It's a busy day in the Premier League and the action gets underway with a cracker between Leeds United and Manchester United at Elland Road.
This is one of the fiercest rivalries in English football and Leeds fans will fancy their chances with Daniel Farke's side in excellent form.
They're up against a Manchester United side who could only draw at home to Wolves last time out and Ruben Amorim is without several first-team stars.
Leeds United vs Manchester United top betting tips
It's easy to look at the Premier League table and think Manchester United are playing well, with Amorim's side in the thick of the fight for a top-four finish.
But performances have been poor of late and their only win in the last four outings was a 1-0 success over Newcastle in a game the Magpies dominated.
Bryan Mbeumo, Amad Diallo and Noussair Mazraoui are still away at the Africa Cup of Nations while skipper Bruno Fernandes is out injured.
So it's hard to hold out much hope for them away to a Leeds side who are unbeaten in their last six.
Farke's side have only lost twice at home all season and with a passionate crowd behind them I fancy Leeds to win at 13/8 with 888Sport.

This could be a fiery one so the card and foul markets are worth a look. Casemiro will be at the heart of the midfield battle and he's 9/5 at William Hill to go into the book.

Manchester City vs Chelsea
It has been a tumultous few days at Chelsea with boss Enzo Maresca packing his bags and the Blues now have a daunting game on the road at title-chasing Manchester City.
Something didn't seem right in the final few weeks of what was ultimately a pretty successful reign for Maersca and Chelsea have taken just two points from their last three games.
City also dropped points on the road in Sunderland on New Year's Day, with a 0-0 draw seeing them lose ground on Arsenal in the title race.
Pep Guardiola will be desperate to bounce back tonight and his side are 4/6 favourites with Betfred. Given Chelsea are in such turmoil, I'm going to combine a City win with an Erling Haaland goal, which pays 21/20 in a Bet365 bet builder.
The Blues still have enough talent in their ranks to cause City a few problems and I like the 13/12 on offer at Unibet for forward Joao Pedro to have a shot on target.

Fulham vs Liverpool
It looked like Liverpool had turned a corner in their turbulent Premier League title defence but a dreary 0-0 draw with Leeds on New Year's Day was a major step backwards.
It's still eight games without defeat for Arne Slot's men but the Anfield boss will be concerned with how few chances they created in midweek.
Next up is a trip to Fulham today and the Cottagers have their tails up after a four-game unbeaten run in the league.
Marco Silva's men have won three of those games so could be worth a punt today in the double chance at a best 5/6 with Betway.
Slot will probably freshen things up after such a poor show in midweek and Cody Gakpo could earn a start. The Dutchman loves a crack at goal and is 7/2 at Betway for over 1.5 efforts on target.

Adelaide v CCM
Both teams have in patchy form lately but 3 out 5 of Adelaide’s have been away. Looking beyond that, they actually have excellent home form and lost only 1 in 5, winning the other 4.
CCM have been in pretty poor form on the road, losing 3 out of 4. Their only win was against Perth who have the worst home form in the league.
Adelaide win 8/11
