Sheffield United v Sheffield Wednesday Tip - Nil problems for hosts

Sunday, 12:00Live on Sky Sports 

Sheffield United could have the opportunity to send Steel City rivals Sheffield Wednesday down on Sunday.

The Owls could already be relegated come kick off, if Blackburn and Preston have drawn on Friday evening and West Brom have beaten Coventry on Saturday afternoon, an outcome I am sure those in S6 would prefer.

We were reminded of Chris Wilder's roofless streak in the reverse.

It was a tricky time for the Blades to play Wednesday as they'd just been put in administration. The fans ended the boycott and it was a sellout at Hillsborough.

The Blades didn't concede a single shot on target that afternoon, had seven of their own, scored three and could've had more.

No doubt Wilder will want to rub their noses in it on Sunday and at 1.83 with the Exchange, backing the hosts to win and both teams to score 'no' seems the most sensible way.

Wednesday have only scored once in the last 11 games, a run dating all the way back to Boxing Day, and have not netted on the road in their last five.

Crystal Palace v Wolves - Box office performance against former employers

Sunday, 14:00Live on Sky Sports+

Jorgen Strand Larsen left Wolves for Crystal Palace in January. On Sunday, his current club hosts his former club and there's a narrative driven punt which appeals at a big price.

In two Premier League games at his new club, Larsen has been booked once and scored twice. All told he has nine goals and four bookings for club and country this term and last season he netted 14 times and picked up five cards, getting a goal and a card on two occasions.

On Sunday, Yerson Mosquera will be one of the Wolves defenders marking Larsen. He's got eight cards this season, committed 1.2 fouls per game and drawn 1.7.

The defender was sent tumbling to the ground after Gabriel Jesus pushed him on the full-time whistle against Arsenal in midweek.

He'll try and get upder his former team mates skin so the 14/1 backing Larsen to score and be carded appeals.

Nottingham Forest vs Liverpool - Reds to roll on

Sunday, 14:00Live on Sky Sports

Nottingham Forest are on their fourth manager of the campaign. It's only February. It's a Premier League record.

They started the season with Nuno Espirito Santo and his counter attacking football. There it was all-out-attack with Ange Postecoglou. After a winless stint of eight games, he was replaced by Sean Dyche and he was on track to keep Forest in the division before getting the chop.

Now they've got Vitor Pereira, not sure it's an upgrade on Dyche, but the new man got off to an emphatic start in Europe on Thursday as his side beat Fenerbahce 3-0.

It's back to domestic duty this Sunday before the return leg of that Europa League play-off second leg next Thursday.

Forest start the weekend three points above the relegation zone and face a Liverpool side which has improved recently.

Since the defeat at Bournemouth, the Reds have played five, won four, kept three clean sheets and scored 15 goals.

Arne Slot's side have a good record against the bottom half.

They lost the reverse and against Crystal Palace at the start of their losing streak in Autumn but those are the only two matches in 13 against the bottom half they have lost.

With Dominik Szoboszlai back from suspension, getting Liverpool onside by combining them to win and under 4.5 goals appeals at 5/4.

Sunderland vs Fulham - No bet at Stadium of Light

Sunday, 14:00Live on Sky Sports

Sunderland's league form has curtailed in recent weeks, no doubt Granit Xhaka's absence is partially to blame.

The Black Cats lost their unbeaten home record in their last top flight fixture against Liverpool and have slumped to the bottom half of the Premier League table.

They look to get back to win against Fulham on Sunday afternoon.

The Cottagers are on a similar run of form and are winless away from home since the turn of the year.

No bet for me at the Stadium of Light as two out of form teams do battle.

Tottenham vs Arsenal - On the cards in the NLD

Sunday, 16:30Live on Sky Sports 

Tottenham will be hoping the appointment of Igor Tudor brings a new lease of life. He often makes an immediate impact at clubs winning all four of his first games incharge in his previous four roles.

I'm not sure I could get Spurs onside, even at the prices, but it should be a competitive North London derby with plenty of violence.

There were four cards flashed in the reverse, a game where Arsenal cruised to a 4-1 victory at the Emirates, and the two fixtures last season saw a combined total of 12 cards flashed.

Peter Banks has the whistle, a good appointment. He has averaged 4.17 cards a game this season, dishing out five or more in 18 of 18 top flight appearances including Sunderland vs Newcastle, where he flashed nine yellows.

So, we can hope for plenty of cards. Annoyingly though, the card markets (total cards, player cards, red cards) have all taken a hit since they dropped on Thursday afternoon.

The three players I had in mind (Archie Gray, Micky van de Ven, Viktor Gyokeres) have all come too short.

I do think there is some juice in Djed Spence's price to be carded at 3/1. In two seasons at Spurs, he has a 0.23 cards per 90 average and could be opposing Bukayo Saka on Sunday.
