SUNDAY TIPS
Nottm Forest v West Ham 12:00
Yeah they're away from home, but it's a fair indication of how shit the Hammers are at the moment that despite playing in a division higher, they're still 16/5 outsiders here. The fact Allardyce has decided to play the stiffs won't help either but his priorities understandably lie elsewhere. Forest are going well in the Championship but 17/20 on the home win still seems a touch short, if the most likely. They don't concede many, West Ham don't score many, so the Forest clean sheet at 9/5 might be worth a look. Under 2.5 goals at 11/10 too.
Prediction: 2-0 (10/1)
Derby v Chelsea 14:15
Jose will probably decide to shuffle his pack too but the difference between Chelsea and West Ham is that the Blues' second string will still be full of internationals. Derby are going well in the Championship but it's nigh on impossible to see past the away win here (4/11). Could be tight though (depending on selections) so keep an eye on Derby with a +1 handicap at 11/5. Willian to score any time at 5/2, call it a hunch...
Prediction: 0-2 (13/2)
Liverpool v Oldham 15:00
Didn't go so well for the Scousers when these two met in the cup last year. Difficult to see lightning striking twice though and the home win at 1/9 reflects that. How much they'll win by will probably depend on Luis Suarez's involvement (or lack of). If he's in the team, 5.5+ match goals at 7/2 is tempting. I suspect he'll be rested though, in which case 2-3 goals at 29/20 might be worth a look. Another hunch, Sterling any time at evens.
Prediction: 3-0 (11/2)
Man Utd v Swansea 16:30
Fancy the draw here (10/3), and some botched, half-arse squad rotation from David Moyes. Who knows who he'll pick, so lets stay away from the scorer markets and have a look at BTTS at 3/4 instead.
Prediction: 1-1 (15/2)

Liverpool make it through with a 2-0 win over Oldham, although no Suarez goals which scuppered my acca....
and a cracking result for the Swans... Man Utd 1-2 Swansea, the Swans come through after Wilfried Bony's late header gave them their first ever victory at Old Trafford to say say bye-bye to a 10 man Utd after Fabio received a straight red card for a foul on Jose Canas...
Looking scarce for any meaningful silverware for David Moyes doesn't it!!! -

He'll always have the Community Shield Russy, you'll not take that away from him.
After yesterday and the Spurs defeat those 7 wins in a row seem a long time ago now don't they? And the poor chap looks a broken man. What odds on him still being there at the start of next season? Not sure that the board would sack him, but I can see him walking. -
