THERE are five games in England and Everton are possibly the best value.
Davie Moyes' men have won their last two to move into their customary top-half place.
To be fair to Tony Pulis' men they were at home and the draw with Dynamo Kiev has put them through to the last 32.
Stoke can now concentrate on the league but I think they'll find it tough against Everton who can edge to three points. They are a best 4-5 at Ladbrokes and Coral. To be fair Stoke-based bet365's 9-2 looks big while the draw is 13-5 at Chandler.
The other EPL game sees Martin O'Neill's Sunderland head for Wolves. O'Neill leave team to Eric Black but he'll be watching closely and if his players can't get up for this one there's something wrong.
New boss syndrome should play its part and I'll be backing Sunderland at 85-40 with Chandler. Wolves are 6-4 with Coral and the draw 12-5 at Ladbrokes.
I also like the look of Carling Cup semi-finalists Cardiff at home to Birmingham in the Championship. Cardiff were superb in seeing off Blackburn last week while Birmingham were in Europa League action in Portugal.
Cardiff are going well on all fronts and having won five in a row at home they should be confident of making it super six. Take the Welshman at 21-20 with Chandler and Blue Square. Brum are 14-5 with Chandler who make the draw 13-5.
In the FA Cup I tipped Totton in the last round and they fairly demolished Bradford PA 8-1. Next up for them on Sunday is Bristol Rovers at home and I reckon they can cause a shock by forcing a replay.
Rovers are just 4-6 with the likes of Coral, bet365 and Chandler but are struggling in the bottom half of League Two and won just two of their last six.
It's a big day for Evo-Stick Southern title chasers Totton, who are 22-5 at Chandler, and a draw at 3-1 with Chandler isn't out of the question.
I was also on Sutton against Kettering in the last round but they have a much tougher assignment at home to Notts County.
Sutton, a best 5-1 at Ladbrokes and Chandler, are going well in Blue Square South but County are League One play-off contenders and should live up to their 8-13 price tag with Coral and Chandler.
Recommendations
- Everton (4-5, Ladbrokes, Coral)
- Cardiff (21-20, Chandler, Blue Square)
- Totton +1 (11-10, Ladbrokes, Paddy Power)
