5th July 2025
10:00 Sri Lanka vs Bangladesh 2nd ODI
Sri Lanka
Win Match
50 WIN
Bangladesh made good inroads into Sri Lanka's top order in the first ODI, but that was as good as it got. Sri Lanka settled in and won the opener rather comfortably. Sri Lanka are a level above Bangladesh and should win this rather easily.
12:30 Brandon Nakashima vs Lorenzo Sonego
Lorenzo Sonego
Win Match
50 WIN
Brandon Nakashima is a solid grass player with a good service game. Sonego, though, always raises his game for the majors and took out the tricky Basilashvili yesterday. He really impressed in that game, showing great accuracy with his shots. This looks sure to be tight, so at 2.75, Sonego looks the value.
13:30 Alex De Minaur vs August Holmgren
Alex De Minaur to win 3 - 1
Set Betting
50 WIN
Alex De Minaur is by far the better player and is one of the best returners in the game, so I see him winning this. He did, however, drop a set against Cazaux and could do the same today. Holmgren has a massive serve and hit 35 aces against Machac in his last game. He goes for winners, which may enable him to grab a set.
13:30 Marin Cilic vs Jaume Munar
Over 40.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Cilic has a huge serve, and his flat hitting makes him a tough guy to break. Munar, though, is playing good grass tennis and has shown great quality throughout. He will make this a fight, so I see this going long.
15:00 Lancashire vs Derbyshire T20
Lancashire
Win Match
50 WIN
Derbyshire are bottom but did win two on the trot before the break when beating Leicestershire and Notts. They came back down to earth with a bump though when thumped 243-163 by Lancashire in their last game. Lancashire won again yesterday and simply look the stronger side with bat and ball.
15:00 Viking FK v Stromsgodset
Viking FK
50 WIN
Viking are already 7 points clear at the top and are unbeaten at home with 5 wins and two draws. They have scored 21 and conceded 8. Stromsgodset have lost their last 6, conceding 17 and scoring just 3. I don't see them troubling the hosts.
15:30 Iga Swiatek vs Danielle Collins
Danielle Collins to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
Danielle Collins won 2-0 when the pair met on the clay in Rome in May. She won 6-1, 7-5 and dominated the match. I've never really been impressed with Swiatek on the grass. Her skill enables her to blow away lesser players, but she looks vulnerable to the better players. Collins can be erratic but has an excellent A game. Things can happen too quickly for Swiatek on grass, and you can guarantee that Collins will rush her and take her out of her stride. She seems to dislike Swiatek, so will be highly motivated to win this.
16:00 Ben Shelton vs Marton Fucsovics
Over 40.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Ben Shelton is showing again that he can raise his game when Wimbledon comes around. He has an impressive serve and is tough to break. He is a little one-dimensional though, so he may struggle to blow Fucsovics away. Fucsovics has a great grass game and has shown great grit to come through two 5-setters. I see him hanging in there and taking this over.
16:30 Hammarby v IFK Varnamo
Hammarby
50 WIN
Varnamo are bottom with just 4 points and 1 point on the road. From their 13 games, they have managed just 11 goals. Hammarby sit 2nd and have the best home record with 6 wins, 1 draw, and one loss. They have only let in 5 goals at home, so I see them shutting out Varnamo. I think they do enough for the win.
Hammarby #2-0
50 WIN
Bottom side Varnamo have just 11 goals and 4 on the road, so I don't see them offering much of a goal threat to the hosts. Hammarby have the best home record with just 5 goals let in at home. I don't see Varnamo scoring, but they don't leak goals, averaging just under 2 per game, so 2-0 looks about right.
17:00 Cork v Dublin
Dublin 7.50
Handicap
50 WIN
Both are in great form and both had good recent wins over Limerick. Cork are probably the stronger side, but Dublin showed with their 2-point win over Limerick that they are a battling side and look up to keeping this close.
17:00 Wales Women v Netherlands Women
Vivianne Miedema
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
Vivianne Miedema was out for two months with a thigh injury. However, she played 62 minutes in the Netherlands' 2-1 friendly win over Finland. She scored both goals and should relish the chance to score against this fragile Wales defense.
17:30 Wakefield v Catalan Dragons
Wakefield
To Win
50 WIN
Catalan Dragons have always struggled away from France, and this season is no exception as they have lost 5 of their 7 away games. Their two wins came against struggling sides Castleford and Huddersfield. Wakefield have won 4 of their last 5 home games, including a win last time over Wigan. Admittedly, Catalan have a fine record against Wakefield, but this looks a good opportunity for Wakefield to address that somewhat.
18:00 Georgia v Ireland
Georgia 14.50
Handicap
50 WIN
It's nowhere near a strong Ireland side with many players missing as they are playing in the British & Irish Lions side. Georgia are establishing themselves as a solid team and will want to keep pushing for a place in the 6 Nations. They will relish this opportunity against a weakened Ireland side and can keep this close.
19:00 Sussex vs Hampshire T20
Sussex
Win Match
50 WIN
Hampshire have brought in Chris Lynn and Hilton Cartwright, which should significantly strengthen their side. Sussex, though, are a strong side, winning 5 of their 7 games. They easily dispatched Kent yesterday, so despite Hampshire's signings, I favour the hosts.
19:30 Whiptail Smashers vs Calabash Giants T10
Calabash Giants
Win Match
50 WIN
Calabash Giants have at last found some form, beating Piton Strikers with a fine batting performance. Last time, they came back from the dead to beat Itonala Heritage with some brilliant death bowling. Whiptail Smashers aren't a side I can trust. They posted an impressive 137 against Bamboo Blasters but generally struggle for runs, with their totals usually being in the 91-110 range. I think an improving Giants side do enough.
20:00 France Women v England Women
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Two sides full of goals, so I doubt this will be a low-scoring event. An example of England's scoring power was seen with a recent 7-0 win over Jamaica, a 6-0 win over Portugal, and a 5-0 win over Belgium. France also beat Belgium 5-0, had a 4-0 win over Switzerland, and a 3-2 win against Brazil. With the attacking talent on show, I see goals from both sides.
20:40 Argentina v England
Over 54.50
Total Points
50 WIN
Argentina play an attacking style of rugby which has seen them pick up wins over the Lions, New Zealand, South Africa, France, and Australia. Against a weakened England side, I see them scoring plenty of tries today. England, though, love to attack these days and can't be discounted. I see them adding to the total, taking this over.
6th July 2025
21:10 John Deere Classic
Michael Thorbjornsen
1st Round Leader
25 EW
Michael Thorbjornsen was 2nd last year and could go one better this time. This short, wide course is ideal for his game, and he comes here after a fine 4th last time at Rocket Classic. I see him going really well.
Sami Valimaki
1st Round Leader
25 EW
Sami Valimaki is not the most consistent of players as he is capable of highs and lows. His highs are pretty impressive though, as he can regularly shoot well under par, as shown by his 61 in a round 1 here last year. He's obviously fine with this course and is well worth a punt as the first round leader.

23:00 Flamengo v Sao Paulo
Flamengo
50 WIN
Flamengo top the league and are unbeaten at home, winning 4 of their 6 games. What's even more impressive is the 17 goals scored and just one conceded. Sao Paulo have just 9 goals from 11 games. I don't see them breaking down this Flamengo defense, so even one goal may well be enough.
23:00 Juventude v Sport Recife
Under 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Juventude have managed just 8 goals in 11 games so far. However, that's still better than Sport Recife, who have managed just 5 goals all season. I don't see many goals in this one.
27th July 2025
12:10 Tour de France 2025 King of the Mountains
Kevin Vauquelin
Win Outright
25 EW
Kevin Vauquelin is easily Arkéa - B&B Hotels' best rider, and I really hope as team leader that he doesn't attempt to get a high GC placing. He has a real talent for stages and one-day races, and if aiming for it, should be a serious contender for King of the Mountains. He climbs well and isn't afraid to launch attacks, so he should have a good chance if prioritizing it.
12:10 Tour de France 2025 Points Classification
Jonathan Milan
Win Outright
50 WIN
Jonathan Milan is probably the best sprinter in the field, and he brings a talented lead-out with him. He is versatile and can cope with most terrain, so he will be picking up tons of points.
15:30 All Ireland Football Championship 2025
Galway
Win Football
50 WIN
Galway have stacks of quality and haven't even played their best side in several games this season. As much as they would love to win the Connacht Football Championship, and I suspect they will, I think winning the 2025 All-Ireland Championship will be their clear objective this season. They have the personnel to do so and look a generous price at 6.5.
2nd November 2025
20:00 2025 NASCAR Cup Series Championship
Ryan Blaney
50 WIN
Ryan Blaney is in great form coming into this race with a second at Homestead, the win at Martinsville, and 2nd at Phoenix. This track should suit him, and although he isn't ideally placed on the grid, he has the speed to come through and win this.
