Hard to take sides in US Open Cup tussle

This isn't a confident view but the short price for Tampa Bay makes them a no-bet. Birmingham don't look likely to get the win but they can make a fist of this.

This match-up is tricky to analyse with confidence but given the hosts' recent defensive record on their own patch, the draw is the recommendation. Solid on their own soil Tampa Bay have conceded at an average of just 0.7 goals per game over their last 3 matches.

In previous matches in this head-to-head 2 of the last 5 have ended with parity.

Tampa Bay are decent favourites and it is possible they just don't give anything away. It isn't standout value but the No BTTS bet seems fair enough.

Tampa Bay have drawn 4 of their last 8 matches adding to the fact that Birmingham have drawn 3 of their last 5 matches. Their most recent tied match was when they drew with FC Tulsa last Saturday. It's not the most exciting thing you'll read today and it feels like a match to keep at arm's length but the draw is food for thought. Deadlock is the pick after what will probably be a close encounter.
