ibfm23's Tips

7th January 2026
19:30 Brentford v Sunderland

Brentford

150 WIN

Brentford and Sunderland have exceeded all expectations this year, thanks largely to their respective home form. Both sides are unbeaten in their last five matches, but while Sunderland have mainly limited the damage with four draws, Brentford are in top gear and have won three of those five. My verdict: Brentford to win. Stakes: Medium.
19:30 Crystal Palace v Aston Villa

Aston Villa

150 WIN

Aston Villa quickly shrugged off their defeat to Arsenal with a convincing 3-1 win against Nottingham Forest. They travel to a troubled Crystal Palace side, who have won just once in their last six matches and are currently winless at Selhurst Park since early November. My verdict: Aston Villa to win. Stakes: Medium.
20:15 Burnley v Man Utd

Man Utd

150 WIN

Manchester United are expected to bounce back from last weekend's managerial drama, and their opponents, Burnley, are in even poorer shape??"winless in 11 matches, with just two draws and nine losses during that run. My verdict: Manchester United to win. Stakes: Medium.
20:15 Newcastle v Leeds

Newcastle

200 WIN

Newcastle have won back-to-back matches and will look to make it three in a row to continue pushing for a Champions League spot. Leeds, despite a commendable unbeaten run, are one of the weakest sides on the road, losing six of ten away from Elland Road. My verdict: Newcastle to win. Stakes: Medium-High.
