7th January 2026
15:30 Durbans Super Giants vs Pretoria Capitals T20

Durbans Super Giants

Win Match

50 WIN

Both Rutherford and Esterhuizen made good knocks in the last game (47 & 52), but the rest of the side disappointed as they went down to Sunrisers. That's now 3 defeats from 4, and despite looking like a solid batting outfit on paper, that simply hasn't been the case. Super Giants lost an absolute thriller last time via a Super Over against Sunrisers, which showed just what they are capable of. Liam Livingstone and Sunil Narine can come in today, making them even stronger.
18:00 Bjerringbro FH W vs SonderjyskE W

Bjerringbro FH (W)

Money Line

50 WIN

Two struggling sides with 5 points each. With home advantage to Bjerringbro I'm surprised that they are 3.00 for this. Sønderjyske have a poor away record of W0 D1 L4. So the hosts look the bet.
18:00 Skuru IK W vs Onnereds HK W

Onnereds HK (W)

Money Line

50 WIN

Onnereds sit second with a record of W0 D1 L2 and are unbeaten in six coming into this. Skuru have lost five on the trot and have done little of late to suggest they can win this.
19:00 Scott Donaldson v Sunny Akani

Scott Donaldson

Win Match

50 WIN

Donaldson had a fine run at the UK Open, going through four rounds before losing to Ding in a last-frame decider in the quarter-finals. If bringing that level of form, he should be too strong for Akani, who has lost five of his last six.
19:30 Bournemouth v Tottenham

Cristian Romero

Player to be Booked

50 WIN

Cristian Romero hasn't been booked in his last two games. If he manages to avoid a card tonight, it will be his longest unbooked run of the season. I wouldn't bet on it though, as he is a card magnet with 9 from his 16 games.
19:30 Brentford v Sunderland

Draw

50 WIN

Brentford have an impressive home record of W6 D3 L1. Despite that, this looks a tricky game for them. Sunderland are a tough side to beat. They are unbeaten in five, with them drawing their last four. They are tough to break down, with just two goals conceded in that run, and only Arsenal and Man City have conceded fewer goals this season. I think this will be a low-scoring draw.
19:30 Crystal Palace v Aston Villa

Aston Villa

50 WIN

Villa have won 9 of their last 10, with only Arsenal managing to beat them. Palace at the moment don't look capable of getting anything out of this. Palace have a small squad and have had a very busy schedule with their European commitments, and I think it's catching up with them. They have around 10 players who can't play tonight due to injury or AFCON, so they look vulnerable right now.

Will Hughes

Player to be Booked

50 WIN

Hughes has picked up four yellows this season from 17 games, even though he played a bit part in some of them. Last season he averaged a card every three games, with 11 from 33. He should be busy against an in-form Villa side, so he'll do well to escape the ref's attention.
19:30 Everton v Wolverhampton

Wolverhampton

50 WIN

Everton are missing Ndiaye and Dewsbury-Hall, which was noticeable against Brentford; they did not look at their best. Wolves finally got their first win of the season when beating West Ham 3-0. It was a game they dominated, with West Ham failing to muster a single shot on target. To be fair, their performances haven't been too bad of late, losing just 2-1 to Arsenal and Liverpool and drawing at Man United. They should be buoyed by that and can upset a below full-strength Everton.

Mateus Mane

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

Mateus Mane has broken into Wolves' first team and had a cracker against West Ham, constantly looking dangerous and scoring the final goal. With Everton looking fragile at the back last time against Brentford, it wouldn't surprise me if he netted again.
19:30 Fulham v Chelsea

Draw

50 WIN

Managerless Chelsea got a thoroughly deserved draw at Man City at the weekend and have drawn three of their last four. Fulham are unbeaten in five and are currently playing some solid football. They look a tough side to beat, so this looks very drawish.
19:30 Man City v Brighton

Tijjani Reijnders

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

There are plenty of potential goal scorers in the City lineup, but Reijnders is looking the hottest right now with a goal in his last three games. Although Brighton have been a bit of a bogey team for City, they have conceded two in their last three away games. So there should be goals for Man City tonight.

Over 3.50

Total Cards

50 WIN

Man City pick up 1.7 cards per game, but that's a lot better than Brighton. Brighton are the most booked side in the league, picking up 45 yellows and an average of just under 2.5 per game. 3.5 looks a doable line.
19:45 Lazio v Fiorentina

Lazio #1-0

50 WIN

Fiorentina have improved at home but are still struggling on the road, with just 5 away goals from 9 games. Lazio have conceded just 7 at home, so I see them edging this 1-0.
20:15 Burnley v Man Utd

Man Utd

50 WIN

Darren Fletcher takes the reins, and although I don't envisage many personnel changes, I expect him to change the formation and probably play a 4-3-3. Against a weak Burnley side, this should see United to better effect. Burnley don't usually get thrashed at home, but United have enough attacking talent to win this.

Over 10.00

Total Corners

50 WIN

I expect United under Fletcher to utilise the wingers more in this game. I therefore see United racking up the corners in this one. Burnley concede nearly six corners per game, so Burnley shouldn't have to win many to take this over.
20:15 Newcastle v Leeds

Draw

50 WIN

Leeds are looking a lot stronger now and are unbeaten in seven despite playing some decent sides. However, they have been very drawish, with five of those seven ending all square. Newcastle are good at home with a W6 D2 L2 record, but they should find Leeds a tough nut to crack.

Over 10.00

Total Corners

50 WIN

Leeds games have been the lowest for corners this season, but they are trending significantly the other way. Their last four games have contained 14, 12, 11, and 10 corners. This has come about with a change in tactics, which has resulted in more corners. Newcastle are the top corner side in the league with an average of 11.1 per game. I therefore like the over tonight.
8th January 2026
06:00 Jay Vine vs Lucas Plapp

Lucas Plapp

Matchups

50 WIN

Realistically, this should be a straight fight between Plapp and Vine. Vine is the more consistent time trialist, but Plapp saves his best for this, winning it the last two years. That included an 8-second win over Vine last year.
08:15 Melbourne Stars vs Sydney Sixers T20

Sydney Sixers

Win Match

50 WIN

I think Stars have over-performed so far. They hit the ground running, winning their first four but subsequently lost their next two. They were quickly into their stride, whereas other teams have taken their time to get going. One of those sides is the Sixers, who lost three of their first four but have now won back-to-back games. Their bowling has begun to fire, they make good field-setting decisions, and generally field solidly. I think they are a team on the rise and can win this.
20:00 Provence v Grenoble

Provence

To Win

50 WIN

Provence suffered an upset defeat to Valence Romans in their first home game, but given that Valence Romans are going well this season it wasn't that bad a result. However, since then they have won all six home games. Grenoble have lost seven of their eight away, so I can see Provence winning by a figure approaching double figures.
10th January 2026
05:00 Brisbane Heat vs Sydney Thunder T20

Brisbane Heat

Win Match

50 WIN

Things seemed to be going well last time for Thunder against Strikers when getting the dangerous Short out for just 4. Getting him out cheaply has been the key to beating the Strikers. They restricted Strikers to 165, which looked short on that wicket. In chasing it down, Thunder's opening pair made 110, so the win looked in the bag. However, not for the first time they collapsed badly and lost. That's now 6 defeats from 7, and they simply aren't a side to trust. Heat alternate between wins and losses, and the reason for that is that they perform exceptionally well at home, winning all 3 games.
12:30 Stockport v Huddersfield

Yes

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

8 of Stockport’s 12 home games have resulted in both teams scoring, including their last 4. Huddersfield have the best BTTS away record, with 75% ending with both teams scoring. Yes, BTTS looks the preferred option.
15:00 Bradford v Rotherham

Bradford

50 WIN

Bradford are doing well in 3rd and have won their last four home games coming into this. Rotherham manager Matt Hamshaw is the latest manager to come under pressure after six straight losses. As much as they need a win, they simply aren't playing well enough to get anything out of this.
15:00 Chesterfield v Colchester

Yes

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

Two solid BTTS sides, with 2/3 of Chesterfield’s home games ending with both teams scoring, and Colchester having the identical away record. I think both will score.
15:00 Enfield Town v Tonbridge Angels

Over 2.50

Total Goals

50 WIN

Enfield have turned into a good overs side, with 10 of their last 11 going over, including their last six home games. Sixteen of Tonbridge's 25 games have gone over 2.5, so I liken the over option.
15:00 Livingston v Kilmarnock

Yes

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

Livingston sit bottom, but they usually score at home. As a result, 8 of their 9 home games have ended with both teams scoring. Kilmarnock have a 70% BTTS away record, so yes, looks the preferred option.
15:00 Worksop Town v Merthyr Town

Merthyr Town 0.00

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

Not much was expected of Merthyr this season, but they sit third and have realistic promotion hopes. They are in great form, with 11 wins and a draw from their last 13 games. Worksop did win away at Chester last time, but that says more about the erratic nature of Chester this season. Overall, Worksop have lost 12 of their 25 games and look opposable.
18th January 2026
14:00 Africa Cup of Nations 2025

Algeria

50 WIN

Algeria have a soft group, so they should have few problems reaching the knockout stages. They stormed through qualification, topping the group with ease, scoring 24 goals and conceding just 8 from their 10 games. In my opinion, this looks a fairly open tournament, so Algeria are in with a solid shout.
