Tip #1 - Atletico Madrid to win @ 1/41.25

Atletico Madrid v Mallorca 
Sunday 25 January  
Kick off: 14:00
LaLiga

Atletico Madrid have been near faultless at home in LaLiga this season, with nine wins from their 10 games at the Metropolitano. Diego Simeone's side have picked up more points than any other side at home in the Spanish top flight this term (28) and have only conceded seven goals across these games.

That defensive record is particularly notable as they take on a Mallorca side that have only won one of their 10 away matches in LaLiga this term, scoring just 10 goals across these games. Only three sides in the division have picked up fewer points on the road than Mallorca this term.

Mallorca sit 15th in LaLiga and are only two points above the drop zone. They've only managed to win one of their last five matches, with this victory coming at home against Athletic club last time out  - a win that was aided by their opponents being reduced to 10 men in the second-half.

I can't see Mallorca finding a way to break down this stubborn Atletico Madrid defence, which has kept eight clean sheets this season. It's also worth noting that Mallorca are overachieving their xG by a few goals, so their already weak record in front of goal is actually even worse than it appears on paper.


Tip #2 - Brentford to win @ 5/61.84

Brentford v Nottm Forest 
Sunday 25 January  
Kick off: 14:00
Premier League

Brentford and manager Keith Andrews have been a genuine surprise this campaign. Many expected them to struggle after losing their club captain, manager, and two biggest attacking threats in the same window. However, the club has adapted brilliantly.

The Bees' home form is central to their success, remaining unbeaten in 10 of their 11 matches at the Gtech Community Stadium this season - their only defeat came against Man City. This underscores just how difficult a trip to west London is for any Premier League side at the moment. Brentford have won seven of these games, with only Villa, City and Arsenal winning more games at home in the league.

Nottingham Forest, in contrast, appear nervy and uncertain. There seems to be a disconnect between the players and what manager Sean Dyche is asking of them. Their latest frustration was a 1-0 Europa League defeat away to Braga in midweek.

Forest have managed just one win in their last five matches - against a West Ham side who have been poor. With only three away wins in 11 Premier League attempts this season, it is difficult to see Forest becoming just the second side to triumph at Brentford's fortress.

Tip #3 - Rangers to win @ 1/51.20

Rangers v Dundee 
Sunday 25 January  
Kick off: 15:00
Scottish Premiership

Danny Rohl has made Rangers an organised and effective side, particularly when they are without the ball, which has resulted in Rohl avoiding defeat in 16 of his 21 matches in charge so far - maintaining a solid win percentage of 62%.

Rangers come into this clash with real momentum having won each of their last seven matches across all competitions, including a victory over Celtic. This run has moved Rangers to within six points of the league leaders, Hearts, and Rohl will feel as though that gap isn't insurmountable.

Rangers have lost just one of their 11 home games in the Scottish Premiership this season, though Rohl will want to turn a few of those draws (4) into victories to ensure that Rangers keep the pressure on Hearts and Celtic in the race for the title.

Dundee have managed to put together a decent run of form themselves over the last five matches, but it's hard to ignore their dire away record in the Scottish top flight this term. Only Livingston (4) have picked up fewer points on the road than Dundee (6) in the league this term, with Dundee losing seven of their 11 away games.

Rangers ran out 3-0 winners in the most recent meeting between the sides, and should be able to deal with Dundee, who are poor travellers. Dundee are also the lowest scorers away from home in the Scottish Premiership this season (5).


Tip #4 - Arsenal to win @ 8/151.53

Arsenal v Man Utd 
Sunday 25 January  
Kick off: 16:00
Premier League

Arsenal have been the Premier League's most complete side this season, presenting a formidable latest challenge in their quest to win the title for the first time under Mikel Arteta. The Gunners have claimed victory in nine of their 11 home league games this term, with their only points dropped coming against Man City and Liverpool.

They approach this match under some pressure, having failed to win in their last two Premier League outings against Nottingham Forest and Liverpool. A failure to score in either of those games will also be a minor concern for Arteta. However, they received a morale boost with a hard fought away victory against Inter in the Champions League during the week, their seventh consecutive win in the competition.

At the Emirates this campaign, Arsenal have comfortably dispatched the likes of Bayern Munich, Atletico Madrid, Tottenham and Aston Villa. The manner of those victories is perhaps what distinguishes them from their rivals this season.

Michael Carrick's set-up against Man City was spot on, but replicating that here will be a significant challenge against a side that has conceded just five goals at home all season - the best defensive record in the division.
