Nottingham Forest have the chance to take a big stride towards Premier League safety tonight when they make the trip to Sunderland.
Vitor Pereira's side head to the Stadium of Light knowing a win would move them eight points clear of third-bottom Tottenham in the relegation battle.
They crushed Wolves 4-1 in their last outing but now take on a Black Cats side who have lost just three times at home all season.
Sunderland vs Nottingham Forest top betting tips
Sunderland still have plenty to play for themselves as they chase a European place in their first top-flight campaign after winning promotion.
Regis Le Bris' men sit 11th but they're only five points behind sixth-placed Brighton so the Black Cats should be going all out for a win.
Their last game was a thrilling 4-3 defeat at Aston Villa but it has ended in 1-0 scorelines in the last two Sunderland home games.
That makes it hard to predict if we'll see a lot of action tonight but with each side going for a win BTTS looks decent value at 10/11 with QuinnBet.
The midfield battle should be spicy tonight and Sunderland veteran Granit Xhaka is a tempting 10/3 at Bet365 to pick up his seventh card of the season.
Leicester City vs Millwall
Millwall are still in with a shout of automatic promotion to the Premier League and can pile some pressure on Ipswich with a win at relegated Leicester tonight.
The Lions trail the second-placed Tractor Boys only by goal difference but they've played a game more so their remaining two matches look like must-win fixtures.
This should be a good time to visit the King Power Stadium with the Foxes on a massive downer after their relegation to League One was confirmed.
So it's not a big surprise to see Alex Neil's side as odds-on favourites, although the 10/13 on offer at BetMGM still looks decent value. Adding on over 1.5 goals boosts the odds to 21/20 at Bet365.
Millwall need to go for it so I also fancy them at -1 in the corner handicap, which pays 11/8 at BOYLESports.
St Johnstone vs Raith Rovers
There will be a party atmosphere in Perth tonight as St Johnstone celebrate their coronation as SPFL Championship kings with a home game against Raith Rovers.
A 2-0 win away to Dunfermline sealed the deal for Simo Valakari's men on Tuesday night and they can now do the Pars a favour by fending off their Fife rivals.
Raith trail fourth-placed Dunfermline by five points with just two games to go so it's win or bust for them this evening in the race for a promotion play-off slot.
Rovers need to go for it so that bodes well for a decent watch and combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals pays 7/5 with Ladbrokes.

It's a McDiarmid Park farewell for Saints star Josh McPake ahead of his summer move to Hearts. The winger will want to sign off with a goal and is 6/4 at Bet365 for anytime scorer.

Last round of fixtures in Dutch 2nd tier tonight, worth a few pennies for fun on the usual over 1.5/2.5/btts 🤞
Tomorrow :-
Over 3.5,4.0 Asian line double @ 2.6/1 (bet365)
Grei vs Ullern
Vard Haugesund vs Gneist
Vard Haugesund vs Gneist
Over 4.5mgs @ 6/4
If given the opportunity to put an over 3.5mgs double on the above games I would be all over it so happy enough with these lines. Most likely over 3.5mgs appear at Hills or skybet tomorrow but tend to find the odds drop overnight.
I’d have expected over 2.5 for both these games to be 1/4 or 1/5 so to have both sitting at 3/10 lends itself to better odds on more goals. Ullern have been excellent to back for goals for about 18 months and 15 goals in their first 3 league games suggests it will be similar again, while Grei will probably take a few doings as they are out their depth in this league in my opinion.
Vard Haugesund should be too good for most of the teams in their league, especially at home, and could see them easily hitting 3 or 4 themselves here.
Good luck 🤞
I’ll be all over this sir
Sunderland v Forest
Over 3.5 goals 11/4
Only going by Forests away form, they seem to be hitting a few 2s and the odd 3 whereas Sunderland seem to be capable of getting 1 or 2 themselves. Worth a few quid anyway
🙂
Well in spursman followed on that was trying to give you a like but its not working mate
Going for the admin treble. Just over 16s at Boylesports 🤞
The only time I’ve wanted VAR in a game – Raith Rovers unjustly denied a goal for offside. Well in on 2 out of 3 admin 👏
