in League One and they have avoided defeat in their last three outings, beating Derby and Port Vale before drawing 4-4 at Charlton last time out.
With the main focus being earning promotion to the Championship, the Tractor Boys could take their eye off the ball on Monday and Bracknell Town will be eager to take advantage of any lapse in concentration.
Tuesday 8th November

| Odds | Bournemouth 31/20, Draw 9/4, Everton 13/8 |
Bournemouth and Everton's main focus may be on the Premier League and ensuring their survival this season, but they will have to put thoughts of earning league wins aside when they clash in the third round of the EFL Cup on Tuesday.
The Cherries have not gone past the third round since reaching the quarters in 2018/19, while Everton were knocked out at this stage of the competition last year when losing to Queens Park Rangers on penalties.
Ironically, the two teams will also meet each other in the top flight on Saturday - the final game for both sides before the season breaks for World Cup 2022 in Qatar.

| How to watch | Sky Sports |
| Odds | New Zealand 4/5, Pakistan 1/1 |
New Zealand topped Group 1 in the Super 12s to reach the semi-finals of the T20 World Cup and standing in their way of making a second final in a row is Pakistan, who made the last four despite losing their first two Super 12s matches.
The Black Caps lost to Australia in the 2021 final, but they will be confident of going one better this time and lifting the trophy for the first time. Pakistan are always a threat but despite reaching the semi-finals, they have struggled to hit the same standards as New Zealand and an improved performance is required from Babar Azam’s troops.

England managed to book their place in the semi-finals with a final Super 12s win over Sri Lanka and they will face India next for a place in the final.
