The pressure has cranked up on Ange Postecoglou after another derby defeat and his Tottenham Hotspur side badly need a victory when they take on Everton at Goodison Park today.
That 2-1 loss to Arsenal in midweek was the 11th defeat of the Premier League season for Spurs and they are now just eight points above the drop zone.
The prospect of EFL Cup or Europa League glory seems to be keeping Postecoglou in a job but their slump won't be tolerated for much longer if they drop further towards danger.
Everton's need for points is even greater as they sit only one point above the trap door and David Moyes has answered their SOS. He lost his first game back at the helm to Aston Villa so will be desperate to get off the mark today.
Everton vs Tottenham Hotspur top betting tips
This game pits one of the game's great romantics against an arch pragmatist so it's tricky to predict if we will see a lot of goals. Everton have drawn a blank in six of their last seven league matches but should get chances on the break as Postecoglou's side pile players forward.
That makes me think we will see a few goals and combining BTTS with no draw pays 13/10 at BoyleSports. Over 1.5 first-half strikes also appeals at 7/5.
Going for some stats bets is probably a safer option and I like the 11/10 on offer for Tottenham's Dejan Kulusevski to have an effort on target. The Swede has scored eight times this term and had an effort saved in the midweek derby defeat.
Everton will look to Iliman Ndiaye for a creative spark and he's 5/1 to provide an assist, which looks a decent long-odds option.
Manchester United vs Brighton and Hove Albion top betting tips
Manchester United got back to winning ways on Thursday night and that 3-1 victory over Southampton made it three games without defeat.
But the scoreline masked another poor performance from Ruben Amorim's side and they needed a late hat-trick from Amad Diallo to see off a team rooted to the foot of the Premier League table.
A stiffer test of their arrival comes this afternoon when bogey team Brighton pitch up looking for a third successive win at Old Trafford.
With the Seagulls having lost just one of their last six against United in the league, they could be worth a punt at 23/10 with BoyleSports for a win today.
If you want to play it a little safer, backing Brighton to win either half pays 11/10 with the same firm.
Fabian Hurzeler isn't the kind of manager who sits back so we should see goals at both ends. Combining BTTS with over 2.5 goals pays 20/23.
Ipswich Town vs Manchester City top betting tips
Ipswich Town's recent revival ground to a halt in midweek as they lost 2-0 at home to Brighton, with the Seagulls dominating the second half.
That has left the Tractor Boys stuck in the drop zone and they now have a daunting double header against champions Manchester City and league leaders Liverpool.
City missed out on a fourth successive win when they threw away a 2-0 lead late on against Brentford in midweek. But they have been playing better after their horror mid-season slump and BoyleSports make them 1/3 hot favourites.
Pep Guardiola's defence still looks a little vulnerable so going for a City win with BTTS might be the shout at 8/5. Backing the champions to be winning at half-time and full-time also appeals at evens.
Erling Haaland will be out to celebrate his obscene new contract with a goal but is just 4/7 at BoyleSports for a goal. I'm more drawn to Savinho at 9/4 in the same market as the Brazilian winger was superb in midweek. He's also 5/2 at Bet365 for an assist.
Scottish Cup fourth round top betting tips
There's a David v Goliath tie in the Scottish Cup this afternoon as Highland League side Fraserburgh head to Ibrox to take on Rangers. The Highland League side are 50/1 outsiders and it's hard finding value with Philippe Clement's side 1/250 hot favourites.
The Ibrox boss should make a lot of changes and midfielder Connor Barron might be worth a punt for anytime scorer at 3/1 with Bet365. Cyriel Dessers should get a run-out up front and he's 11/4 to break the deadlock.
Falkirk host Raith Rovers in the other tie and I fancy a Bairns win with over 2.5 goals, which pays 13/10 at BoyleSports.
