No-one seems to want to win the race for fourth place in the Premier League and there could be more twists and turns today.
Arsenal host Man Utd at lunchtime and a win for the Gunners could all but kill-off the Red Devils' chances of nicking a Champions League spot for next season.
Neither side have been in good form but Arsenal's 4-2 win at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday was the shot in the arm they needed after three successive defeats. United's second mauling at the hands of Liverpool summed up their season although there could be some light at the end of the tunnel with the announcement this week of Erik ten Hag's arrival in time for next season.
There's no telling which version of Arsenal nor Man Utd will turn up at the Emirates so we'll focus on goals in this one. It looks like Cristiano Ronaldo will return to the United set-up so they'll carry more of a goal threat, with that in mind the Over 2.5 line looks worth backing at 4/5 with SBK. It's even money if also add in BTTS.
Spurs are the team currently in possession of that fourth spot and they could take advantage of any dropped points at the Emirates but a trip to the Brentford Community Stadium is as hard as it comes at the moment. Only Liverpool have won more points than Brentford in their last six matches.
Christian Eriksen has inspired the Bees' best form of the season which has catapulted them to the relative safety of 12th place in the table.
Spurs demonstrated a fragile mentality once again last weekend when they lost at home to Brighton after a run of six wins in seven in the league. Much like Arsenal and Man Utd this Tottenham side are so unpredictable, they could easily romp to a three or goal win here but equally they could come unstuck again against in-form opponents.
You could be backing Spurs at odds-on in which case, Brentford look a bit of value at 10/3. You can also cover the draw at 5/6 or back the Bees in the Draw No Bet market at 2/1.
Elsewhere in the Premier League Steven Gerrard and Brendan Rodgers renew old rivalries and Aston Villa fans will be looking nervously over their shoulders following four straight defeats. Jamie Vardy could return for the Foxes and if he does the 9/5 available on the Leicester City win will be popular.
Man City should cement their position at the top of the table with a comfortable afternoon against Watford. City have scored a whopping 42 in their last 10 against the Hornets so it should be a case of how many for Pep's men. Over 3.5 City goals pays 6/4.
In the Championship Bournemouth 13/10 could take advantage of Fulham‘s midweek promotion celebrations. The Cottagers wrapped their return to the top flight on Tuesday and might lack the motivation to overcome a Cherries side that in a promising position to join Fulham in being automatically promoted.
It could be a day of celebration for Cove Rangers in Scottish League One where a win would secure their place in the second tier of Scottish football for the first time in their history. The Aberdeenshire side only need a point to wrap up the title but they should do it in style against second bottom Dumbarton. At just 4/11 to claim the three points add in Over 1.5 Cove goals in a BetBuilder to take it to a more backable 4/6.

Ronaldo to score & be carded 23/2+ Bet365
I like that too Alves.. I think he’ll score and decent chance he’ll whip the jersey off with a message on his under armor
That’s my thinking tae Fitzy, might seem harsh considering but ref will have to book him if it does happen
Good shout , had a few on it for interest 👏🏻👏🏻
Great shout Alves and Fitzy! Skin of the teeth with the booking 😀

🇳🇴Stromgodset vs Sandefjord🇳🇴
🔘Bet 1: 11+ match corners: 11/10 (Skybet)
💰5pts NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
🔘Bet 2: 16+ match corners: 9/1 (Bet365)
💰1 point Longshot ⭐️
The Norwegian league is starting to settle now and patterns are starting to emerge. What has been noticeable is the amount of corners in both Stromgodset and Sandefjord matches.
Stromgodset sit at the top of the match corners count for home teams (averaging 16 corners per game) and Sandefjord sit at the top of match corners count for away games (averaging an incredible 18 corners per game!)
I know it’s still early season and that corners + corners don’t always = corners but with stats like that from their opening few games, 11+ corners for odds against has to be taken on in my opinion.
Nothing much else really taking my fancy out there today. Tomorrow’s fixture seem better.
Good luck all
Fancy this one for a few corners too, hopefully more for the home team! Good luck 👍
Kris how many 1st half corners do you think ?
Fingers crossed Bigwigg
Chelsea girl- Stromgodset games have averaged 7 FHC and Sandefjord 6. Make of that what you will 👍🏻
Arsenal vs Man Utd
Odegaard over 0.5 SOT 11/10

Good afternoon guys
Looking in the English non league again today and two games in the Northern premier league took my eye.
Grantham v South Shields
Stalybridge v Buxton
Two teams at the top of the league with only 3 points separating them and both playing away this afternoon.
A point for Buxton will see them as champions whilst Shields know they must win to give themselves any chance of automatic promotion.
A double for both away teams will give a return of 1.69/1 with bet365
Double @ 13/10 (bet365)
Odd over 1.5tgs
Stromsgodset 5+ corners

Would have been good to see what your bet was earlier mate
🇧🇷 Atlético Cearense v Ferroviário 🇧🇷
21:00
Brazilian Serie C
Atlético cearense to score 11-8 🇧🇷 at SKYBET..
Match odds of cearense 8-1 ferroviaro 1-3 make this a bit of a LONGSHOT but worth a dabble.
It’s the head to head that interests me here.
These have both lost their first 2 games.
Ferroviaro are a decent but low scoring serie c team and cearense were promoted from serie d last season
I suspect the difference in odds is more to do with cearense’s rubbish efforts in recent state (off season) cups.
*** These 2 have met 8 times in the last 3 years in state cups, 3 here and 5 in ferroviaro, all 8 were BTTS ***
Ferroviaro have conceded in 9 of their last 10 games, 8 seeing BTTS.
Ferroviaro conceded in 8 of last 10 away games.

Any thoughts on Fury v Whyte chaps?
Incidentally, PaddyPower running a Place a £5 #WhatOddsPaddy & get one free promo.
I think Whyte has the obligatory punchers chance but as Fury has proven, he can get back up from pretty much any punch and will likely get his opponent onthe canvas at some point.
All things considered, the best looking bet for those that fancy Whyte to land a good ‘un (I do) is this:
BOTH FIGHTERS TO BE KNOCKED DOWN & FURY TO WIN

Tonight’s under-hyped & under-promoted WBC Heavyweight clash….
The one angle that sticks out for me is for both Fury and Whyte to be knocked down (7/2) NAP
I’m expecting a Fury win on points, but Whyte looks far more focused than normal, so I expect this to be Fury’s toughest fight in years.
The fight to go the distance is my NB – also 9/4 with Sky.
GL All 🤞
Don’t disagree with you at all there Jack – have posted my thoughts above and if you addFury to take the win which is likely, you’ll get 9/2 👍
Good luck pal!
Sorry Hull, I was in a rush and missed your post.
Hopefully this will come in. My recent form has been bloody awful! 🤞
All done! Nice uppercut from Fury – shame Whyte couldn’t have made a bit more of an impact!
Agreed. Youd think with all the planning and the supposed focus, he’d have been much more up for that! That was by far the biggest fight of Whytes career and tbh, I expected more.
He’s made his money and I can’t see him offering anymore at world level. Such a shame as he has that left hook which can cause huge damage.
Verona 😔 always last team that beats u
