Dare to sprout for thrills astatine Manchester United.
These days, Old Trafford and thrills spell unneurotic similar a equine and garage.
Wednesday’s 1-1 with Europa also-rans Twente would erstwhile person been a standout shocker. It’s a much crowded tract now.
It can’t get overmuch worse, but it won’t get overmuch amended without idiosyncratic who tin crook much shots into goals.
Take retired the 7-0 implicit Barnsley, and United person had 95 shots successful 7 games truthful far, scoring conscionable implicit a extremity a match.
Before their midweek Europa win, visitors Tottenham (4.30pm) had besides had 95 shots – successful a crippled less – but for astir TWO goals a pop.
Free-shooting Bruno Fernandes is United’s astir wasteful. Luckily for us, and for Bruno, the shot doesn’t request to really spell successful the nett to get paid.
Fernandes ‘OVER 2.5 shots’ astatine 19/20 (Hills) is close connected target.
Spurs tally Manchester City a adjacent 2nd connected shots per game, with Dominic Solanke and Brennan Johnson doing overmuch of the dense lifting.
Take Solanke ‘OVER 2.5 shots’ astatine 13/10 (BetVic), and Johnson ‘OVER 1.5 shots’ astatine 4/6 (Bet365) – that play is arsenic abbreviated arsenic 2/7 elsewhere.
Aston Villa ace sub Jhon Duran has travel connected and scored 4 times for the Villans this play – and they mightiness request his precocious heroics again astatine Ipswich (2pm).
The Tractor Boys seldom threaten, but they plough a reasonably choky furrow defensively and could get Unai Emery’s boys huffing and puffing.
The awkward contented for wannabe Duran punters is that subordinate markets get framed astir starters, not finishers – and Ollie Watkins rightly has that starter gig successful his pocket.
Watkins has shaken disconnected immoderate post-Euros flatness, and the 10/11 (Paddy) ‘score oregon assist’ is bob-on.
Bristol City person kept 2 cleanable sheets distant from location since past Christmas, and nary cleanable sheets anyplace astatine each this season.
Hosts Swansea (3pm) aren’t ideally equipped to exploit them, but indirect set-piece threats Liam Cullen astatine 10/3 (Unibet) and Harry Darling astatine 9/1 (Boylesports) ‘anytime scorer’ could beryllium there’s much than 1 mode to tegument a Robin.
Five of the past six Madrid derbies – Atletico v Real (8pm, ITV4) – were drawn astatine 90mins. Bet a DRAW contiguous astatine 5/2 (Lads, Coral).
