Feeling good about this weekend, I just have to take Liverpool to give Derby a hammering, early on in the season I though Derby would make it tough for teams to play but after seeing the way that they were outplayed at Tottenham, I think they will be on the receiving end of some serious beatings this year. Derby opened their season with an encouraging 2-2 draw against Portsmouth, however it's all gone wrong since then. Their performances seem to have taken a major turn for the worse, with confidence seeping out of the team with each defeat. Their defeat in the carling cup during the week to lowly Blackpool will have been a further blow and a trip to Anfield is the last thing they need right now.
Stevie G is a doubt and it’s likely that Benitez will rest him but with or without him they will be far to strong at home for Derby. Liverpool conceded just 7 goals at Anfield in the league last season, which indicates just how hard they are to break down. Given that fact and Derby’s ineffective front line its highly unlikely that Liverpool’s goal will be breached. Torres to make hay.
Liverpool – 2 goals and a Liverpool clean sheet are the recommendations.
Coventry v Preston
Coventry are on a high, They’ve scored eleven goals already this season; conceding just two. Dowie is manager of the month for August, they have 3 wins away already and all of the Coventry strikers have scored so far.
Preston have struggled since losing David Nugent, His importance to the club was never so evident as it has been in recent times. They have nothing to offer up front. Morale is at an all time low with reports of behind the scenes fighting and chairman Derek Shaw is on the way out of the club.
Ill stick with basic logic here, in form scoring team against a low confidence club lacking up front

Liverpool rout Derby 6 - 0 to land the first two bets.
Coventry come from 1 down to win 2 - 1. Lucky enough with this one but the clean sheet was gone after 15 minutes, still a decent profit overall though.
+ 6.7 points profit for the day
