class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Both the Red Devils and Spurs have been amongst the goals this season and our tipster is backing yet more action when they meet at Old Trafford

Manchester United are looking for their first home win of the season when they welcome Tottenham to Old Trafford on Sunday.

It has not been the most convincing of starts by the Red Devils after they lost at home to Crystal Palace and were lucky to escape Brighton with three points last week, and this fixture has the makings for another tough test.

Although Spurs have picked up only four points from three games, one of those was a 5-2 drubbing at Southampton and they were incredibly unfortunate to only draw with Newcastle last weekend after a contentious penalty saved the Magpies.

Manchester United vs Tottenham Latest Odds

Man United won 10 of their 19 league games at Old Trafford last season and bet365 make them 17/20 (1.85) to pick up their first home victory of the campaign on Sunday.

Spurs mustered just four wins away from home last season and they are priced at 3/1 (4.0) to hand United a second straight home league defeat, whilst the draw is available at 14/5 (3.80).

Manchester United vs Tottenham Team News

Axel Tuanzebe and Phil Jones are long-term absentees for United, but otherwise Ole Gunnar Solskjaer has a full team to choose from.

Jose Mourinho will be without Gareth Bale for his return to Old Trafford, but Son Heung-min is fit and Sergio Reguilon makes his Premier League debut.

Manchester United XI: De Gea; Wan-Bissaka, Bailly, Maguire, Shaw; Matic, Pogba; Greenwood, Fernandes, Rashford; Martial

Tottenham XI: Lloris; Aurier, Dier, Sanchez, Reguilon; Hojbjerg, Sissoko, Ndombele; Lamela, Son, Kane

Manchester United vs Tottenham Preview

With so much of the season left to play it would certainly not be a disaster for either team to lose this game, but given the ordinary fashion in which both have sides have started, a win would of course be very welcome.

United’s home record against top-six sides last season was exceptional with four wins and a draw, whilst the only point Spurs picked up against the top six was at Manchester City.

However, the positive for Mourinho is that his side did score in all five of those games and are in good stead to do so in this match after recording 12 shots on target against Newcastle last week and netting five times against Southampton the week prior.

Manchester United vs Tottenham Tips and Predictions

With Spurs having scored six goals in their last two games and United with four in their most recent pair, bet365’s 4/5 (1.80) on over 2.5 goals looks the best bet for this Premier League clash on Sunday.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>In strong form over the last few matches, Al Hain-Cole is backing Smith's men to make life difficult for the Reds in Sunday's clash at Villa Park

At least one 100 per cent record will come to an end when Aston Villa welcome Liverpool to Villa Park for Sunday’s Premier League clash.

Both sides have enjoyed winning starts to the season, although Dean Smith’s men have played just two matches to their opponents’ three.

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Latest Odds

Having also gone unbeaten in their final four league matches of last season, Villa are available at 9/1 (10.00) with bet365 to extend their run by pulling off a big shock win here.

The Reds were knocked out of the Carabao Cup on penalties against Arsenal in midweek but are clear 3/10 (1.30) favourites to bounce back by coming out on top in this one.

Just one of the last 12 meetings between this pair has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 9/2 (5.50) on them playing out a stalemate on this occasion.

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Team News

Tom Heaton, Bjorn Engels and Wesley remain long-term absentees for the hosts, although new loan signing Ross Barkley makes his debut.

Jordan Henderson is out following an assessment, while Joel Matip, Kostas Tsimikas, and Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain are injured and Thiago is in quarantine due to COVID-19.

Aston Villa XI: Martinez; Cash, Konsa, Mings, Targett; McGinn, Douglas Luiz, Barkley; Trezeguet, Watkins, Grealish

Liverpool XI: Adrian; Alexander-Arnold, Gomez, Van Dijk, Robertson; Fabinho, Wijnaldum, Keita; Jota, Salah, Firmino

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Preview

After saving themselves from relegation with a stirring end to last season, the Villans seem determined to consolidate their place in the top-flight this campaign.

Having run the champions pretty close in both encounters last season – losing out 2-1 at home to two injury time goals before going down 2-0 at Anfield – they will feel confident of giving a strong account of themselves once again.

In fact, Villa have only lost two of their last 12 Premier League matches by more than a single goal, while Jurgen Klopp’s team has won just three of eight away league matches by a two-goal margin.

Aston Villa vs Liverpool Tips and Predictions

All things considered, odds of 5/6 (1.83) seem generous on Liverpool failing to win by more than a single goal margin at Villa Park.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The two Iberian rivals meet for a friendly at Jose Alvalade Stadium and we are backing the hosts to continue their superb recent scoring record

Spain make the short trip to the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon on Wednesday evening to face neighbours Portugal in a friendly.

Luis Enrique’s men enjoyed a 4-0 win over Ukraine and a 1-1 drew in Germany in the UEFA Nations League last month, while Portugal recorded victories over Sweden and Croatia.

The win against the Croatians was particularly impressive and it extended Fernando Santos’ side’s unbeaten home record in competitive fixtures to six years.

Portugal vs Spain Latest Odds

The last two meetings between these two sides have been at major tournaments, with a 3-3 group stage draw at the World Cup in 2018 being preceded by a 0-0 semi-final encounter during Euro 2012.

bet365 cannot split the sides, with both offered at 8/5 (2.60) and the draw at 12/5 (3.40).

Portugal vs Spain Team News

The hosts have no major injury concerns and the likes of Cristiano Ronaldo, Joao Felix, Bernardo Silva and Bruno Fernandes are all included, whilst there are recalls for Rafa Silva, Daniel Podence, Ruben Semedo and William Carvalho.

Spain have left out Thiago Alcantara, who is quarantining after a positive Coronavirus test, and Dani Carvajal has dropped out of the squad with a knee injury.

Portugal vs Spain Preview

Much excitement has been generated in Portugal after their two victories last month and against their neighbours, Cristiano Ronaldo and Co. will be keen to show that they are real contenders to defend their European crown next year.

The Euro 2016 winners have serious strength in depth up front and the six goals they netted last month were scored by five different players, so there could be some interest in backing Portugal to get among the goals once more, especially given that Spain are not as solid as they once were.

Indeed, there are serious question marks over David de Gea and Kepa Arrizabalaga while an heir to Gerard Pique in the heart of defence is still to be found, meaning Sergio Ramos remains without a consistent partner.

La Roja have regularly struggled for solidity against the top sides they have faced in recent years, and since 2018, they have conceded three times against each of Portugal, England and Croatia.

Portugal vs Spain Tips and Predictions 

The hosts are offered at 5/4 (2.25) to score over 1.5 goals and this looks like an strong option given how strong Portugal have been in front of goal.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having seen off Croatia in impressive form last time out, Al Hain-Cole is backing Les Bleus to ease past Shevchenko's men at the Stade de France

France will be hoping to give the home support something to celebrate when they welcome Ukraine to Paris for Wednesday’s international friendly match.

Les Bleus will be welcoming a small number of supporters back into the ground after playing their last match behind closed doors, with 1,000 fans set to take their place at the Stade de France.

France vs Ukraine Latest Odds

Having won eight and lost none of their last nine fixtures in all competitions, they are 2/5 (1.40) favourites with bet365 to reward the crowd with a victory in the capital.

Andriy Shevchenko’s men were thrashed 4-0 by Spain in their last match but can be backed at 7/1 (8.00) to bounce back with a shock win here.

Just one of the last seven meetings between this duo has resulted in a draw, but you can get odds of 7/2 (4.50) on this one finishing up all square.

France vs Ukraine Team News

Houssem Aouar has been handed a second chance to make his senior debut, having been forced to withdraw from the squad last time due to testing positive for COVID-19.

Andriy Pyatov and Taras Stepanenko have withdrawn, while Yevhen Konoplyanka and Oleksandr Zinchenko are injured for Ukraine.

France vs Ukraine Preview

Having been forced to play their impressive 4-2 Nations League win over Croatia without supporters, Didier Deschamps’ team will be confident of serving up a similar display for the fans this time out.

On current form, they should prove far too strong for a Yellow and Blue side whose only wins in their last eight away matches have come against Lithuania and Luxembourg.

The return of Kylian Mbappe and Paul Pogba should only add credence to that as well, considering they were absent for the victory over Croatia but are back in the squad this time around.

France vs Ukraine Tips and Predictions

Indeed, odds of 11/10 (2.10) seem generous on France winning by at least two clear goals against a Ukraine side that was so easily brushed aside by Spain in their last outing.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With both Southgate's men and the Dragons both looking more comfortable in defence than attack, Al Hain-Cole isn't expecting many goals at Wembley

Local bragging rights are up for grabs when England welcome Wales to Wembley for Thursday’s international friendly.

The Three Lions have not lost against their neighbours since the 1984 Home Championship, winning five out of five encounters since then.

England vs Wales Latest Odds

Having won each of their last seven fixtures on home turf, they are 3/10 (1.30) favourites with bet365 to come out on top once again here.

However, Ryan Giggs’ men come into this clash on the back of a four-match winning streak and can be backed at 8/1 (9.00) to get one over on their rivals in London.
 
The hosts were held to a 0-0 draw by Denmark in their last match, and there are odds of 9/2 (5.50) on them playing out another stalemate in this one.

England vs Wales Team News

Tammy Abraham, Jadon Sancho and Ben Chilwell have been ruled out after breaching COVID regulations, while Raheem Sterling is injured.

Hal Robson-Kanu, Gareth Bale, Joe Allen and Tom Lockyer are all missing for the visitors due to injuries.

England vs Wales Preview

Having scored goals for fun in last year’s qualification matches, Gareth Southgate’s team found the net just once in two frustrating fixtures against Iceland and Denmark during the last international break.

They could be in for another tough test when they take on the Dragons, who have conceded just three times in eight games and kept a clean sheet in each of the most recent four.

Nevertheless, England will at least be confident of keeping things tight themselves after going five matches in a row without conceding, particularly as their opponents have only struck 17 times across their last 17 games.

England vs Wales Tips and Predictions

All in all, odds of 23/20 (2.15) look generous on under 2.5 goals being scored for England’s third match in succession, as well as an eighth in eight for Wales.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>With the Green and White Army struggling for form in recent fixtures, Al Hain-Cole can't see them finding their way past Bajevic's men in Sarajevo

Bosnia and Northern Ireland will be hoping to move one step closer to Euro 2020 qualification when they meet at the Stadion Grbavica in Thursday’s play-off semi-final.

The winner of this one-off clash will go through to a final against either Slovakia or the Republic of Ireland and the opportunity to qualify for next summer’s rescheduled tournament.

Bosnia vs Northern Ireland Latest Odds

Having come out on top in both of their Nations League meetings in 2018, Dusan Bajevic’s men are 10/11 (1.91) favourites with bet365 to progress with another win.

The Green and White Army have won just one of their last seven matches in all competitions, and are 16/5 (4.20) outsiders to pull off a big win in Sarajevo.

A draw would see this clash go to extra-time and potentially penalties, and you can get odds of 23/10 (3.30) on them remaining deadlocked after 90 minutes.

Bosnia vs Northern Ireland Team News

Haris Duljevic will not take part after testing positive for COVID-19, while Milan Duric has been called up to replace the injured Elvir Koljic.

Johnny Evans and Tom Flanagan are both available again after missing September’s matches, although Matthew Kennedy has been ruled out due to injury.

Bosnia vs Northern Ireland Preview

New manager Ian Baraclough certainly has large shoes to fill in replacing Michael O’Neill, who was originally supposed to be in charge for these fixtures before the coronavirus crisis caused their postponement.

Although he made a creditable start in the 1-1 away draw in Romania, the former Under-21 coach then saw his side thrashed 5-1 at home to Norway – hardly ideal preparation for such a crucial game.

In fact, things were not all rosy towards the end under O’Neill, whose tenure ended in a 6-1 defeat in Germany and just one win in the final five matches.

Bosnia vs Northern Ireland Tips and Predictions

All things considered, those 10/11 (1.91) odds look like the sensible option on Bosnia proving too strong for a faltering Northern Ireland on home turf.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>The Red and White held Southgate's men to a goalless draw in the reverse encounter, and Al Hain-Cole is backing them to keep things tight once again

England will be looking to build on their impressive win over Belgium when they welcome Denmark to Wembley in Wednesday’s Nations League clash.

The Three Lions ran out 2-1 winners over the world’s number one ranked side, leapfrogging them into first place in Group A2 in the process.

England vs Denmark Latest Odds

Having won six and lost none of their last seven matches in all competitions, England are 4/6 (1.67) favourites with bet365 to maintain their strong form with another victory here.

However, Kasper Hjulmand’s team has lost just once in 19 fixtures and is available at 4/1 (5.00) to move level on points with the hosts by coming out on top in London.

The sides shared a 0-0 draw in last month’s reverse encounter, and you can get odds of 14/5 (3.80) on them cancelling each other out once again.

England vs Denmark Team News

Harry Kane is set to start after Gareth Southgate rejected Tottenham’s request to release him from the squad, but Ben Chilwell and Kieran Trippier have both withdrawn from the squad.

Andreas Skov Olsen has left the Denmark squad after being stretchered off with a back injury in Sunday’s 3-0 win over Iceland.

England vs Denmark Preview

Although spirits are high now thanks to the Belgium result, the mood was far more muted after last month’s narrow 1-0 win over Iceland and the subsequent 0-0 draw in Copenhagen.

That goalless stalemate was no fluke for the Red and White, who have kept eight clean sheets in their last 10 matches coming into this clash.

They are therefore likely to set up in similarly defensive fashion once again when they take on Southgate’s men, who have only conceded once in seven matches themselves.

England vs Denmark Tips and Predictions

All in all, odds of 10/11 (1.91) are not to be missed on under 2.5 goals being scored once again between England and Denmark.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>After a pair of goalless draws, our tipster is backing the holders of the Nations League to get back to winning ways at the Estadio Jose Alvalade

Portugal look to cement their place at the top of Group Three of League A of the UEFA Nations League with a win over Sweden on Wednesday evening.

Fernando Santos’ men drew 0-0 in France at the weekend to stay in first position, although the result marked their second goalless draw of the international break after a stalemate in a friendly with neighbours Spain.

Sweden, meanwhile, are bottom of the group after three successive defeats but may be in good spirits after claiming a 2-1 friendly win over Russia last week.

Portugal vs Sweden Latest Odds

Portugal have not lost a competitive game on home soil since 2014, although they did lose 3-2 when Sweden visited in a friendly three years ago.

The hosts remain clear favourites to claim three points, priced at 9/20 (1.45) with bet365, with the visitors at 6/1 (7.00) and the draw at 16/5 (4.20).

Portugal vs Sweden Team News

The hosts are without goalkeeper Anthony Lopes and star forward Cristiano Ronaldo after they bothed tested positive for coronavirus.

Sweden defender Filip Helander has left the squad with an injury.

Portugal vs Sweden Preview

This will be the fifth meeting between these two nations in the last seven years, with the most recent clash seeing Portugal win 2-0 last month thanks to a brace from Cristiano Ronaldo.

The Portuguese have a strong scoring record at home, understandably given the array of attacking talent they possess, while Sweden are yet to keep a clean in this edition of the Nations League.

Therefore, backing the hosts to score looks like an appealing prospect with Portugal netting at least twice in five of their last eight clashes against Sweden.

Portugal vs Sweden Tips And Predictions

Portugal to win and score over 1.5 goals is priced at 5/6 (1.83) and looks like a shrewd angle from which to approach backing a home win.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Having lost their scoring touch in recent matches, Al Hain-Cole expects the Oranje to play out a low-scoring clash against Mancini's men in Bergamo

Click Here: kids football tracksuits

Italy will be aiming to move clear at the top of their Nations League group when they welcome the Netherlands to Bergamo on Wednesday.

Roberto Mancini’s team are in first place of Group A1 after winning one and drawing two of the three opening fixtures, extending their unbeaten streak to 18 games in all competitions.

Italy vs Netherlands Latest Odds

Having run out 1-0 winners in the reverse encounter in Amsterdam, they are even money (2.00) favourites with bet365 to continue their good form with another victory here.

The Oranje have failed to win any of their last three matches in all competitions but can be backed at 11/4 (3.75) to return to form by coming out on top at the Gewiss Stadium.

All three of the hosts’ previous home matches in this competition have resulted in draws, and you can get odds of 12/5 (3.40) on them being held to another stalemate in this one.

Italy vs Netherlands Team News

Andrea Belotti is suspended for an accumulation of bookings after picking up a yellow card against Poland, with Ciro Immobile likely to deputise in attack.

Memphis Depay is available again after missing Sunday’s draw with Bosnia, although Marten de Roon will now serve a one-match ban following a yellow card in that clash.

Italy vs Netherlands Preview

While Depay’s return will be more than welcome, it will take a massive turnaround to improve an attack that has lost its way in recent fixtures – scoring just once in four matches and failing to find the net in each of the last three.

It is hard to see them improving on this against the Azzurri, who have only conceded twice in eight matches and gone three matches without conceding.

Nevertheless, Frank de Boer can at least draw some confidence from a backline that has conceded just twice in six fixtures themselves, making a high-scoring clash seem unlikely.

Italy vs Netherlands Tips and Predictions

Indeed, odds of 4/5 (1.80) seem like solid value on under 2.5 goals being scored for Italy’s eighth Nations League game in eight, as well as a seventh in eight for the Netherlands.

All odds correct at time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.

class=”article_teaser__2t5do”>Both the Eagles and the Seagulls have been in fine goalscoring form this season and our tipster is backing Potter's men to continue their good run

Crystal Palace and Brighton will both be hoping to get their seasons back on track when they face off at Selhurst Park on Sunday.

The Eagles began the campaign in fine fashion with wins over Southampton and Manchester United but have since faltered, losing their last two matches before the international break.

It has also been a particularly tough run for the Seagulls who have lost to Chelsea, Man United and Everton, but did ease past Newcastle 3-0 in September.

Crystal Palace vs Brighton Latest Odds

Palace picked up six home wins last season – all against teams in the bottom half – and bet365 make them slight 13/8 (2.63) favourites to take the points on Sunday.

Brighton’s only win this season came on the road and they are 17/10 (2.70) to double their points tally with victory in London.

The sides played out a 1-1 draw in the corresponding fixture last term and a repeat result is offered at 23/10 (3.30).

Crystal Palace vs Brighton Team News

Patrick van Aanholt, Gary Cahill and James Tomkins are all injured for the hosts, but on-loan Michy Batshuayi is able to play after being ineligible against parent club Chelsea last time out.

Graham Potter is sweating on the fitness of Davy Propper, Tariq Lamptey and Alireza Jahanbakhsh, but Florin Andone and Christian Walton are out.

Crystal Palace vs Brighton Preview

Only six Premier League teams managed fewer than 40 goals last season and these two were both amongst that group, but it has been a completely different tale this time around.

The three goals that Palace scored against Man United were more than they managed in a single fixture in all of the 2019-20 campaign, whilst Brighton’s impressive tally of eight goals this term is bettered by only six sides.

Given that Roy Hodgson’s side have shipped nine goals in their last three games, the Seagulls will have plenty of confidence that they can continue their good form in front of goal.

Crystal Palace vs Brighton Tips and Predictions

Brighton are yet to fully reap the rewards of their goalscoring prowess this season and they should be afforded plenty of chances against a struggling and depleted Palace defence.

With that in mind, the 13/8 (2.63) price on the Seagulls to score over 1.5 goals with bet365 offers significant odds-against value for this clash at Selhurst Park.
