Sunday football tips: Newcastle and Fulham could enhance their survival chances

There are some crucial fixtures at the bottom of the Premier League on Sunday as the five clubs lying in 14th to 18th in the table are all in action.

A win for Fulham at Aston Villa would boost their survival hopes while Newcastle, who host Tottenham, are also in thick of the relegation battle. Southampton and Burnley, who meet in the midday kick-off, are not out of the woods and resurgent Brighton travel to Manchester United in the evening game.

Bets to be placed by 3.15pm

Real Betis to beat Elche

Union Berlin to beat Hertha Berlin

Ajax to beat Heerenveen

Marseille to beat Dijon

Union Berlin have lost only once at home in the Bundesliga and are a big price to see off derby rivals Hertha while Real Betis have won five of their last six in La Liga.

Ajax are a cut above Heerenveen and Marseille should ease past Ligue 1's bottom club Dijon in a fourfold that pays almost 8-1 with Hills.
