Today I would like to predict the winning team of the English football “EFL Cup 2019-2020”.
In addition to league games, there are two types of cup games in England: “EFL Cup” and “FA Cup”.
Today, a total of 92 club teams from the English Premier League to the 4th EFL League 2 participate in the EFL Cup.
Although the prize amount is low at about 14.92 million yen compared to the FA Cup, the winning club team will be given the right to participate in the European League, so there will be 2 EFL Championships, 3 EFL Leagues 1 and 4 EFL Leagues The second club team aims to win with the goal of Giant Killing.
Last year's 2018-19 season, Manchester City defeated Chelsea at the end of the penalty shootout and won the second straight victory.
Let's check the teams that have won the past 10 years.
