Carlisle United are 19/4 to pull off a Carabao Cup upset against Stoke City tonight.

Those odds are offered by Bet365, whose chief executive John Coates is the owner of the Championship club.

Other prices for a Blues victory include 4/1 (SkyBet) and 9/2 (BetVictor).

United's second-tier visitors are odds-on to make it through the second round game at Brunton Park.

Stoke are priced 3/5 for victory by Bet365, 8/15 by SkyBet and 6/10 by William Hill.

The draw is 16/5.

Emre Tezgel and Niall Ennis are among the 5/1 favourites to open the scoring for the Potters tonight.

Andrew Vidigal is 11/2 with Lewis Baker 8/1 and Josh Laurent 9/1.

Tonight sees Stoke's first trip to Brunton Park since 1985, when Carlisle chalked up a 3-0 victory in the old Division Two.

A repeat of that scoreline in United's favour is 80/1.

Stoke's only other visit, back in 1974, saw a 2-0 win in the Potters' favour, and another such result tonight is priced 7/1.

Carlisle are 16/1 for a 1-0 victory and the same price to win 2-1, while Stoke are 15/2 for a 2-1 triumph and 12/1 to win 3-0.

If it's a draw, the tie will go straight to penalties, and Stoke are 6/1 to go through after a shoot-out.

The Blues to progress via spot-kicks is 13/2.

Carlisle are 5/1 to keep former Blues loanee Steven Schumacher's side at bay with a clean sheet, while Stoke are 11/8 to leave Brunton Park having not conceded.
