It could get very messy, Pep

-

THE bookies are dangling juicy prices for the teams currently first and second in the table. Leicester are 11-4 to win at Liverpool. It’s tempting.

Anfield is a fortress but this could be the moment when inju injuries and the virus finally catch up w with Jurgen Klopp’s patchedup up, weary squad. The Foxes will s sit back and counter-attack just l like they did at the Etihad. But we’d much rather take t the 16-5 for Tottenham to win a at home. That’s right, a Jose M Mourinho side playing on their ow own turf can be backed at more than 3/1. OK, so they’re playing Manchester City, but the 2020 version of Pep’s Guardiola side is clearly not the force of old.

Pep may have signed a new twoyear deal this week – and it could spark a move for Messi – but the signs are that City are in decline.

With Kane and Son working brilliantl­y in tandem, we’ ll take Spurs to seal the deal tonight.

Talking of great signings, Hakim Ziyech has got more magic in his left foot than Harry Potter.

He’s 8/1 with Hills to score outside the box for Chelsea at Newcastle today.
