NOW SPARKY, SHOW PEP HOW IT’S DONE...

It’s an 11/1 sleepin’ beauty

-

NEW Southampto­n boss Mark Hughes must succeed where Eddie Howe, David Moyes and Pep Guardiola all failed - and find a way to score at Wigan (BBC1, 1.30pm).

After a welcome comfort break, ol’ Sparky’s back on the Merry-go-round of the Meh, fresh as a daisy.

Look, he’s unpacked his playbook and his bottle of Tums, ready for another crack at the great mystery, and while it’s hard to feel optimistic, God loves a trier.

Fun telly stakes only today, and Southampto­n’s Jack Stephens (right) ‘anytime’ fits the bill at a lumpy 18/1 (888sport) - he’s found his scoring boots in 2018, and is a classic awkward element when thrown ‘in the mixer’.

If he’s a non-runner, the DRAW (90min) at 12/5 is the 1X2 punt. NEVER mind needing a ‘20-goal a season’ man to get promoted Cardiff are going up without anyone even breaking into double figures.

The flipside for the bustling Bluebirds is they travel to Derby (12pm) bristling with serious ‘anytime’ threat, front to back.

Nibble Cardiff ‘sleeper’ big Sean Morrison (left) ‘anytime scorer’ at 11/1 (Paddy) and have Cardiff ‘draw no bet’ at Evens (Paddy) as your main bet.
