Manchester United and Swansea to record important home wins, plus more in our latest enhanced accumulator...
It has, admittedly, been a tough few weeks for the five-fold.
There’s been a mixture of desperate bad luck and some unexpected results, but I’m confident we can get back on track this weekend.
Manchester United to beat Bournemouth – {ODDS:137018032:1/4}
Everything is going right for Manchester United at the moment.
They are unbeaten in 16 Premier League games and have won 16 out of 20 in all competitions, most recently against Southampton in the EFL Cup final.
And while they won’t add the league title to their silverware this season, Jose Mourinho’s should take another step towards a top-four spot this weekend.
Bournemouth cannot be expected to stop them given their woeful form.
The Cherries are winless in eight in all competitions and have lost their last four on the bounce.
They have also failed to pick up any points in their three away games against the top six this season.
A routine win for the Red Devils is surely on the way.
Swansea to beat Burnley – {ODDS:137022002:Evens}
Swansea’s improvement under Paul Clement has been impressive.
Having won four of their last eight, including back-to-back victories at the Liberty Stadium, the Swans have climbed from the foot of the table to 16th – two points above the bottom three.
They shouldn’t be troubled by Burnley.
While the Clarets have enjoyed an impressive return to the Premier League, their away form is not good.
They are yet to win away from Turf Moor this season and, after their draw with Hull last weekend, have picked up just two points on the road.
Brighton to beat Nottingham Forest – {ODDS:140427287:10/11}
Despite their narrow defeat against Newcastle in midweek, Brighton should be backed to get back to winning ways.
That loss was only the Seagulls’ third in 28 league games, while they had won back-to-back matches in their previous two.
Saturday should be business as usual for Chris Hughton’s side.
Nottingham Forest have picked up just one point in four – against fellow strugglers Wigan – and, in 18th-place, are teetering perilously above the relegation zone.
Expect no surprises at the City Ground.
Aston Villa to beat Rotherham – {ODDS:140428324:3/4}
Having beaten Derby and Bristol City in their last two outings, Villa have put some much-needed distance between themselves and the Championship drop zone.
Their profitable patch should continue against a hopeless Rotherham side.
The Millers have picked up just one point in eight games and have the Football League’s most porous defence, which has conceded 77 goals.
Considering the visitors have kept two consecutive clean sheets, they should be trusted to record another win.
Sheffield United to beat Rochdale – {ODDS:140780022:4/5}
Sheffield United are running away with the League One title and should put paid to Rochdale’s faint play-off hopes here.
They are unbeaten in five and have won four out of six on the road – only losing to home-specialists Walsall.
Rochdale’s form, meanwhile, has been sketchy.
They are winless in eight and, despite most of their success coming at home this season, have not won in four at Spotland – failing to score in three.
Against the free-scoring Blades – who have netted 61, the league’s highest total – they will be rolled over.
