Monday’s football tips: Cherries star Semenyo 6/4 to win over 1.5 fouls in showdown with United

AFC Bournemouth have plummeted down the Premier League table and face a tough task getting back on track away to Manchester United tonight.

The Cherries started the season in style, losing just one of their first nine league games, but they've since gone six matches without a victory.

That has seen Andoni Iraola's men fall into the bottom half, and they now take on a Manchester United side who have lost just one of their last nine Premier League matches.

Manchester United vs Bournemouth top betting tips

Although Manchester United have picked up some form, they still haven't been convincing and Ruben Amorim's men have collected just a point from their last two Old Trafford outings.

So I'm wary of backing them at a 5/6 tonight as you're never quite sure what you will get from this United side.

Bournemouth have fired blanks in their last two games but I still fancy them to get some joy against a defence that shipped a goal to rock-bottom Wolves last Monday.

BTTS and over 2.5 goals only pays 17/20 at Ladbrokes but there's a bit more value in backing both goalies to make over 2.5 saves at 13/10 with Bet365.

Antoine Semenyo has gone off the boil for Bournemouth but is still a threat with his pace and power. Bet365 price him at 6/4 to be fouled over 1.5 times and that looks worth a punt.

Rangers vs Hibernian

Danny Rohl has won just five of his 13 games since taking the reins at Rangers but if they bank three points against Hibs at Ibrox tonight it would keep them in the Premiership title race.

That Gers are still in the picture after winning only six of their 15 league games this season under Rohl and predecessor Russell Martin says everything about the crisis on the other side of the city at Celtic.

Hearts are the team to catch and Rangers trail them by 12 points but Rohl's men also have two games in hand and head to Tynecastle next weekend.

A win over the green half of Edinburgh would set them up nicely for that huge game but Hibs could be a tough nut to crack.

They sit just two points behind Rangers in the table but lost 1-0 when these sides faced off at Easter Road earlier in the season.

So I fancy Gers to edge another victory tonight and they're 17/20 with Bet365, which must be their longest odds for a home game against the Hibees for many a year.

This fixture is often fiery and combining cards for midfield rivals Dan Barlaster and Connor Barron pays a whopping 18/1 at Ladbrokes.

Sheffield Wednesday vs Derby County

Sheffield Wednesday are doomed to the drop in the EFL Championship so Derby County will be looking to give their play-off hopes a boost by banking three points at Hillsborough tonight.

The Owls are a whopping 20 points adrift of safety and sit on minus nine points after being punished for the financial chaos behind the scenes.

It's now 13 games without a win for Sheffield Wednesday so it's no surprise to see them as 49/20 outsiders.

Derby are 11/8 at Betfred and that looks worth a punt, even if their own form hasn't been great of late, with a draw and two defeats in their last three.

BTTS has landed in the last eight for the Rams so that bet also looks decent at 22/25 with BetMGM. Adding on over 2.5 goals boosts the odds to 6/4 with SkyBet.
