SUNDAY’S ENGLISH TIPS: 3 APRIL

MAN CITY have a chance to cement their Champions League place on Sunday when they host Sunderland.

Spurs' draw at Wigan means City will move seven points clear of the fifth-placed men as well as climbing above Chelsea with a win. It's a massive incentive and I can't see City slipping against a Sunderland side that's lost five out of six and hasn't scored in their last three. 

City are a biggest 8-15 with Chandler, Stan James and William Hill with Sunderland 11-2 at bet365.

Sulking Mario Balotelli could be the man to back for first goal and he is 5-1 at Skybet and 6-4 with Paddy Power to score at any time.

Although City should win they've netted just three goals in their last five games so it could be a cagey start with the deadlock being broken after the 28th minute (1-1, Stan James).

The other Premier League clash sees Blackpool travelling to Fulham. Mark Hughes' Londoners have been strong at home recently and this looks a tough trip for the Seasiders.

I'll be on Fulham at 4-7 with Paddy Power and consider Bobby Zamora at 4-1 with Ladbrokes to score first.

Blackpool surprised sides earlier in the season but have conceded 16 in six and they could once again pay the price for being too open.

The one thing they have in their favour is Charlie Adam who netted two on his comeback from suspension in the last game at Blackburn.

The Scotland star is 11-1 with Coral to score first and 7-2 to net at any time.

Blackpool games usually produce goals and both teams should score at 8-11 with Coral and Chandler.

Recommendations

Man City v Sunderland (first goal after 28 mins, 1-1, Stan James)

Fulham v Blackpool (both teams to score, 8-11, Coral, Chandler)

Fulham v Blackpool (Zamora to score, 6-4, Paddy Power)
