The EFL Cup final will be held at the Wembley Stadium in London, where Manchester City and Manchester United will meet in a neutral stadium. Although there is a clear difference in strength between the two sides, they are traditional rivals who are afraid of each other, and with a battle to the death, it is believed that most of them will not make any rash moves in the first half, so as to avoid being attacked by their opponents. Looking at the last 4 matches between these two teams, there are 3 times when the first half total was 1 goal or less, so we might as well bet on the median of 1.5 goals in the half-time breakdown.

Manchester City has already won the Premier League title this season, of course, they hope to win the EFL Cup again and become the "Double Champions", coupled with the fact that the "Blue Moon" has won all of their last 3 fights against the "Red Devils", including a 2-1 win in the final of the last EFL Cup, so it is indeed possible to look forward to a higher level of performance.
However, considering that this is the ultimate battle, even if the strength of Manchester City is superior, it is estimated that it will not be too far ahead, always the United lineup is full of excellent players, including striker Helen, midfielder Bono Fernandes have good shooting skills, "Blue Moon" need to guard against rivals to play the blitz, it is believed that the first half of the first half will be to stabilize the position of the prerequisite, and then slowly organize the offensive.
As for Man Utd, they know they are not as strong as Man City, so they can't afford to fight with their rivals, so they can only deploy heavy defense and wait for the chance to play surprise attack. The "Red Devils" used to adopt a counter-attacking style against the "Blue Moon", and they have tasted the sweetness, including the EPL meeting in March this year, where United relied on a counter-attack to take a 1-0 lead at half-time. In addition, United's injury problem has been improved, even though Harry Makouni is still tired, the other two stalwarts, Wahlani and Ricciardo Martinez, are back, so there is no need for Kasmiri to play as a stalwart to consolidate the defense, and with sufficient physical strength, they are able to withstand the strong attack of City at the first half. In the first half of the match, they were able to withstand City's strong attack.
