class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>In excellent form and a tough nut to crack at the Liberty Stadium, Al Hain-Cole expects the Swans to run Guardiola's men close in their FA Cup clash

Swansea City will be aiming to cause an FA Cup giant-killing when they welcome Manchester City to the Liberty Stadium for Wednesday’s Fifth Round clash.

The Swans are flying high in the Championship and come into this clash on the back of eight wins and no defeats in their last 10 fixtures.

Swansea City vs Manchester City Latest Odds

Having gone 2-0 up before losing 3-2 against this opposition in a 2019 FA Cup quarter-final clash, they are available at 12/1 (13.00) with bet365 to exact revenge with a shock win.

Pep Guardiola’s men thrashed Liverpool 4-1 to extend their winning streak to a record-equalling 14 in a row at the weekend and are clear 2/9 (1.22) favourites to make history by making it 15 here.

None of the last six encounters between this pair have resulted in draws, but you can get odds of 15/2 (8.50) on them taking this one into extra-time with a deadlocked 90 minutes.

Swansea City vs Manchester City Team News

New signing Paul Arriola could be in line for a Swansea debut after joining on loan from DC United on deadline day, although Korey Smith is doubtful and Liam Cullen and Steven Benda both ruled out.

Nathan Ake, Kevin De Bruyne and Sergio Aguero are not expected to feature, with Kyle Walker set to face a fitness test.

Swansea City vs Manchester City Preview

While they come into this game on a high after equalling the record winning streak for a top-flight team with a victory over the champions, the Citizens should be careful not to take their opponents too lightly.

Unbeaten in 10 matches, Steve Cooper’s team will certainly back themselves to make life difficult for their guests at a stadium where they have lost just once in 17 fixtures.

Indeed, having only conceded 18 goals in 31 matches in all competitions this season, and not let in more than two since last season’s 3-1 play-off semi-final defeat at Brentford.

Swansea City vs Manchester City Tips and Predictions

All in all, odds of 11/10 (2.10) look well worth back on Swansea at least ensuring no more than three goals are scored on their way to a narrow defeat against rampant Manchester City.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Recent encounters between the Toffees and Mourinho's men have been tight and tense affairs, and Al Hain-Cole expects few goals at Goodison Park

Everton and Tottenham fight it out for a place in the FA Cup quarter-finals when they meet at Goodison Park on Wednesday.

Carlo Ancelotti’s team are a point ahead of their opponents in the Premier League and ran out 1-0 winners in North London in the most recent meeting back in September.

Everton vs Tottenham Latest Odds

However, they have won just one of their last six matches on home turf and are priced at 17/10 (2.70) with bet365 to come out on top once again.

Unbeaten in their last six visits to this ground, Spurs are also available at those same 17/10 (2.70) to get the better of what looks likely to be a tight match.

With so little to choose between the sides, odds of 11/5 (3.20) may prove tempting on them taking this game into extra-time after a draw in 90 minutes.

Everton vs Tottenham Team News

James Rodriguez is a doubt after coming off injured in Saturday’s 3-3 draw against Manchester United, while Allan and Jordan Pickford will need to be assessed and Jean-Philippe Gbamin remains sidelined.

Dele Alli is doubtful and Giovani Lo Celso and Sergio Reguilon both ruled out, although Harry Kane is back after making his return ahead of schedule in the 2-0 victory over West Brom.

Everton vs Tottenham Preview

Kane’s return couldn’t have come soon enough for Jose Mourinho’s men, who had looked toothless in successive 1-0 defeats against Chelsea and Brighton prior to Saturday.

However, another low-scoring game looks likely considering the last two encounters between this duo have both finished 1-0 – with each claiming one victory apiece.

Indeed, the Toffees have only scored four times in their last six home games against Premier League opposition, while the visitors have struck just eight times in eight away matches against top-flight rivals.

Everton vs Tottenham Tips and Predictions

With neither team likely to open themselves up too much and both struggling for cutting edge, odds of 10/11 (1.91) are surely worth backing on no more than one finding the net within 90 minutes.

That bet would have paid out in Tottenham’s last three consecutive matches, as well as their last two in a row versus Everton.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The last two meetings between these sides have seen very few goals and our tipster fancies another low-scoring clash in the Copa Del Rey on Wednesday

Barcelona travel to the Estadio Sanchez Pizjuan on Wednesday evening to face Sevilla in the first leg of their Copa Del Rey semi-final.

Ronald Koeman’s side are on a positive run, with defeat in the Spanish Super Cup final against Athletic Club their only loss in their last 11 matches.

Sevilla, meanwhile, are also enjoying some excellent form with nine wins from their last 10 clashes and Julen Lopetegui’s men sit just a point below the Catalans in La Liga

Sevilla vs Barcelona Latest Odds

The two most recent meetings between these sides have ended in draws, with Barca’s visit to Sevilla in July ending 0-0 and their meeting at Camp Nou in October producing a 1-1 stalemate.

Another tie can be backed at 5/2 (3.50) with bet365, while the hosts are offered at 9/4 (3.25) and Barca at 23/20 (2.15).

Sevilla vs Barcelona Team News

Lionel Messi came off the bench to lead Barca to a comeback victory at the weekend and should start here along with Frenkie De Jong, Pedri and Sergino Dest, although Gerard Pique, Ansu Fati and Philippe Coutinho remain sidelined with Ronald Araujo a doubt.

Sevilla are without Lucas Ocampos who picked up a serious injury against Getafe, while Marcos Acuna is also out and Jesus Navas unlikely to play any part.

Sevilla vs Barcelona Preview

The last two matches between these sides have been tight affairs and Wednesday night’s game could be another even counter particularly with it being a first leg.

Avoiding defeat will be the priority for both teams to give themselves the best chance of making it through to the final in the second leg at Camp Nou in two weeks.

Sevilla remain an extremely tough side to break down with the Andalusians keeping five consecutive clean sheets in all competitions, while in La Liga they boast the second-best home defensive record with only seven goals conceded in 10 games.

Barca, for their part, have the second-best away defensive record in the league, and with both two aiming to keep things tight in this first leg, opposing a high-scoring game is tempting at the Estadio Sanchez Pizjuan. 

Sevilla vs Barcelona Tips and Predictions

Under 2.5 goals is priced at 21/20 (2.05) with bet365 and should offer value in what is likely to be another hard-fought encounter.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>This FA Cup fifth-round fixture pits the Foxes against the Seagulls and our tipster is expecting a tense clash at the King Power Stadium on Wednesday

Leicester City are looking to reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the third time in four seasons when they welcome Brighton to the King Power Stadium on Wednesday.

The Foxes have eased to this stage of the competition with comfortable wins over Championship sides Stoke and Brentford, but will no doubt face a tricky test against a Seagulls side unbeaten in six matches.

Leicester City vs Brighton Latest Odds

Brendan Rodgers’ men recorded a comfortable 3-0 win when these sides met on this ground in the Premier League earlier this season and are 5/6 (1.83) favourites with bet365 to triumph once again.

Brighton have not beaten Leicester since 2014 when the sides were both in the Championship but can be backed at 10/3 (4.33) to reach the quarter-finals of the FA Cup for the third season out of their last four.

With no replays in this year’s tournament, a draw would lead to extra time and potentially penalties and that is available to back at 13/5 (3.60).

Leicester City vs Brighton Team News

Jamie Vardy returned after three weeks out to come off the bench against Wolves on Sunday and could start here, whilst Wilfred Ndidi faces a late fitness test but Dennis Praet, Timothy Castagne, Wesley Fofana and Wes Morgan are all injured.

Davy Propper and Alireza Jahanbakhsh are both in contention, however, Florin Andone, Tariq Lamptey, Solly March, Adam Webster and Jason Steele are all out.

Leicester City vs Brighton Preview

Brighton’s recent form has been nothing short of remarkable, with their current run of six games without defeat in all competitions their longest since a sequence of seven back in early 2018.

Stunning wins over Tottenham and Liverpool in recent fixtures will have confidence coursing through Graham Potter’s men, especially considering both victories came without conceding – meaning the Seagulls have let in only four goals in their last eight.

Although Leicester have not been struggling for goals per se, their last four top-flight games have yielded just four strikes and they managed only three shots on target in their most recent outing against Wolves.

Leicester City vs Brighton Tips and Predictions

Brighton’s strong defence is likely to lead to a tight FA Cup fixture and bet365’s offer of 3/4 (1.75) on under 2.5 goals looks a strong selection here, having paid out in seven of the Seagulls’ last eight games and in five of Leicester’s previous seven.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the Tykes struggling for cutting edge in attack, Al Hain-Cole is backing Tuchel's men to avoid another FA Cup upset at Oakwell on Thursday

Barnsley will be hoping history repeats itself when the Championship side welcome Chelsea to Oakwell in Thursday’s FA Cup Fifth Round tie.

The Tykes pulled off a memorable cup upset against the then-holders when they last met in this competition back in 2008, running out 1-0 winners on home turf in the quarter-finals.

Barnsley vs Chelsea Latest Odds

However, having been thrashed 6-0 at Stamford Bridge in September’s Carabao Cup encounter, they are 9/1 (10.00) outsiders with bet365 to pull off another shock win here.

Thomas Tuchel’s men have won three and lost none of their four matches since he took command last month, and are clear 3/10 (1.30) favourites to ease into the next round by coming out on top here.

None of the guests’ last 14 fixtures in this competition have resulted in draws, but you can get odds of 9/2 (5.50) on them being forced into extra-time after a deadlocked 90 minutes in this one.

Barnsley vs Chelsea Team News

New signing Daryl Dike is in line for his Barnsley debut after joining from Orlando City on loan, although Ben Williams, Liam Kitching and Aapo Halme are all sidelined due to injury.

Timo Werner will be assessed due to the dead leg he suffered in the 2-1 win over Sheffield United, while Thiago Silva is injured and Christian Pulisic back in contention after missing the trip to Bramall Lane for personal reasons.

Barnsley vs Chelsea Preview

Valerien Ismael will be hoping young USA striker Dike can make an immediate impact considering his side’s recent struggles for cutting edge, having failed to find the net in four out of the last five Championship games.

Their tally of just 12 shots on target in that time is also indicative of Barnsley struggling in front of goal, with no side in the second-tier having fewer in that period.

While the Tykes have been on target in two FA Cup ties during that span, they may struggle to find more joy in this competition against a Blues side that has conceded just once in four matches under their new manager.

Barnsley vs Chelsea Tips and Predictions

Indeed, Chelsea have actually let in just four goals in their last eight matches in total and look well worth the 6/5 (2.20) odds to extend their winning streak to four in a row while keeping a fourth clean sheet in five considering Barnsley’s lack of firepower of late.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Champions League winners meet their North American counterparts in the Club World Cup final on Thursday and our tipster is expecting a close game

Bayern Munich are looking to become world champions for the fourth time in their history when they take on Mexican outfit Tigres in the Club World Cup final at Education City Stadium in Qatar on Thursday.

Hansi Flick’s men qualified for the tournament after lifting the Champions League back in August and swept aside Al Ahly of Egypt in the semi-final thanks to Robert Lewandowski’s brace.

Bayern Munich vs Tigres Latest Odds

The last seven Club World Cup finals have all been won by European sides and bet365 make Bayern just 2/9 (1.22) to continue that trend in Al Rayyan on Thursday.

Tigres are the first North American team to ever reach the final, having done so by beating Ulsan Hyundai and Palmeiras so far in the tournament, but are out at 12/1 (13.0) to win inside 90 minutes.

Only four of the 16 finals in this competition have ever been level after 90 minutes and bet365 go 5/1 (6.0) that this clash goes into extra time and potentially penalties.

Bayern Munich vs Tigres Team News

Flick played a strong team against Al Ahly and should put out a similar line-up here, although the likes of Leroy Sane and Niklas Sule will be pushing to start after coming off the bench in the semi-final. Jerome Boateng, meanwhile, has left the squad for personal reasons.

Tigres manager Ricardo Ferretti may go for a defensive XI against a dangerous Bayern team, having played a 4-4-1-1 in the win over Palmeiras.

Bayern Munich vs Tigres Preview

Bayern were shown little resistance in their semi-final win over Al Ahly, recording almost 70 per cent possession and amassing an impressive 24 shots on their way to a very comfortable 2-0 victory.

Another professional performance is set to be on the agenda for Flick, who will be aware of the confidence in Tigres’ camp after their upset of Palmeiras in the semis to create history – with Ferretti’s men holding their Brazilian opponents to just a single shot on target in the process.

The Liga MX side will likely aim for another robust defensive display here and having kept six clean sheets in their last 10 games in all competitions, should be able to make life difficult for the European champions .

Bayern Munich vs Tigres Tips and Predictions

It is difficult to see anything other than the favourites winning but Tigres have enough to keep it tight and the price of 21/20 (2.05) on Bayern winning in a match that features under 3.5 match goals looks a strong pick for the Club World Cup final.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Pep Guardiola's men have been in strong scoring form recently and boast a number of attacking threats for this weekend's clash against Spurs

Tottenham visit the Etihad Stadium to face Manchester City this Saturday in a game which earlier on this season looked like it could potentially go a long way to deciding the Premier League title.

Spurs began the campaign brilliantly and their 2-0 win over City in November saw them go top of the Premier League, but things could scarcely have gone different for both sides since then.

Indeed, that was the last defeat that Pep Guardiola’s team have suffered and while the Citizens have won 15 consecutive games in all competitions, Spurs have claimed just three victories in their last 11 Premier League clashes – slumping to eighth in the table. 

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Latest Goalscorer Odds

City may sit five points clear at the top with a game in hand over their nearest challengers, yet the side from Manchester do not boast any players in the top-nine goalscorers in the Premier League.

Ilkay Gundogan is the team’s most prolific player with nine league strikes and bet365 offer him at 21/20 (2.05) to score any time, or at 4/1 (5.00) to score first.

The shortest priced City player to score is Gabriel Jesus at 10/11 (1.91) while Ferran Torres and Raheem Sterling are available at 6/5 (2.20).

Spurs, for their part, boast two of the top scorers in the division in Harry Kane and Son Heung-min, who have both netted 13 times, with the England captain offered at 15/8 (2.88) and the Korean forward at 11/4 (3.75).

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Goalscorer Tips and Predictions

Gundogan is not only the team’s top scorer, but also the player who has broken the deadlock the most times for City in the Premier League this season.

The former Borussia Dortmund man has opened the scoring five times this term and the price of 4/1 (5.00) for him to do so once more could appeal, whilst another option is to back him to score City’s first goal at 9/4 (3.25).

For Spurs, it is hard to look past the attacking duo of Kane and Son, who account for 72 per cent of the side’s league goals this season.

Tanguy Ndombele in the third top scorer with three goals, all three of which have come on the road, and the Frenchman is offered at 17/2 (9.50) to find the back of the net.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The visitors have a strong scoring record against the biggest teams in La Liga this season and our tipster is backing them to net at Camp Nou

Barcelona welcome Alaves to Camp Nou on Saturday evening in La Liga with Ronald Koeman likely to have one eye on Tuesday’s Champions League last-16 clash against Paris Saint-Germain.

The manager has shown he is not afraid to rest players for upcoming matches, leaving Lionel Messi on the bench for last weekend’s La Liga clash against Real Betis to prioritise the Copa Del Rey semi-final against Sevilla. 

Barcelona vs Alaves Latest Odds

Barca have dropped points in four of their 10 home league matches this season, losing to Real Madrid and drawing with Eibar, Valencia and Sevilla.

Click Here: northampton saints rugby jerseys

The hosts are offered at 2/7 (1.28) to claim a victory with bet365 while Alaves are the longest-priced team in La Liga this weekend, available at 8/1 (9.00) with the draw at 5/1 (6.00).

Barcelona vs Alaves Team News

Barca have a host of injury issues to contend with, as long-term absentees Gerard Pique, Ansu Fati, Philippe Coutinho and Sergi Roberto remain out. Centre-back Ronald Araujo is also missing and Miralem Pjanic is a doubt.

Defender Rodrigo Ely was ruled out with a season-ending injury back in December, but otherwise Alaves have no injury concerns.

Barcelona vs Alaves Preview

The Catalans’ defensive issues will be a concern for Koeman and the loss of Araujo is a major blow, as the Uruguayan has been one of Barca’s best performers this season.

Indeed, the Blaugrana have conceded in seven of their last nine matches in all competitions and there should certainly be some interest in opposing them to keep a clean sheet this weekend.

Whilst Alaves are not one of the division’s most-prolific sides, they boast an extremely dangerous attacking duo in Joselu and Lucas Perez and have scored in both of their matches against Real Madrid, as well as netting in their recent clashes with Atletico Madrid and Sevilla.

The Basques also held Barca to a 1-1 draw at the Estadio Mendizorroza earlier this season and backing them to get on the score sheet once again should appeal.

Barcelona vs Alaves Tips and Predictions

Both teams to score is priced at 4/5 (1.80) and looks like an excellent option, while combining this with a Barca victory sees the price rise to 13/8 (2.63).

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Premier League leaders have been in unstoppable form and we are backing them to continue their superb winning run against Spurs this weekend

Manchester City welcome Tottenham to the Etihad Stadium on Saturday in the Premier League with Pep Guardiola’s men aiming for their 16th consecutive victory in all competitions.

Both sides were in action in midweek in the FA Cup with City recording a comfortable 3-1 success at Swansea, while Spurs were beaten 5-4 at Everton is a dramatic game that went to extra time.

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Latest Odds

Jose Mourinho’s side were the last team to beat City in any competition, winning 2-0 back on November 21, yet the north Londoners are badly out of form with just three wins from their last 11 Premier League games.

The visitors are offered at 8/1 (9.00) to claim three points with bet365, while City can be backed at 1/3 (1.33) and the draw at 19/4 (5.75).

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Team News

The Premier League leaders are still without Kevin De Bruyne, Sergio Aguero and Nathan Ake, while Ruben Dias, Fernandinho and Rodri Hernandez will all be assessed to see whether they can return.

Serge Aurier faces a late fitness test to see if there is any chance of him making the game, but Sergio Reguilon and Giovani Lo Celso remain out.

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview

Mourinho will surely be looking for a reaction from his side following their desperately disappointing FA Cup exit in midweek, although a trip to Manchester to face a rampant City side is the toughest game possible for Spurs.

The north Londoners showed some spirit in midweek in twice coming from behind to force extra time, but generally there has been a timidity and lethargy about Spurs in recent weeks which has led to some insipid performances.

Tottenham’s early season defensive solidity has also dissipated, with the side conceding in nine of their last 11 league clashes, and could be in for another difficult afternoon this weekend against a City side surging with confidence.

Manchester City vs Tottenham Hotspur Tips and Predictions

Man City to win and score over 2.5 goals is offered at 13/10 (2.30) with bet365 and looks like a strong option, while over 3.5 goals in the game at 6/4 (2.50) could also appeal.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With both sides missing some key defensive players, Al Hain-Cole expects another high-scoring encounter between the Foxes and Klopp's men on Saturday

Liverpool will be desperate to get their Premier League season back on track when they travel to the King Power Stadium to take on Leicester on Saturday.

The Reds’ title bid is all but over after last weekend’s 4-1 home defeat against Manchester Ctiy, leaving them to focus on securing a place in the top four.

Leicester vs Liverpool Latest Odds

Having won six and lost none of their last seven encounters against this opposition, they are 11/10 (2.10) favourites with bet365 to leapfrog them into third with a welcome victory here.

However, Brendan Rodgers’ men have lost just one of their last 12 matches in all competitions and are available at 5/2 (3.50) to move six points clear of his former club by coming out on top.

Just one of the last 12 meetings between this pair has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 5/2 (3.50) on them cancelling each other out in this one.

Leicester vs Liverpool Team News

Ozan Kabak and Ben Davies are both in contention to make their debuts, although Diogo Jota and Naby Keita remain doubtful despite returning to training and Fabinho, Joe Gomez, Joel Matip, and Virgil Van Dijk are definitely ruled out.

James Justin tore his ACL in Wedensday’s FA Cup win over Brighton and is out for the season, joining Wesley Fofana, Wes Morgan, Timothy Castagne and Dennis Praet on the injury list..

Leicester vs Liverpool Preview

Having struggled for goals recently, Jurgen Klopp’s team will be looking forward to taking on a Foxes side they have put nine past in just the last three encounters – particularly because of Leicester’s defensive absentees.

Indeed, Rodgers’ men have only kept two clean sheets against top-half opposition this season, conceding 18 times in those 11 fixtures.

On the other hand, the champions’ well-publicised injury crisis in defence should offer plenty of opportunities for Jamie Vardy and team mates, who have not failed to score in any of their last 13 fixtures.

Leicester vs Liverpool Tips and Predictions

Considering 13 of Liverpool’s last 15 league goals have come on the road, odds of 20/21 (1.95) seem like solid value on them both scoring and conceding in their ninth Premier League meeting with Leicester in 10 to feature three goals or more.
