Crisis club Manchester United head to Stamford Bridge today and the bookies are banking on Chelsea piling more pressure on Michael Carrick.
The Old Trafford boss has somehow managed to survive back-to-back defeats by a three-goal margin during an eight-game run without a win.
I'm amazed he's still in charge and with Manchester United in such disarray it's not a big surprise to see Chelsea as odds-on favourites.
Chelsea vs Manchester United top betting tips
The Blues aren't in great form themselves, with a painful loss at home to Spurs last weekend followed by a shoot-out defeat to Liverpool in the EFL Cup.
Star striker Joao Pedro is also set to miss out with injury again but Chelsea still look in far better shape than this dispirited United squad.
I thought the home win would be shorter than 5/6 today and adding on over 1.5 goals boosts the odds to evens at Bet365.
Manchester United still look weak in the full-back positions and Blues winger Pedro Neto could get a bit of joy. The Portuguese wide boy is 6/5 at Bet365 to score or assist.
Manchester City vs Brighton and Hove Albion
It's take two for these sides as Brighton head to the Etihad for the second time in a week to take on Premier League leaders Manchester City.
The Seagulls were edged out on penalties after a 2-2 draw in the EFL Cup on Wednesday night and were probably the better team.
Both managers rested some regulars but the standard of player returning for City today is better and they are worthy 3/5 favourites.
We should see goals at both ends once more though and over 1.5 first-half strikes looks decent value at evens with Bet365.
Erling Haaland should be back to lead the line for Enzo Maresca and he's 15/4 to score with a header for the fifth time this season.
Rangers vs Aberdeen
It's semi-final weekend in the Scottish League Cup and Derek McInnes will be looking to take a big step towards his first trophy as Rangers boss when they take on Aberdeen at Hampden.
McInnes led the Dons to League Cup glory in season 2013/14 and that remains his last major trophy, although he came within a whisker of a shock title triumph at Hearts last season.
Rangers were poor against his old club in midweek, needing a late leveller to escape from Tynecastle with a 2-2 draw, but should still be too strong for the Dons.
Aberdeen have won just two of their last 10 games inside 90 minutes and that run started with a 1-0 home loss to Rangers.
I can see a repeat at Hampden and combining a Rangers win with under 3.5 goals pays 13/10 at Bet365.
Nine yellow cards were flashed in the last meeting, with six of them going to the Dons, and backing Aberdeen at -1 in the card handicap pays 7/5.
