Weekend Multiple: Back Swans to earn a draw

Garry Monk’s side are unbeaten in three

"The Swans have an excellent record against Manchester United, having won three of their last four meetings and did the double over Louis van Gaal’s side last season."

Andrew Hughes thinks Swansea can match Manchester United at the Liberty Stadium on Sunday and help to land another weekend multiple.

Bet 1: Back Swansea to draw with Manchester United at 3.412/5

Swansea have made a solid start to their Premier League campaign, having gone unbeaten in three matches and they can make it four on Sunday. The Swans have an excellent record against Manchester United, having won three of their last four meetings and did the double over Louis van Gaal's side last season.

United are looking better this time round, mainly thanks to their defence, which has allowed only five shots on target this season. Their problem is at the other end. They've failed to score in three of their last five away games in the Premier League and only scored more than one goal once in their last nine. As Dan Fitch points out in his match preview, this promises to be a close game and Swansea look good value for a point.

Bet 2: Back Castres to beat Toulon at 1.4740/85

These two sides featured in the Top 14 final of 2013 and 2014 but had contrasting experiences last season as Toulon finished top of the league and lifted the European Cup while Castres narrowly avoided relegation.

Both kicked off last week with defeats. Toulon could take few positives from a home defeat to Racing, but Castres played well at Bordeaux and seemed happy with a losing bonus point, kicking the ball out on 80 minutes when trailing by just three. It's worth noting that despite their poor campaign last season, Castres won ten out of thirteen games at the Stade Pierre-Antoine, including this corresponding fixture, and they can be backed to edge out the European Champions.

Bet 3: Back Chicago Cubs to beat LA Dodgers at 1.910/11

Chicago Cubs lost in LA on Friday and go into this game on the back of a three match losing streak, but they can turn that around with victory over the Dodgers.

They've come up against some of the MLB's best pitchers in their three defeats, but will have some relative respite in this match as Los Angeles turn to Matt Latos, who has good record against the Cubs but isn't in the same class as Clayton Kershaw, the man who led the Dodgers to Friday's 4-1 victory. The Cubs have a pretty good record on the road and can edge this one.
