Man United look a solid bet at general price of 8/13 to win their away game at Cardiff today (4pm Ko, Live on Sky Sports 1).
The hosts have made a good start to life in the top flight under Malky Mackay, beating both Man City and arch rivals Swansea at home.
They will certainly be no pushover judge on those displays, but united are now starting to get their act together under David Moyes and have won their last three league games – including two on the road.
They also have a strike Robin van Persie who is back among the goals again and has now scored in four consectutive league games.
The Dutchman is going to be a real handful for the Cardiff defence in his current form, and the 6/5 available with bet365 about him netting anytime looks a cracking punt given that is is odds-on with plenty of other firms.
In the correct score market I like the look of a 2-1 or 3-1 win for United, and those outcomes can be backed 8/1 and 14/1 respectively with bet365. Small split stakes look the way to play.
