LIVERPOOL have looked a one-man team in January – unfortunately for them that one man has been in Gabon.

With Sadio Mane at AFCON the Reds have crashed out both cups – to Southampton and Wolves – and suffered a third home defeat to Swansea.

It's no wonder Jurgen Klopp sent a private jet to Africa to bring him home the minute Senegal were knocked out and he's likely to be on the bench tonight when leaders Chelsea visit.

A fourth home defeat in 11 days is on the cards and an away win is tempting at 2-1 with McBookie.

However, the Reds do get up for big games at home as they showed in beating Man City and Spurs.

Having said that Liverpool look weak – they can't keep a clean sheet and none of their strikers are scoring.

It's a surprise Chelsea are underdogs and we can keep the stalemate on side and back the Blues draw no bet at 21-20 with McBookie.

Another side who shouldn't be underdogs tonight are Burnley at home to a Leicester outfit without an away win.

Burnley look big at 21-10 with McBookie so again try draw no bet at 11-10. Just to score against a side with no clean sheets on the road Burnley are 2-5 at McBookie and Ladbrokes. That was pointed out by Jordan on Monday night.

Swansea are also a nice price to net at home to Southampton who have sold Jose Fonte and have fellow centre-half Virgil van Dijk injured. The Swans hit three at Anfield and again Jordan points out they are 2-5 at Ladbrokes to hit the target.

Watford can't be too happy at facing Arsenal two days after losing to Millwall in the FA Cup. The Gunners played reserves at Southampton and won 5-0 and haven't conceded a goal in seven home matches.

Back them minus one at 4-6 with Coral and try Alexis Sanchez to score first at 3-1 with William Hill.

Spurs also played a second string against Wycombe but had to call for some big guns such as Dele Alli as they eventually overturned the League Two side 4-3.

Now they head to a Sunderland side that hasn't beaten them in 13 games. Davie Moyes' men can be tough to beat at home but I'm on Spurs but they are short at 2-5 with McBookie and Betfred.

It's an away price I don't like so instead consider Harry Kane to score at 5-6 with Paddy Power. Former Spurs striker Jermain Defoe is 3-1 with Paddy Power to net.

Crystal Palace are still without a league win under Sam Allardyce and are unlikely to get it at a Bournemouth outfit who are 10-9 at 888sport.

There are seven games in the Championship and none look easy to call with Nottingham Forest the only odds-on team as they play host to Rotherham.

    Burnley are decent odds to beat Leicester tonight but like you said Draw no bet is safer option.

    Dont uderstand the part where you said ‘none of their strikers are scoring’ for liverpool?
    Origi scored in last game Firmino scored 2 in the game before. The only striker thats not scoring is Daniel Sturridge!

    I also think Palace will not lose tonight but thats risky!
    Best bet for liverpool chelsea is both to score. The away team has been winning this fixture for some time. Personally think it will be a good draw
