Man United rate a solid bet at the 4/7 generally on offer to win their away game at Stoke today (3pm KO).
The home side are badly out of form at present, losing five and winning none of their last six games.
By stark contrast, for all the David Moyes’ side have not been at their best this season, they have won six of their last eight in the Premier League.
The defeats came at the hands of top-five sides Spurs and Chelsea, and the arrival of Juan Mata seemed to give them a boost in their win over Cardiff on Tuesday.
The Spaniard put in a solid perfromance in his first start in a red shirt – linking up well, passing with accuracy and having several attempts on goal.
The game also saw the return of Robin van Persie who scored the opening goal and will be hungry for more following his spell on the sidelines.
The Ducthman has scored nine goals in eight league matches against the Potters, and will do for me at the 4/1 on offer with BetVictor and Coral to bag the opener in this.
He can also be backed at a standout 23/20 with BetVictor to score anytime, and that looks cracking value given that he is as short as 4/6 to do so elsewhere.
