There is a full midweek Premier League programme to enjoy with matches taking place across Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and they are all available to watch on TNT Sports.
Leaders Liverpool will be among the teams in action on Tuesday as they travel to the City Ground to take on third-placed Nottingham Forest, who are just six points behind Arne Slot’s side.
Wednesday’s standout fixture is the north London derby between Arsenal and Tottenham at the Emirates Stadium. The Gunners will be aiming to put their recent cup disappointments behind them when they entertain their near neighbours, who currently sit in the bottom half of the standings.

Tip 1: Manchester City to beat Brentford @ 3/5
While it would be wrong to go all out and say Manchester City are back to their best, three wins and 14 goals scored across their last three matches in all competitions does suggest that Pep Guardiola’s side are slowly but surely turning a corner.
The Citizens will expect to make it four wins on the bounce when they visit a Brentford side that have lost five of their last seven across all competitions, including a shock home defeat to Championship strugglers Plymouth in the FA Cup last time out.
That was a third home loss in a row for Thomas Frank’s side and they could feel the wrath of an improving City, who are aiming to work their way back into top-four contention at the very least.

Tip 2: Ipswich vs Brighton – Liam Delap to score any time @ 23/20
If Ipswich are to stand any chance of surviving in the Premier League then they will likely need Liam Delap to maintain his current form, with the forward having netted eight of their 20 league goals this season, including striking in back-to-back top-flight games against Chelsea and Fulham.
Delap could easily score for the third successive game when his side entertain Brighton on Thursday and he should be fresh after being an unused substitute in Sunday’s FA Cup win over Bristol Rovers.
Brighton are without a win in eight league games and have kept just one clean sheet in 12 in the top flight. Fabian Hurzeler’s side are certainly not watertight at the back and Delap can exploit any weaknesses at Portman Road.
Tip 3: Newcastle vs Wolves – Joao Gomes and Joelinton to be carded @ 10/1
It is not always easy to pick multiple players to be carded in the same match, but in what could prove to be a spiky game between Newcastle and Wolves at St James’ Park, home team ace Joelinton and visiting midfielder Joao Gomes may offer good value to both be cautioned.
Joelinton has been booked seven times this season – only Leicester’s Boubakary Soumare has received more – and three of those cautions have come across his last four top-flight appearances.
The Brazilian is certainly a player that tends to walk a disciplinary tightrope, but so is his compatriot Joao Gomes, who has six yellows to his name and has committed more fouls than anyone else in the division (45) – incidentally Joelinton is third on that list with 40.
