Manchester United vs Brighton

Leg 1: Both Teams To Score

Brighton make their second trip to Manchester in the space of a week and a third of the season as they face Manchester United at Old Trafford.

The Seagulls battled for a point at Etihad and could’ve had more but for a Diego Gomez sitter. They also scored twice in the last visit to the Theatre of Dreams, losing 4-2 in a tepid display. Clean sheets and consistency have been an issue for Fabian Hurzeler’s side, who have seen BTTS in 14/21 – a total bettered by just one team- Manchester United.

The Red Devils have seen BTTS in 16/21, the highest in the Premier League. Due to the sacking of Ruben Amorim, Darren Fletcher will be in the Old Trafford dugout for the first time, after drawing 2-2 at Burnley in his opener.

With both teams likely to rotate, we should see fringe players chomping at the bit to impress on Sunday evening- a recipe for goals.

Norwich vs Walsall

Leg 2: Norwich To Win

Heavily favoured for a playoff push in pre-season, Norwich started the season awfully, leading to the sacking of Liam Manning in November. Philippe Clement has taken over and has turned the Canaries around, although they are still one point from safety.

Despite back-to-back losses at Carrow Road, there has been notable improvement at home, winning the previous three games in front of their own supporters after losing the first seven.

Walsall looked destined for promotion last year, sat miles clear at the top of League Two, but an unprecedented collapse at the turn of the year saw them drop out of the automatic promotion. Saddlers fans may be worried the same is happening again after back-to-back losses and just one win in five. Still, they are sitting third, but with a busy period coming up, Matt Saddler may prioritise their playoff push.

Portsmouth vs Arsenal

Leg 3: Arsenal Win To Nil

Portsmouth are just one point clear of safety in the Championship after a tough start to the campaign. Injuries continue to mount up for John Mousinho, who has over ten players missing, while also looking to motivate a side that ranks second bottom for form over the last 20 games.

Arsenal, the current Premier League leaders, make their first trip to Fratton Park since their cup triumph in 2020. Mikael Arteta will have one eye on midweek's Carabao Cup semi-final with bitter London rivals Chelsea, so some rotation is expected. Still, the Gunners have a host of internationals to call upon and should have no problem keeping a clean sheet – something they have done 18 times already this season.

Sheffield United vs Mansfield

Leg 4: Mansfield +1.5 Handicap

Chris Wilder is not one to take the cup seriously, with the wily campaigner focused on a late-season playoff charge. Previously, they have scraped past non-league minnows AFC Fylde and lost to Barnet in the FA Cup, so it would not be a surprise to see a heavily rotated Blades side. With the playoffs still a distinct possibility, Wilder will have other priorities.

The visitors are 3/3 since Christmas, recording impressive wins away at Bolton and Barnsley and at home to Mansfield. Buoyed by the recent run of form, Nigel Clough will fancy his side's chances of leaving his former stomping ground with a cupset, or at least a marginal loss.

West Ham vs QPR

Leg 5: Both Teams To Score

West Ham are in dire straits. Without a win in ten after a loss to fellow strugglers Nottingham Forest, the Hammers are now seven points adrift, and full focus will be on survival. At home, only Wolves have taken fewer points than West Ham, who have just seven to their name. Of their 11 games at the London Stadium, seven have seen BTTS.

QPR will be backed by a large contingent of travelling supporters as they look to shock their Premier League hosts. The Hoops are three points off the playoffs after a 3-0 win over basement boys Sheffield Wednesday. They have now scored 38 and conceded 39 goals in 26 games, with BTTS landing in 19/26 league games.

The best odds for the above Five-fold Acca is 11/1 at PaddyPower.
