The Premier League returns today, and the action kicks off with a must-win game for Manchester United at Southampton.
After clinging to his job by his fingernails at the end of last season, Erik ten Hag needed to get off to a decent start in the new campaign.
But after scraping a 1-0 win over Fulham at Old Trafford the United manager lost his next two games, against Brighton and Liverpool.
The 3-0 hammering by the Anfield giants set alarm bells ringing. It had all the hallmarks of last season's dreadful displays, so Ten Hag desperately needs a morale-boosting win today.
Southampton vs Manchester United top betting tips
The biggest consolation for Ten Hag is the fact Southampton have made an even worse start to the Premier League season, losing all three games so far.
Playing out from the back cost Russell Martin's side in their last outing against Brentford and the Saints boss has vowed not to ditch his principles.
That makes me think Manchester United could get some joy today and combining a win for Ten Hag's side with over 1.5 goals pays a decent evens.
Youngster Alejandro Garnacho still looks like United's best player in attack, and he's a tempting 11/10 at Bet365 to either score or assist. That looks good value if Ten Hag doesn't take the huff and bench him for liking a critical social media post.
AFC Bournemouth vs Chelsea top tips
The best game to watch today in the Premier League could come on the south coast as Chelsea visit AFC Bournemouth.
The Blues smashed six past Wolves on their last away day in the league while Bournemouth signed off for the international break on a high by coming from 2-0 down to beat Everton 3-2.
We should see goals at both ends here and combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals pays just 4/7 in a Betfred bet builder. Going for over 3.5 match strikes on its own offers more value at evens.
Nicolas Jackson should lead the line for Chelsea again and he's 7/4 at Betfred to have two or more shots on target.
Leeds United vs Burnley top betting tips
There's a cracker in the EFL Championship as the top two in the title betting collide at Elland Road as Burnley take on Leeds United.
Leeds have hit form after a slow start while Burnley have tailed off a little after flying out the traps. That's why Daniel Farke's side are Betfred's 7/10 favourites but this should be a close game between two evenly matched sides.
The half-time draw looks good value at 5/4 while over 10.5 corners also appeals at evens given both sides usually play on the front foot.
Celtic vs Heart of Midlothian top betting tips
Heart of Midlothian have made a terrible start to the season in the SPFL Premiership and only goal difference is keeping them from propping up the pile after collecting just one point from four games.
Fans are far from happy after the Jambos also lost a Europa League qualifier to a distinctly average Viktoria Plzen side and the last thing Steven Naismith needs right now is a trip to face champions Celtic.
Brendan Rodgers' men have been in fantastic form, and a 3-0 Old Firm derby win made it four wins from four in the league. They've been scoring for fun, but the first game back after an international break is often tricky, so I like a Hoops win with under 3.5 goals here at 11/8.
Hearts should get stuck in and defender Frankie Kent is a tempting 4/1 to go into the book, which looks a decent long-odds option.

Liverpool v Nottingham Forest
Under 2.5 goals at 11/5 (NAP)
Liverpool are more measured in their approach to their games under new boss Arne Slot, no longer will we see the reds going gung ho to win games as they did when Klopp was in charge. Liverpool look more solid defensively and Slot is not afraid to make big changes if he sees somethings not right. Arne Slot is more get the job done and conserve as much energy as possible as will surely be the case here today. Liverpool face Milan away on Tuesday night which is a massive game for Slot so you would think if Liverpool have a lead at h/t then he will start looking at seeing the game out and bringing the big names off with that match in mind. Also coming off an International break games can tend to take an age to get going as will be the case with most games today I’m sure.
Prediction 2-0
Best of luck
Thought you would have been on Overs today on this, I backed Liverpool Over 2.5 Team goals earlier @ 5/6. Understand your reasoning but I’m sure you would agree Liverpool got an array of attacking depth now when they make changes with 6/7 options for frontline and eager to impress to start the big matches. IMO Forest got one of worst defences and GK in Prem. 4 or 5-0 today for me.
Well that didn’t go to plan, WD on the Unders! ?
No shock it going unders just the result lol
Bolton v Huddersfield
9+ match corners and 20+ Bolton booking points and 10+ Huddesfield booking points 11/8 Sky
Six of Bolton’s seven games so far have seen nine or more match corners. Huddersfield have seen nine or more match corners in all but one of their league games this term.
Bolton have collected multiple cards in every league game so far. Huddersfield have also received at least one card in every league game since December! GL
F*ck me wtf is going on today
Celtic v Hearts
Celtic 3+ goals & Hearts 3+ cards

Also placing a small bet on the home win since Stuttgart look rusty and they’ll visit Real Madrid in 3 days.

Did anyone watch the Villa vs Everton game ? I placed a £10 bet on Bet 365 as a betbuilder to qualify for £10 of free bets. At one point, the cash out was £18 when game was 2-2 and one of the parts was Villa double chance, which was the only part showing that I needed to still come in, so when Villa scored a 3rd I thought it was home and hosed. Just checked my account and states ‘bet lost’.
I had Martinez down to make >0.5 of a save in the game, which seemingly he had done by 2-2, but this seems to have been rescinded by the final whistle. Any advice appreciated.
Martinez did make a save I’m afraid mate
*didnt
Thank you, close but no cigar. I will have to spend my £10 of ‘free’ bets wisely.
Chelsea win !!!!
