IT'S a big weekend at the bottom of the Premier League table as the four favourites for the drop all face each other.
Freefalling Everton are in desperate need of a lift after taking no points from their first four games and crashing out of the EFL Cup to Southampton on penalties.
The bookies still think Sean Dyche's men will dodge the drop, with Leicester, Ipswich and Saints above them in the betting. But that might change if the lose at the King Power Stadium today and fall five points behind the Foxes.
A virus swept through Dyche's squad in midweek and Leicester will be out to make Everton feel even more sick by piling on the misery.

Leicester City vs Everton top betting tips
With Leicester having home advantage and in better form than Everton, they could be worth a punt for the win today at 29/20 with Betano.
Backing a tense and tight game is probably safer and the half-time draw pays 23/20 while betting against a goal in both halves is 20/21.
With both teams so desperate for a victory it could be a busy day for the ref. Over 4.5 cards pays 10/11 with Bet365 while Everton midfielder Abdoulaye Doucoure is 12/5 to go into the book.
Southampton vs Ipswich Town top tips
Southampton are the only other Premier League side yet to collect a point and they will be going all out for a win when Ipswich Town come calling.
Although this is another six-pointer in the drop battle, it could be a more entertaining game as Saints will stick to their principles and play out from the back.
Ipswich have plenty of firepower up front so I fancy goals, with BTTS and over 2.5 goals paying 39/40 in a Betano bet builder.
Saints kid Tyler Dibling caught the eye in their loss to Manchester United last weekend and the winger looks good at 5/4 for an effort on target at Bet365 if he starts again.
Kalvin Phillips has started the last two games for Ipswich and the midfielder is 15/8 at Bet365 for a second card this term.
Sunderland vs Middlesbrough top betting tips
There's a cracker of a derby in the Championship today as high-flying Sunderland host a dangerous Middlesbrough side.
Although Boro sit 10th at the moment, they have a squad that's capable of mounting a promotion challenge and a win today could send them into the play-off places.
Second-placed Sunderland suffered their first Championship defeat at Plymouth last week but are Betano's 7/5 favourites with home advantage.
The half-time draw is always a good option in a derby and that pays 11/10 here. Going for cards usually pays off in these kind of games too and over 5.5 cards pays 29/20 at Unibet.
Rangers vs Dundee top betting tips
Rangers make their long-awaited return to Ibrox today as they take on Dundee in the quarter-finals of the League Cup.
Reconstruction work on a stand still isn't finished so there will be a reduced capacity but fans will be glad to be home after a temporary residence at Hampden.
Gers responded to their painful derby defeat by grinding out a 1-0 win at Dundee United but there should be more thrills when the Dark Blues come calling.
Their Ibrox games with the Dark Blues ended in 3-1 and 5-2 wins last term so going for goals looks the best option today.
Combining BTTS and over 2.5 goals pays 21/20 at Bet365 while Rangers winger Valclav Cerny is 6/4 with the same firm for anytime scorer. The Czech missed out last week with illness but should return today.
For a long-odds punt, Rangers striker Cyriel Dessers is 14/1 to go into the book at Bet365 and has already collected two yellows this term.

Stuck a fiver on Dessers booking at 14/1 just for the value
Betfair shortening stakes on price boost for everyone it seems so fiver on Bowen SOT and will use other fiver for a BB.
BetMGM BB 6/1+ with 10% boost
Caicedo 2+ fouls and to be carded
Palmer SOT
Just realised PP have lowered my paddy rewards club to £5 free bet and I’ve been putting £10 bets on, is this the same for everyone?? Would’ve just got best odds elsewhere if I knew and stuck 5 BB’s on wi them. Anyway…
St Mirren v Hearts – 4+ cards
Ross County v St Johnstone – 4+ cards
Villa v Wolves – 9+ corners
Southampton v Ipswich – 9+ corners
Rangers v Dundee – 4+ corners
Rangers games just get acca insurance but Southampton game looks prime for corners.

Ladbrokes 6fold 2+ gls pays 7/2+
Norwich, Shef Utd, Bolton, Mansfield, Crewe & St Mirren
The threshold or limit to the players who get rewarded the most has gone up a lot. I’ve had SkyBet on £20 freebies on all free bets for 2 years+ . Bet exactly the same the last month or so and now they’ve dropped me to £5 this week feels like a right slap in the face. Paddy powers criteria is a bit stronger and have noticed going from free £25 with them going down to £5 and back on a couple of occasions when I haven’t bet as much with them.
ISL Indian super league
Punjab fc vs Odisha FC
Punjab FC will play their first home game of the season in the Indian Super League (ISL), and they will welcome Odisha FC as both teams will play their second match of the season. This match will take place in Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Delhi ,Punjab FC’s star player Luka Majcen will be out due to an injury that he sustained in a previous match this is a big blow for them as Bakenga is still new to the league and will take some time to adapt and this creates a lot of problems for Punjab FC.
After joining Odisha FC, Boumous has brought a new sense of creativity to the team and under Lobera he is performing very well. In pre-season tournaments as well he was the best player for the Juggernauts.

Cheers cocker thought it looked a good price only just about landed mind , gotta admit my studying didn’t go as far as Kyle’s and taking a look at the Spanish ref though lol
Sometimes we are better off not studying mate 😊
Referee is one of most important factors to consider when betting on card markets and influences bookies pricing, I reckon your bet would have been odds-on if a card happy ref had been appointed and I would have taken it on even at odds of 4/5. Last time Javier Rojas handed out 5 or more cards in a league match was before last Christmas, he had the heavily card – laden Getafe vs Rayo match other week and only handed out 3 yellows. He is honestly the absolute worst!

Both teams to score 19-20 bet365 NAP ⚽.
Stats that drew me to this game were the defensive frailties of these sides.
Vittoria conceded in 14 of last 15 home games.
Juventude conceded in 17 of last 18 away games
Juventude also seen BTTS in 13 of their last 13 games
12 of last 13 of course 😂
Looks a good spot Elvis
See we have another troll on the thread.
See how long admin takes to remove it 🤔
Bit of an over reaction,he just mentioned about another 0-0 draw, no malice in that,scroll pass👍
Earlier Westham/Chelsea BB lost no 4hth goal and no goal or assist for Bowen ,

JOSHUA v DUBOIS 10pm
Joshua to be knocked down 7/4
(SkyBet)
Hope your right but AJ will win,very clever boxer
Outstanding pick, Chug 👏
Was looking for a punt on the match and followed, nice one 👍
Knew he’d drop him same old AJ can’t take a punch to save his life.
Perhaps not,career ended
Joshua is a fraud, a modern day Frank bruno, totally robotic with a glass jaw and carefully managed during his career
Usyk and fury are light years better than the rest of the heavyweights.
Glad dubois won though as he seems a grounded individual and hasn’t really got involved in the trash talk that most do.
He didn’t regard himself as a champion as he was awarded the belt and said he wanted to win to feel a true champion and he duly delivered 🥊
Fraud NO,he won belts I believe,just like football anyone can win,stats mean nowt as its real time,I may be wrong but see bookies are still in business 🤔
NAP In Brazil lost finished 1-0 🚮.
Red card in Argentina arrived late on to ease my pain a bit though 🔴
