LEEDS vs MANCHESTER UNITED
Leeds are currently 16th on the log, and on a decent run which has seen them undefeated in their last 6 matches with 4 draws and 2 victories. They got a valuable point last time out, drawing 0-0 away to Liverpool, a game where the draw was trading at 4.50 pre-match.
Manchester United are 6th on the table, but can’t seem to get a consistent run together and last time out drew 1-1 at home to Wolves with the draw being priced at 5.40 on that occasion.
Head-to-Head
The last time Leeds hosted Manchester United was in the 2022/2023 season where United won 2-0.

Leeds 2.70
Draw 3.40
Manchester United 2.60
Verdict
I was expecting a slightly bigger price on Leeds and may have been tempted for a win bet if they were around 3.00 mark. For me though the value here is the draw especially given the high number of draws Leeds have had recently.
BET: The draw at 3.40

TOTTENHAM vs SUNDERLAND
Tottenham are currently 12th on the table and played out a goalless draw at Brentford in their last start on New Year’s day. They have struggled at home this season and have only taken 8 points from a possible 27 in front of their own fans.
Sunderland are 7th on the log and have steadied the ship somewhat in recent weeks, undefeated in their last 4 matches although their last 3 games have been draws, but this includes an impressive goalless draw at home to Manchester City on New Year’s day.
Head-to-Head
These sides last met in the Premier League in 2016/17 season when this fixture was played out to a goalless draw.

Tottenham 1.83
Draw 3.65
Sunderland 4.25
Verdict
Tottenham are the odds on favourites for this game, but for me Sunderland have been more impressive of late and I am backing the upset to win.
BET: Sunderland win at 4.25
MANCHESTER CITY vs CHELSEA
What a clash to end the weekend as 2nd place City take on 5th place Chelsea.
Manchester City started 1.45 favourites away to Sunderland in their last start, but they saw a 6-match winning run ended when they could only play out a goalless draw. At home City have been almost perfect with 8 wins and 1 loss in 9 matches.
Chelsea are 5th on the log, but only have 1 win in their last 5. They drew 2-2 at home to Bournemouth last time, a game where they started 1.60 favourites. Over 2.5 goal backers would have collected profits in Chelsea’s last 3 matches.
Head-to-Head
These sides met in the League last season with Manchester City doing the double which included a 3-1 win at home.

Manchester City 1.63
Draw 4.50
Chelsea 4.75
Verdict
I think this will be a competitive game, but I think City will edge it by exactly a goal.
BET: Winning Margin Manchester City by 1 goal exactly at 4.25
