United can turn the screw on City

Manchester United defender Chris Smalling has urged his current club to see off his former employers Fulham to move ten points clear in the Premier League title race.

United are in action at teatime on Saturday, with closest challengers Manchester City at home to Liverpool nearly 24 hours later. That gives the Red Devils, 1/5 with bet365 to be champions, an opportunity to tighten their grip on the title, one which Smalling has urged his team-mates not to waste. He told the Manchester Evening News: "A week ago it could have been two points and now we're talking about ten points potentially. "To play before City will put pressure on them, just as they have been putting the pressure on us a couple of times. "If we can play our game and get the three points, we can sit back and watch them a bit more comfortably."
