England · League Cup · Tue, 25 Aug 2026

Doncaster meet Middlesbrough in the England, League Cup on 25 August 2026 at 19:30 (Africa/Lagos). The recorded score is 1–3.

On the 1X2 market the shortest price is Middlesbrough at 1.62. Once the bookmaker margin is removed, that outcome carries about 58.2% of the implied chance, with the other two outcomes sharing the rest. A short price means the market rates that side more likely.

The 2.5-goal line is priced shorter on Over 2.5 (1.67, about 56.3% after the margin). Both teams to score is shorter on Yes at 1.75.
