Nottingham Forest vs Manchester United
Tyler Morris; Premier League Correspondent at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Despite a recent uptick in results, Manchester United remain unpredictable travellers, particularly when matched against well-organised opposition. Nottingham Forest, sitting third in the Premier League, have built their charge around defensive solidity at home—unbeaten in eight on their own turf. They’ve already taken points from both Arsenal and Liverpool at the City Ground and will not fear United.
Chris Wood is doubtful, but Forest have shown resilience in reshaping their attack. Elanga, a former United player, could pose problems with his direct running, while Gibbs-White and Hudson-Odoi create movement and width. United, meanwhile, are still tinkering with their back three and have only won back-to-back league games once this season.
Forest are high on confidence after beating Ipswich and progressing in the FA Cup. With the Red Devils prioritising European ambitions, Forest have the tools to seize the moment and complete a league double over their visitors.
Best bet – Nottingham Forest to Win
Celtic -1 Handicap | |
11/20 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Celtic’s recent dominance over St Mirren, combined with their pre-season momentum and home advantage, suggests another strong performance. With attacking threats firing and St Mirren’s poor record in this fixture, a two-goal margin looks well within reach. | |
Arsenal vs Fulham
Herrin Kendrick; London Football Expert at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Arsenal may still be in the title picture, but their form at the Emirates has been far from dominant. With just four wins in their last nine home matches, Mikel Arteta’s side have appeared vulnerable—particularly defensively, with no clean sheets in their previous four home games. Fulham, meanwhile, are a dangerous opponent right now.
Marco Silva’s men have triumphed in four of their last six Premier League outings and boast five away wins in their last six trips. Their setup is built to frustrate big sides, as seen in their controlled dismantling of Tottenham, and they held Arsenal to a 1-1 draw earlier in the campaign.
Arsenal will be without key forwards Jesus and Havertz, and while Saka may feature, he’s not expected to start. Fulham’s counter-attacking threat—especially through Iwobi and Willian—could hurt Arsenal again. This game is set up for an upset or at least a stalemate.
Best bet – Fulham Double Chance (Win or Draw)
PSV to Win and Over 2.5 Goals | |
20/21 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning PSV are full of attacking confidence and superior in every area. With Pepi and Bakayoko involved, expect goals. Go Ahead Eagles will struggle to match their intensity or creativity, especially without key players. | |
Wolverhampton vs West Ham
Gram Dodd; Tactical Specialist at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Wolves have shown signs of fight under Vitor Pereira, especially with their gritty win over Southampton. However, their home record is concerning—three defeats in their last five at Molineux suggest a lack of assurance in front of their own fans. With Matheus Cunha and other attacking options sidelined, the goals may have to come from less potent sources like Strand Larsen.
West Ham, although inconsistent, have fared well in this fixture historically, having beaten Wolves in their last three meetings. Their 1-1 draw with Everton showed defensive resilience, and the partnership of Kudus and Bowen offers mobility and pace on the break.
With Wolves short in firepower and the Hammers looking structured, this game looks tight. A low-scoring encounter feels likely, but backing the visitors to avoid defeat provides a good edge.
Best bet – West Ham Double Chance (Win or Draw)
Charleroi to Win | |
49/50 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning Charleroi have been outstanding at home and know how to beat Sint-Truiden. With good momentum and confidence from a late comeback in their opener, they’re in position to take all three points against a side that struggles away. | |
Empoli vs Bologna
Wolfgang Shotten; Serie A Analyst at BettingTips4You
Rationale:
Empoli’s fairytale Coppa Italia run has masked their deep-rooted struggles in the league. Winless in 15 Serie A matches, they are short on confidence and even shorter on reliable first-team regulars due to injuries and suspensions. Their penalty shootout win over Juventus in the quarter-final was valiant, but not reflective of their current form.
Bologna, in stark contrast, are enjoying a superb campaign. They’ve won six in a row across all competitions and come into this cup semi-final with Champions League football also firmly in sight. Riccardo Orsolini is in tremendous form, having netted 11 goals this season, and will be a constant danger from wide positions.
Vincenzo Italiano’s men are playing with fluency and control, and they have the tactical discipline to break down a compact but limited Empoli side. Given their recent dominance and Empoli’s ongoing league woes, Bologna should take the advantage in this first leg.
Best bet – Bologna to Win
John McAtee to Score Anytime | |
14/5 - odds when tipped |  |
Reasoning McAtee’s positional intelligence and goal threat make him an ideal pick to score against a Stockport side adjusting defensively. Bolton’s attacking setup gives him licence to drift into goal-scoring zones, and he’s looked sharp heading into the new campaign. | |
Tuesday’s Super Double
- Bruno Fernandes to Score Anytime (Nottingham Forest vs Man United)
Fernandes remains United’s main source of goals and will likely be on penalty duty. His deeper role still allows him to find scoring chances. - Over 2.5 Goals (Arsenal vs Fulham)
Arsenal games at home tend to produce goals, and Fulham can certainly contribute. With vulnerabilities in both defences, the goals should come.
Double Rationale:
This double features two proven trends: Fernandes is United’s most reliable attacking figure, and Arsenal vs Fulham has the potential for a goal-laden clash. Both legs complement each other with balanced risk and strong logic, offering a good mix of player performance and match flow dynamics.
Sunday’s Super Double | |
3/1 - odds when tipped | |
Reasoning This combo backs attacking patterns in two very different leagues. Celtic’s aggressive style means set pieces should flow. Meanwhile, Charleroi’s defensive gaps and Sint-Truiden’s pace hint at goals both ways. With solid logic and current form aligned, this Sunday Double looks full of value. | |
