Luis Suarez is never the most popular of footballers but few fans can hate him more than those of Norwich City who have seen the player score six times in the last two meetings between these sides. Suarez is 3/1 (Coral) to score first, 3/5 (BetVictor) to score anytime, 11/4 (general) to score two or more or 14/1 (Totesport/betfred/BetVictor) to score a hat-trick. Despite this record I think it may pay to swerve Suarez as Chris Hughton will surely detail a special method of watching the player so the same thing does not happen again. The bet here is to take Norwich with +1.75 on the Asian Handicap at 7/8 (pinnacle). The Canaries have lost just two of their away games this season by more than one goal those coming against Fulham on the opening day of the season and at Stamford Bridge. Expect Norwich to try keep it tight and with this bet paying out full wins if Norwich win, draw or lose by one goal and only being a half loss if the Canaries lose by two this looks the way to play this game.

Man City take on Fulham at the Etihad and will hope to put the pressure on United who do not play until Sunday. I can not see past the home victory as only United have won at City this season while Fulham have only won at West Brom and Wigan this season. Coral are going 2/7 on a home victory which is the best of a bad bunch of prices but none one that interests me. How to play this is unclear maybe try a bet on City in the winning margin market where you can get City to win by two goals at 16/5 (ladbrokes) and City to win by three or more at 7/4 (Skybet) as long as City win by more than one goal then this returns a profit.

Newcastle take on Reading in a vital relegation battle with the Magpies struggling having taken just one point from their last four games.. I could not be rushing to back them at 5/6 (ladbrokes/Coral). Reading are on something of a revivial though away from home they still are yet to convince. The best bet in this game then might be to see if you can find a bookmaker willing to offer you a bet on Mathieu Debuchy to be booked. The Frenchman defended very physically against Norwich last weekend and was caught of position a few times and he may collect the cards until he justs to the English game.

Swansea take on Stoke in a battle between two sides sitting comfortably in the top half of the table. It is the draw that interest me in this game.Stoke have drawn seven of their 12 away games this season while Swansea have drawn seven of their last 12 home games including their last three. Take the draw at 12/5 with bet365/Coral.

Both teams have scored in each of the last six West Ham games and at 4/5 (betfred/betway) this looks this bet in a difficult looking game against their London rivals QPR.

Wigan take on Sunderland in another game that is important at the bottom of the table. The best bet is taking NO in the both teams to score market at evens (general). Wigan are without top scorer Arouna Kone who has gone to the Africa Cup of Nations while they have failed to score in three of their last four league home games. Sunderland meanwhile have grabbed just ten goals away from home this season and three of them came in against ten-man Fulham.

BEST OF THE BETS

GOLD: Norwich +1.75 on the Asian Handicap v Liverpool, 7/8 (pinnacle)
SILVER: Swansea v Stoke to draw, 12/5 (bet365/Coral)
BRONZE: Both teams to score West Ham v QPR, 4/5 (betfred/betway)
