Sunday football tips: Manchester United out for revenge against Jose Mourinho
Your one-stop shop for all the best punts from our team of experts
Revenge is in the air and Manchester United will be looking for payback against their former manager Jose Mourinho. Spurs won 6-1 at Old Trafford in October but the two clubs have gone in very different directions since.
The clash in north London is the highlight, but it is far from the only big match of a busy day of football. The relegation scrap between Burnley and Newcastle kicks things off with Arsenal's trip to Sheffield United the last leg, while between those is a huge match in the battle for Champions League qualification as Leicester head to West Ham.

Bets to be placed by 4.30pm
Man Utd to beat Tottenham
Mainz to beat Cologne
Over 2.5 goals Sheff Utd v Arsenal
Sporting to beat Famalicao
Tottenham have lost their last six league games against teams in the top seven and that does not bode well for the visit of Manchester United, who are unbeaten in 22 away top-flight contests.
Cologne have taken two points from their last seven games and could suffer a huge setback against relegation rivals Mainz, while Arsenal are 14 matches without a clean sheet which suggests goals on their trip to Sheffield United.
Sporting are unbeaten this season with a 10-2-0 home record and can bring home the acca when they host Famalicao.

Sheff Utd v Arsenal
BT Sport 1, 7pm

Bet of the day
Leicester, Man Utd and Arsenal to score over 0.5 goals
This treble pays just under evens with Sporting Index and looks rock-solid. West Ham have shipped five in their last two games and Leicester have failed to score only twice on their travels this term. Tottenham gave up 22 shots to Newcastle and are likely to find United too lively, while Sheffield United have kept two clean sheets this season which suggests trouble against Arsenal.
Player to be carded bet of the day
West Ham v Leicester
Mark Noble has a difficult job replacing the injured Declan Rice and 4-1 he gets carded against Leicester is worth taking with bet365.
The Hammers midfielders are asked to do a lot of defensive shielding and explains why partner Tomas Soucek is West Ham's most cautioned player this season. Rice is classy enough to perform interceptions, but veteran Noble struggles for mobility.
Best bet
Mark Noble to be carded
Stat of the day
Tottenham v Man Utd
Spurs have lost 15 points from winning positions and a league-high 11 points in the final ten minutes of matches.
