<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Gary Neville makes a short trip north with his Valencia side who take on an in-from Villarreal, who are unbeaten in five across all competitions, winning four and drawing once.</span></span></div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.4em; margin-bottom: 0.375em; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Formidable forward force</span></h2>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The <span style="color: #004191;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.298039); background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Yellow Submarine will be confident of sinking Valencia, and are odds-on at 5/6 courtesy of Coral to do so</span></span>, with an array of attackers who were in prolific form before the winter break.</span></div>
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700; line-height: 24.5455px;"></span></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Attacking midfielder Denis Suarez sunk Real Sociedad away from home, with a brilliant brace and, as a result, the talented 21-year-old Spaniard is 13/5 to find the net anytime once more.</span></div>
<div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">In their last home match against Real Madrid, Villarreal remarkably emerged victorious, with Roberto Soldado scoring the only goal. The imposing striker is 9/2 to break the deadlock, while Cedric Bakambu who bagged a brace at home at the beginning of December is 13/8 to net anytime.</span></div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.4em; margin-bottom: 0.375em; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Neville needs draws converted into wins</span></h2>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Since he has taken over, under Neville’s stewardship, Valencia have taken two points from six in La Liga, as well as winning a Copa del Rey match.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While it arguably takes a while for players to adapt to a new coach’s methods, the team need to start picking up wins and fans will remember that they beat Villarreal 3-1 in this fixture last season.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">On that occasion, Shkodran Mustafi surprised everyone to bag a brace and the defender is 17/2 to net again anytime. Last time out, Paco Alcacer scored the opener and is 13/2 to break the deadlock, while fellow striker <span style="color: #004191;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.298039); background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">Santiago Mina has scored three in the club’s last five fixtures across all competitions and is 7/2 to net anytime</span></span>.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">While the <span style="color: #004191;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.298039); background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">second half of the La Liga season make for an intriguing prospect for Neville</span></span>, the former Manchester United player does have targets, earmarking both cup competitions and a top four finish as aims.</span></div>

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="border: 0px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Man United</span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">The winless count in all competitions is now up to eight games, which is the longest it has been since January 1990, but there was a slight increase in optimism after a 0-0 draw with Chelsea last time out which, if nothing else, brought an end to a four-match losing streak.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Louis van Gaal said that the players' effort ensured there he had no need to consider resigning, and it doesn't appear as though fans will force his exit either. They <span style="border: 0px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">resisted the bait</span> of the Jose Mourinho scarves being sold outside the ground, with many instead applauding the current boss at the start and finish.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Another positive for the Dutchman is that his injury list has been trimmed rather than extended by the hectic Christmas schedule. The number of players sidelined has dropped to four, yet unfortunately they are all wide men: Luke Shaw, Marcos Rojo, Antonio Valencia and Jesse Lingard.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">

<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Curtis hasn't wildly altered the Garry Monk formula, but the change does seem to have stirred a reaction from the players, with Monday's point at Crystal Palace especially impressive given the squad rotation that he engineered, which included benching Andre Ayew and Gylfi Sigurdsson.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">That cautious approach to the fixture pile-up has <span style="border: 0px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">limited the number of injuries</span> that they have to contend with. Federico Fernandez is the sole regular who might not make it, with Wayne Routledge, Franck Tabanou and Eder also doubts.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">

<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Swansea have beaten Man United three times in a row and on each of those occasions, the 20-time champions were carrying a lot more momentum into the collision, either due to winning their previous contest or - on the opening day of 2014/15 - due to enjoying a formidable pre-season.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">So with the Red Devils in terrible form and their Welsh guests beginning to rebuild their confidence courtesy of a run of three games without a defeat - every single one against teams in the top two-thirds of the table - <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: color 0.2s;">it is a surprise that the away triumph is trading at enormous odds of</span> <span class="inline-odds has-qtip" data-hasqtip="5" oldtitle="6/1" style="background: rgb(255, 184, 12); border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 3px 2px 1px;" title="">7.20</span>.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">It wasn't just last term that the Swans won at Old Trafford either, they were also victorious in the FA Cup in 2013/14 when David Moyes was in charge of the hosts, so they are targeting a third win in three campaigns at the Theatre of Dreams, and a fifth success in six against them at all venues.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;"><br style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;" /><span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: color 0.2s;">Under 2.5 Goals</span></span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">The one benefit for Man United of their transition from drawing all the time to losing all the time was that it kicked their 0-0 habit, though even that development was established as temporary by their stalemate with Chelsea on Monday.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-text-stroke-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0); -webkit-text-stroke-width: 1px; background-color: white; border: 0px; color: #1e1e1e; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; line-height: 21px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 0.5em; text-align: justify;">
<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">Seven of their past ten Premier League encounters have delivered under 2.5 goals, including four in five at home, and Swansea are the kind of opponents likely to enhance those ratios further at <span style="background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; border: 0px; font-weight: 600; margin: 0px; padding: 0px; transition: color 0.2s;">the appealing price of</span> <span class="inline-odds has-qtip" data-hasqtip="6" oldtitle="4/5" style="background: rgb(255, 184, 12); border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 3px 2px 1px;" title="">1.83</span>.</span></div>

<span style="border: 0px; margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">The Swans have kept three successive clean sheets and their most recent three matches churned out just one goal in total while, even before that sequence, their 2-1 reverse at Manchester City only scaled those heights due to two 90th-minute strikes.</span></div>

<span style="box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;"><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Liverpool have won their last two trips to Sunderland and, with Sam Allardyce’s side struggling some <span style="color: #004191;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.298039); background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; box-sizing: border-box;">seven points from Premier League safety</span></span>, it is hard to see anything other an away win.</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Coral are entirely justified, then, in making Jurgen Klopp’s Red odds-on 7/10 favourites for victory at the Stadium of Light, with the hosting Black Cats a big price at 9/2 to record an upset.</span></div>
<div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Sunderland have the worst top-flight defensive record with 37 goals conceded, so it is difficult to even make the case for a draw at 11/4. Big Sam could be without both John O’Shea and Younes Kaboul, leaving the home team short at centre half.</span></div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.4em; margin-bottom: 0.375em; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Former Kop flops have plenty to prove</span></h2>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">That will leave much of the defending in the hands of ex-Anfield prospect Sebastian Coates, but the rangy Uruguay international is yet to fulfill the potential that a 6ft 5in physical centre back should in the Premier League.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If O’Shea fails to overcome a calf problem, Coates will have an even older partner in rusty veteran Wes Brown. A Black Cats backline pairing such as this will find stopping Liverpool scoring nigh on impossible.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">One bright light for Sunderland in a bleak mid-winter has been the festive form of Fabio Borini – another that failed to rock the Kop. He’s scored in successive games before his battle with his old employers, albeit consolation goals.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">

Punters can stake a maximum of £20 on this boosted price, which in the regular market is 7/2.</span></div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.4em; margin-bottom: 0.375em; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Benteke often batters Black Cats</span></h2>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">When on Aston Villa’s books during better times for the West Midlands outfit, who like Allardyce’s side are already staring relegation in the face, Christian Benteke had a huge hand in crushing Sunderland.</span></div>
</div>
<div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">The big Belgium frontman starred in a 6-1 thumping, hitting a hat-trick in 2013, but it is the brace he bagged when last visiting the Stadium of Light earlier this year in a 4-0 rout that added extra evidence to backing Benteke in scorer markets.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">

<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Having talked with Reds boss Klopp, he is looking to become more of a team player.<em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“I spoke with the manager a few days ago about where I can improve and what he is expecting from me,”</em> Benteke said. <em style="box-sizing: border-box;">“I have to run more and I have to be there for my team-mates.”</em></span></div>
<h2 style="background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 500; line-height: 1.4em; margin-bottom: 0.375em; text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: small;">Merseyside men should smash Sunderland</span></h2>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">If Liverpool reproduce the breath-taking away displays that saw Southampton hit for six in the Capital One Cup, and Manchester City humbled in November, then<span style="color: #004191;"><span style="-webkit-tap-highlight-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.298039); background-attachment: initial; background-clip: initial; background-image: initial; background-origin: initial; background-position: 0px 0px; background-repeat: initial; background-size: initial; box-sizing: border-box; font-weight: 700;">another matchday special of 9/4 on an away win by two or more goals</span></span> is worth investing in.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Klopp’s crew will have to do without Divock Origi and Daniel Sturridge on Wearside, as neither are being risked for this trip. That means more is needed from Brazil international duo Philippe Coutinho and Roberto Firmino, who are both 7/4 anytime scorer shouts here.</span></div>
<div style="-webkit-font-feature-settings: 'liga' 1, 'dlig' 1; background-color: white; box-sizing: border-box; line-height: 24.5455px; word-break: break-word; word-wrap: break-word;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;">Clean sheets on the road are also something of a novelty for the Reds, so yet another matchday special of 3/1 for an away win and both teams scoring should be considered.</span></div>
