Best Bet: Tottenham/Manchester United over 3.5 goals (+105)
These two sides last met on Dec. 19 and it was a game to show to the soccer haters.
Tottenham stole a win, 4-3, in a non-league fixture, but it was Man U pouring on the pressure. The side had 20 shot attempts and 2.56 xG, per FotMob.
Tottenham bagged four goals on a measly 0.67 xG which is impressive, but I expect more chances this go around.
The first meeting between these two clubs finished 3-0 to the side on Man U but I am confident Spurs can score at least a goal on Sunday.
Tottenham has the sixth-most xG (40.4) and scores the third-most goals per match (2.0).
Manchester United can get in high-danger spots, too. The Red Devils have 34.2 xG this season. It's worth taking a shot at another offensive explosion at this juicy price.
Key stat: Tottenham allows 1.5 goals against per match.
Quick pick
Nottingham Forest over 1.5 goals (+205): Nottingham Forest has been a huge surprise this season.
It currently sits third on the Premier League table with a 14-5-5 record. The side's relied on strong defence over offence this season but recent results can't be ignored.
In its last EPL match, Forest steamrolled Brighton 7-0. The game before was a 5-0 defeat but the Tricky Trees scored in six of the eight league fixtures before that.
The side also managed to score against Liverpool in a 1-1 draw on Jan. 14.
Playing a tough Fulham side on the road is a tall task but I think these odds are worth the risk.
