The 1st round of the EFL Cup is starting on Tuesday night. One of the matches is going to be between Plymouth and Leyton Orient. This season, Plymouth is playing in the Championship while Leyton is a part of League One. In this game, I predict that Plymouth is going to win.

Last season, Plymouth was the best team in League One with 31 wins in 48 games and a total of 101 points. The team was a dominant force at home with 20 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses, a total of 44 goals scored and only 16 conceded! During the summer, the team has added some players from teams like Celtic, Norwich, Swansea and Twente which shows that their goals are the highest in this upcoming season. The team had 3 wins in 5 friendly games and they started the season with a 3:1 win over Huddersfield.

Leyton was the best League Two team the previous season. Despite having the best record overall, on the road, the team didn't play so well as they had 11 wins, 7 draws, 5 losses, a total of 29 goals scored and 21 conceded. Over the summer, Leyton had some transfers but those weren't as great as Plymouth. During the friendly games, Leyton had 3 draws and 4 losses. The start of the season wasn't great because they lost to Charlton on the road by 0:1.

Both teams lost in the 1st round of the EFL Cup last season. Now Plymouth has the upper hand. Of course, the rosters will be different from the 1st round games in their tournaments but the hosts should have bigger depth as their team is valued at around 15 million euros while Leyton is valued at only 5 million. The goal for Leyton is to survive in League One so they won't pay a big attention to this tournament, especially playing on the road against a much better opponent which is great at home. Leyton has only advanced beyond the first round of the EFL Cup on one occasion in those ensuing eight seasons, suggesting they are unlikely to have much chance of causing an upset away to their Championship opponents in midweek.

联赛杯第一轮比赛将于周二晚上开始。其中一场比赛将在普利茅斯和莱顿东方队之间进行。这个赛季，普利茅斯参加了英冠联赛，而莱顿则是英甲联赛的一部分。在这场比赛中，我预测普利茅斯会赢。

上赛季，普利茅斯在48场比赛中取得了31场胜利，拿到了101分，是英甲联赛中表现最好的球队。这支球队在主场取得了20胜1平2负的成绩，总共进了44球，只丢了16球!在夏天，球队从凯尔特人，诺维奇，斯旺西和特温特等球队引进了一些球员，这表明他们在即将到来的赛季中进球最多。球队在5场友谊赛中取得3胜，本赛季以3:1战胜哈德斯菲尔德开始。

莱顿队是上个赛季英乙最好的球队。尽管拥有最好的战绩，但在客场比赛中，球队表现不佳，他们取得了11胜7平5负，进29球失21球的成绩。整个夏天，莱顿有了一些转会，但都没有普利茅斯那么好。在友谊赛中，莱顿队3平4负。这个赛季的开始并不好，因为他们在客场以0:1输给了查尔顿。

上个赛季，两支球队都在联赛杯首轮输球。现在普利茅斯占了上风。当然，这两支球队的阵容将与第一轮有所不同，但东道主球队的阵容深度应该更大，因为他们的球队价值约为1500万欧元，而莱顿队的价值仅为500万欧元。莱顿的目标是在联赛中生存下来，这样他们就不会太关注这场比赛，尤其是在客场对阵一个在主场表现出色的对手。在接下来的8个赛季里，莱顿只有一次在联赛杯第一轮中晋级，这表明他们不太可能在周中客场击败他们的英冠对手。
