M1 Brentford vs Liverpool: Like Friday’s Soccer 10, TAB is adding R500,000 to this bet so you are guaranteed a bumper pool and an inflated payout. It’s another tough home game for Brentford after losing to Manchester City a fortnight ago. Liverpool lost 3-1 away at Brentford last season.

M2 Chippa United vs Cape Town City: First of five PSL clashes in the pool. Chippa return to East London for this fixture, hoping to end a run of six games without success against Cape Town city.

M3 Moroka Swallows vs Polokwane City: Swallows will be without coach Steve Komphela and several players, who have left following a dispute over wages in December and the club failing to play its last two scheduled fixtures of the month. Polokwane are two points ahead of Swallows in the table and in their last game held champions Sundowns to a creditable goalless draw away.

M4 Fulham vs Aston Villa: Villa’s last trip to Craven Cottage was a 3-0 loss, but the visit before that they won 3-0.

M5 Newcastle United vs Bournemout­h: Newcastle host Bournemout­h for only the seventh time with three wins, two losses and one draw.

M6 Nottingham Forest vs West Ham United: Forest’s last two games against West Ham have been a 1-0 win in the English Premier League last season and prior to that a 5-0 success in the FA Cup.

M7 Tottenham Hotspur vs Wolverhamp­ton Wanderers: Spurs lost 2-1away at Molineux in November when the side two sides last met. So they will be looking for revenge and some vital points in the race for Champions League places.

M8 Cape Town Spurs vs AmaZulu: Cape Town Spurs are still in deep trouble at the foot of the DStv Premiershi­p with only four points. AmaZulu moved into the top eight at the end of the year.

M9 Sekhukhune United vs Richards Bay: Sekhukhune will be looking to end a run of four matches without victory. Richards Bay’s last game before the break was a much-needed home win over SuperSport United, but they are still second from bottom in the DStv Premiershi­p.

M10 Mamelodi Sundowns vs Orlando Pirates: Sundowns have won the last seven PSL games between the two clubs, conceding only two goals in the process. But in their last clash Pirates beat Sundowns on penalties in the MTN8 final.
