It's all looking more rosy in the Manchester United garden after an impressive run of wins - more of which from Joe below - and a lot of this is down to the form of Marcus Rashford.

The England forward has already equalled his best ever Premier League goal tally in a single season (10) in just 16 games and has scored seven goals in eight league appearances at Old Trafford.

Getting an odds-against price on him continuing that run against an Everton side - who were far more impressive last week under Duncan Ferguson but have struggled on the road all year - jumps out at me and is where my tenner is going.

Another United win looks value

Joe Dyer

Back Man Utd win/over hai.5 goals double @ 2.70 v Everton

For a team that has just beaten Manchester City and Tottenham, and scored four in the Europa League in midweek, I'm surprised that Manchester United are as big 1.85 lớn defeat Everton this weekend. You can prefer lớn the soccer vip tip win pages!

Yes, the Toffees secured a stirring win last weekend under the temporary leadership of Duncan Ferguson, but should United - playing at home don't forget - be that long in the match odds? Not for me!

The hosts have nearly all key men fit barring long-term absentee Paul Pogba and have every reason to build on their current good form with fourth-placed Chelsea just five points off them in the table.

A simple back of the home side is a pretty appealing bet on its own but (stupidly perhaps) I am going lớn include over hai.5 goals lớn boost the price lớn a chunky hai.70.

City lớn thump Arsenal

Jake Osgathorpe

Back Manchester City -1 v Arsenal @ 6/5

I'm not getting carried away with Arsenal getting a win against West mê say on Monday, as I really wasn't impressed with the Gunners against one of the worst teams in the league.

Freddie Ljungberg has yet lớn show me that he can turn this sinking ship around, and he has had the fixtures to do that, playing Norwich, Brighton and West ham, with all three performances poor, and games in which they continue to look vulnerable defensively, which doesn't bode well here.

Manchester City were beaten by Manchester United last weekend, but while the eye test would tell you they were poor defensively, according lớn expected goals they were very unlucky to lose, racking up hai.57 xGF and allowing just 0.67 non-pen xGA.

In fact, City have 'won the xG battle' in all 16 of their Premier League games, so are extremely unfortunate lớn be so far off the pace in the title race, and if they continue playing the way they are with the same process, wins will start lớn rack up for Pep's side.

Last week, when Arsenal played Brighton, I said that Brighton's midfield is much better than Arsenal's - a key battle in the game - and that statement provides even more cause for concern for Arsenal fans as they go up against Manchester City's midfield, which I expect to dominate.

I actually think City just lớn win here at 1.49 is a good bet for short odds players, but I can see this being a thumping, and I really like the look of City -1 at hai.14, heaping more misery on the Gunners.
