Mondays top tips 2

The festive games keep coming thick and fast in the Premier League and there's a cracker tonight as Manchester United host in-form Newcastle.

The Magpies have surged back into contention for a top-four place after winning three successive league games and they've also booked a spot in the EFL Cup semi-finals during a terrific run of form.

But while the Toon Army have enjoyed a merry Christmas, Manchester United fans have been drowning their sorrows.

The initial optimism surrounding Ruben Amorim's arrival as boss has evaporated and the Portuguese desperately needs a win after a run of three successive defeats in all competitions.

Manchester United vs Newcastle United top betting tips

This is a tricky one to call and it's reflected in the odds, with Manchester United 13/8 at BoyleSports and Newcastle 7/5 with the same firm.

The Magpies look the safer bet on recent form and they boast the Premier League's hottest striker right now in Alexander Isak.

The Swede has netted seven times in his last six outings so the 7/5 at BoyleSports for him to grab another goal looks good value.

Manchester United have drawn a blank in their last two games but they boast too much firepower for that drought to continue. BTTS pays just 4/9 for this one but if you combine that with no draw the odds increase to 6/5.

Aston Villa v Brighton and Hove Albion top betting tips

Brighton's impressive start under new boss Fabian Hurzeler seems like a long time ago and they head to Aston Villa in low spirits after going six games without a win.

Four of those matches have been draws but Villa have been so strong at home that I fancy them for the win here at 10/11 with BoyleSports. Adding on over 1.5 goals boosts the odds to 13/10.

Having Jhon Duran ruled out with a suspension is a blow for Unai Emery but Olly Watkins is a more than able deputy.

The striker will relish his chance to shine after a couple of games on the bench and he's 5/4 for anytime scorer.

Brighton aren't renowned for putting the boot in and have picked up just three cards across their last three games. That makes going for under 45.5 booking points worth a look here at 11/10.

Ipswich Town vs Chelsea top betting tips

Chelsea's Premier League title push has suffered a blow in the last two games with Enzo Maresca's side drawing with Everton then losing at home to Fulham.

But it would be a surprise if they slipped up again on the road against an Ipswich side who have lost five of their last six matches.

The Tractor Boys defended well against Arsenal on Friday but offered little threat up front so a Chelsea win to nil appeals here at 13/8 with BoyleSports. I also like the 21/20 on offer at the same firm for the Blues to be winning at half-time and full-time.

Maresca's side should dominate possession so it could pay to back them at -3.5 in the corner handicap, which pays 23/20.

    I know he’s not a striker but surely Salah is the hottest player in the EPL right now and not Isak.

    Best in the world right now and he seems to have got better this season.
    It’s not just his goals, it’s his goal assists, the whole package, he is irreplaceable and that’s coming from a united fan.
    Liverpool need to keep him whatever the cost.
