Liverpool value to get off to a flyer against poor Canaries defence

Bacary Sagna has been in my mind one of the best players in the Premier League this season and his absence on Tuesday night will be a blow as Arsenal take on Hull. The right-back has been excellent getting forward and at the back. I still think Arsenal will win though the absence of Sagna means I will not be getting involved at the 4/5 (BETVICTOR/paddy Power) on the Gunners to win to nil. Carl Jenkinson is more of a liability at the back and as such the price looks too short to be getting involved with.

The Tigers can take heart from their victory over Liverpool on Sunday in which they produced an excellent performance to see off the Reds 3-1. Steve Bruce has done a great job at Hull this season and they have already taken an impressive 17 points from their opening 13 games. Away from home though they tend to struggle with just one win from their six league away games this season and they have failed to find the net in three of these games. Hull are 16/1 (bet365) for the victory while the draw can be backed at 13/2 (bet365).

The best bet comes in the anytime scorer market where I like the look of Jack Wilshere at 9/2 (bet365). The Arsenal midfielder got two in his last home game and looks the pick of the prices amongst the Gunners forward facing quintet.

The Norwich City defence must be having nightmares about having to face Luis Saurez as the Uruguay star has a massive SEVEN goals from his last three games against the Canaries. Suarez is as short as 8/13 (WINNER) to score at anytime and 5/2 (SKYBET) to score two or more goals against a Canaries defence that has shipped 17 goals in their last four away games. Liverpool are 2/7 (GENERAL) for victory and 3/4 (BWIN) to win and for Suarez to score anytime. BETVICTOR and SPREADEX are going 4/5 Liverpool Half Time/Full Time.

It took Newcastle just two minutes to score past the Canaries last time on their travels while Man City were 3-0 up by 30 minutes time in their game at the Etihad. United and Arsenal also managed to find the net in the first 20 minutes of their home game with Norwich. The best bet then looks like the 11/10 (ladbrokes) that Liverpool are leading after 30 minutes

Roberto Martinez is really easy to like and the Everton fans have had no problems warming to him since he took over as boss. He can further cement a place in the hearts of the supporters if he can lead his Everton side to victory over old boss David Moyes. The Toffees are 9/2 (bet365/CORAL) for their first victory at Old Trafford since August 1992. Everton have lost just one league game this season and you can get 29/10 (boylesports/BETVICTOR) that this game ends all square.

United are 3/4 (BETVICTOR/william hill) for a much needed three points as they look to close the gap on the teams at the top. The Red Devils are now unbeaten in their last 12 in all competitions and have won each of their last four in front of their own fans. The bet for me comes in the anytime scorer market where I like the look of Romelu Lukaku to score at anytime at odds of 5/2 (TOTESPORT/betfred). The Everton front man netted a hat-trick against United last season, bagged two against Liverpool in a recent game and one against Stoke. I think he can use his pace and power to cause United problems here and I like him at odds of 5/2 (TOTESPORT/betfred)

BEST OF THE BETS

GOLD: Liverpool to be leading after 30 minutes against Norwich, 11/10 (ladbrokes)
SILVER: Romelu Lukaku to score anytime v Man Utd, 5/2 (TOTESPORT/betfred)
BRONZE: Jack Wilshere to score anytime v Hull, 9/2 (BET365)
