The price is tight enough at 8/5 with Sky Bet for an away win so getting a bit braver and banking on Leeds to win by two or more goals at 5/1 is worth a small interest. Yet, there is enough of an argument here to take on the Toon at 8/13 for the win with Sky Bet, and invest in West Ham to avoid defeat at 5/4. If you look at the last 13 occasions when a non-big six side have made a cup final, only two of those teams managed to win their next league match (W2, D4, L7) and the team in question only scored 12 goals in those 13 encounters. It's a run of results that is a tad misleading as when assessing the performance data they deserved more from defeats at Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, Leicester and Tottenham. A win over Bournemouth and Michael Olise's last-minute wonder goal in the 1-1 draw with United have kept the focus off Patrick Vieira for the time being but it's hard to make a case for them at Old Trafford. Newcastle aren't usually a team to bet against as Eddie Howe has built a magnificently resolute and together group that have quality in key areas of the pitch. That can be seen through his fouls committed data in the last two fixtures: he made two vs Chelsea and four at Brighton in the FA Cup. This more direct approach of getting the ball into dangerous positions quicker does tend to get the crowd involved and when Goodison Park is on song, it's a tough place for the opposition to play. There is now a clear philosophy and method to the way Villa are structured with and without the ball - they are difficult to create big chances against and play with great intensity when tasked with breaking forward. Fulham are vulnerable through the centre of their defence and Havertz somehow failed to score from a 0.40 worth of an expected goals tally in the 2-1 defeat at Craven Cottage. That balance stems from the midfield duo of Douglas Luiz and Boubacar Kamara, who can do it all - from stellar defensive work to bursting through midfield to start counter attacks. The 5/1 on him scoring first and 11/1 to score twice are punts to keep in mind.

He crosses it in from the right and Gomez tries to clear but it only goes as far as Dawson. The midfielder has two efforts at goal but both are blocked from the determined Wolves defence.

The defender himself denied these claims, citing his loan move was purely to obtain more minutes on the pitch. With Manchester City's desperation for all three points here, alongside the metrics of both sides, and combined with the absence of Antonio Conte, City to take the win at around 8/11 is likely to be a solid option. Back on January 19, City hosted Spurs in a thriller which ended 4-2, thanks to a second half comeback that has become a trademark of the current champions. New signing Arnaut Danjuma completed the scoring with a debut goal to put the icing on a good day out for Antonio Conte. Guardiola opted to go strong, perhaps to set a marker for the season ahead, and his side passed the test with flying colours. As the second half of the season continues, Pep Guardiola can ill afford for his side to drop points with Arsenal possessing a five-point lead, as well as a game in hand on his Manchester City side.

The theory goes that the biggest deals of the football season have been done and the chaos of the transfer market can be put back in its box until summer.
[Leeds](https://theathletic.com/football/team/leeds-united/), meanwhile, are expected to continue their multi-year deal with SBOTOP. [Wolverhampton Wanderers](https://theathletic.com/football/team/wolverhampton-wanderers/) are also due to see shirt sponsorship agreements expire at the end of this season.

[Manchester United](https://theathletic.com/football/team/manchester-united/) are in the market for a shirt sponsor after it was announced in December that [the club and TeamViewer, the German software firm, had agreed to curtail a deal due to run until 2026](https://theathletic.com/4006335/2022/12/15/man-utd-teamviewer-sponsor/). It is in the bottom half of the Premier League where partnerships with gambling firms figure most prominently. Manchester United’s deal with TeamViewer — which replaced Chevrolet before the 2021-22 season — was worth more than Chelsea’s arrangement with 3, and there will be ambitions to see greater sums recouped with a new long-term partnership. But doing those deals at the same time places a hell of a strain on the commercial team.” The cornerstone of a healthy portfolio of sponsors are your major assets that you want locked in for the long-term at premium value. Those figures will be viewed through cynical eyes by the European football establishment, but the pressure is on to maximise their own income. The marketing world expects a backer with links to Saudi Arabia after the Public Investment Fund takeover transformed life at St James’ Park, creating an untapped source of revenue for a club that trailed its rivals by a distance under Mike Ashley. Etihad, the UAE-based airline, is expected to continue its long partnership as shirt sponsor if something more lucrative cannot be found, but the water is being tested by the Premier League champions. [Chelsea](https://theathletic.com/football/team/chelsea/), the biggest spenders in January, have neither a front-of-shirt nor a sleeve sponsor for next season.

Spurs' best performance of the season by a mile. And to overtake him is a huge moment for me." "We knew very well that in that game (at City) we lost our key - our capacity to suffer. "It is a great feeling. "The key was the capacity to suffer when City has the ball. "Tottenham has a fantastic team and squad and they punish you. "We are not in the position to think about being champions, just the next game, Aston Villa. We played good, started well and missed maybe the last pass, to shoot." I’ve got plenty of goals to come, I’m feeling good. Not sure I’ve done that yet but my friends and family were here so it was a special time to do it."

Both teams hope to snatch the coveted three points to start their February run. City is blessed to have no players spending time on the treatment table. On January 19, City fell behind 2-0 at halftime before putting in four goals in the second half. They secured the league double last season: Heung-Min Son’s goal opened the Spurs’ 2021-2022 season with a win, while the second matchup was a 3-2 victory, thanks to Harry Kane’s heroics where he squeaked a header in the 95th minute off of a Dejan Kulsevski cross. They got 36 points off of 11 wins and three draws in 21 games in the Prem. Harry Kane, who has 16 goals this season, hopes to deliver a tantalizing game, especially when he is set off to take the league’s leading goalscorer.

The last time City won away to Spurs in all competitions was back in 2018; since then, Spurs have won by an aggregate score of 6-0. Mahrez almost gets on the end of a fantastic move from City that went through everyone from Ederson to Haaland. There's the space for the striker... Anything other than that and Manchester United are going to be licking their lips at the idea of finding themselves in second place. A few quick switches of play end with a diagonal cross from Walker towards Grealish at the back post. Walker slides in Haaland, who opens the play to Grealish. The winger's cross is blocked by Emerson, who has been bright in attack and defence so far for Spurs. City have passed around the block well but seem unable to find the killer ball to Haaland who has been blocked out by a thousand men. Grealish and Mahrez over the ball. He slid in brilliantly and cleared away the danger. He shot into Ederson's hands and Højbjerg's resulting effort flew wide from the edge of the box. The red card for Cuti Romero was the only black mark on a great day for the London side, who will be without him for their trip to Leicester City.
