Liverpool can move to within and three points of the top of the table, even if it’s for just 48 hours, with a win in today’s early kick-off in the Premier League.
The Reds make the trip south to face Brighton who are sliding down the table and currently sit 13th, their lowest position of the season. A run of four defeats has seen them score just one goal and they look a shadow of the team that held Jurgen Klopp’s men to a 2-2 at Anfield earlier in the season.
Liverpool are 1/2 to win but we can get 4/5 by taking advantage of an anomoly at Bet365. Combing a Reds win with two Liverpool goals comes in at 3/4 on a BetBuilder but if you take Over 1.5 Goals for Both Teams Combined instead it pays 4/5. It’s effectively the same bet but we can squeeze a few extra points by taking this route.
It’s anyone’s guess which Manchester United and which Tottenham Hotspur will turn up at Old Trafford in the early evening kick-off. Both sides have been excellent and dire at times this season but off the back of an embarassing derby defeat last week Ralf Rangnick will be expecting a response from his side.
However Spurs have the ability to hurt United and produced one of their best performances of the season in their 5-0 rout of Everton last weekend. Whether they can do it two weeks in a row remains to be seen, but they could be worth small interest at 2/1. It could be a game full of golas but the bookies aren’t taking many chances pricing up Over 2.5 at 8/11. Instead, look to two or more first half goals at a tasty looking 6/4.
In the Championship it could be a case of how many for Fulham as they cruise towards the title. Second-bottom Barnsley are the hosts and again we eke a bit more value out of Bet365‘s BetBuilder. Using the same bet as the Liverpool game we can get 3/4 on a Fulham win and Over 1.5 Goals Combined.
Hearts and St Mirren kick-off Scottish Cup quarter-final weekend in Scotland with a live 7.45pm kick-off (BBC Scotland, iPlayer) in Edinburgh.
After a bit of a lull in form the Jambos have got things back on track with seven points from their last nine and with third place in the league all but tied up Robbie Neilson can give the cup his full attention. However there’s a mounting injury list at Tynecastle with up to 11 players carrying knocks, although Neilson expects six of them to be available for Saturday night’s clash.
Things haven’t got off to a great start for Saints under Robinson but they scored their first goal of his tenure, an injury-time one, at Dundee in midweek to nick all three points and will travel to Tynecastle believing they can book a semi-final berth for the second season in a row.
With no replays this season this one could go the distance and the draw is priced at 13/5.
Annan have been popular with punter this week at home to Elgin. They’re well behind Kelty Hearts in League Two but lead the way in being the best of the rest. Back them to score two or more at 11/10 at home to Elgin.
