22nd March 2026
14:15 Aston Villa v West Ham
Draw
50 WIN
Two teams going in opposite directions, with Villa sliding, having just one point from their last four and West Ham on the verge of climbing out of the relegation zone. West Ham's last nine games read W4 D3 L2, and Villa have lost three on the trot. Despite the odds, I think West Ham are playing well enough to get something out of this.
Jarrod Bowen
Anytime Goalscorer
50 WIN
With Sammerville out, this removes an attacking threat from West Ham, making Bowen more likely to be a West Ham scorer. He has eight this season, and he recently scored two in the FA Cup tie against Villa. Against a Villa side that have started leaking goals, I like his chances.
Over 10.50
Total Corners
50 WIN
West Ham games are averaging 11.6 corners per game, and 11 of their 15 away games have gone over 10.5 corners. Villa are reliable corner winners, so I think 10.5 looks achievable.
14:15 Tottenham v Nottm Forest
Nottm Forest
50 WIN
Spurs got a late goal at Anfield to grab a draw, but they are still winless in 12. Their home form is particularly worrisome, with them having the worst home record in the league. Forest aren't the most reliable of sides, but they drew away at Man City last time and have won away at Liverpool and Brentford, so a trip to Spurs shouldn't daunt them.
Cristian Romero
Player to be Booked
50 WIN
Cristian Romero is a quality player for Spurs, but he does have a knack for picking up cards. He has 10 from his 21 games and was also booked midweek against Atlético Madrid.
15:00 Hull FC v Leeds Rhinos
Hull FC 14.50
Handicap (2-way)
50 WIN
Rhinos have looked an impressive side but haven't had any success playing at the opposition's grounds. They lost meekly 26-14 at Leigh and were beaten last week in the Challenge Cup at Wakefield 24-14. Hull don't look particularly weak; in their two home games they went down by a point to York and beat Bradford. I think they can keep this within 14.
15:00 Jelena Ostapenko vs Jasmine Paolini
Jelena Ostapenko
Win Match
50 WIN
I wouldn't back Ostapenko at odds on, as she is thoroughly unreliable and capable of losing to almost anyone. However, at odds against and in decent nick she is worth considering. Her only defeats in her last nine were a 2-1 loss to Pegula, Kalinskaya, and Mboko. Paolini isn't in the best of form, with losses to average players. Ostapenko has won both meetings with Paolini on a hard court, and I see her putting Paolini's serve under tremendous pressure.
15:00 Leicester Tigers v Bristol Bears
Leicester Tigers
To Win
50 WIN
Bristol Bears are missing several key players with Ellis Genge, Louis Rees-Zammit, and Tom Jordan all missing. That makes them vulnerable to a full-strength Leicester side. Even at full strength this would be tough, as Leicester have been dominant at home, winning all five games.
15:07 3:07 Sheffield
Carrick Fergie
Daily Races
50 WIN
Carrick Fergie has been a revelation when dropped to sprinting. Last time it was only third after bend one but powered through to win by four lengths. It has the speed to upset the favourite.
15:30 Mayo v Roscommon
Mayo -2.50
Handicap
50 WIN
Roscommon have done much better than expected this season and had a fine win over Donegal last time. However, it was a far from full-strength Donegal side who simply couldn't play into the wind. Mayo are a different beast at home and have beaten both Armagh and Dublin. I think they can win this by three-plus.
16:00 Firenze W vs Chieri W
Chieri W to win 3-1
Set Score
50 WIN
Chieri are clearly the stronger side and should win. But when this fixture was played in the regular season, Firenze won a set. They also won a set last season in this fixture. I therefore see 3-1 being a likely outcome.
16:15 Paris FC v Le Havre
Paris FC
50 WIN
Paris FC have brought in Antoine Kombouaré to steer them clear of relegation, and he has immediately shown his style with a 1-0 win, a 0-0 draw, and a 1-1 draw. Against fellow strugglers Le Havre, I expect a low-scoring game that Paris could edge. Le Havre have been hapless on the road with just six points and five goals, so I expect Paris to edge this about 1-0.
Paris FC #1-0
50 WIN
Paris FC's new manager Antoine Kombouaré has immediately tightened up their defence with a 1-0 win, a 0-0 draw, and a 1-1 draw. Strugglers Le Havre are poor travellers with just five goals, so I expect Paris to keep them out. I therefore see Paris edging this 1-0.
16:15 Rennes v Metz
Rennes -1.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Metz are bottom and realistically need to win this to have a chance of surviving, but I just don't see that happening. They did score three last week against Toulouse, but their defending was so poor. They have already conceded 37 away goals and face a good Rennes side. Rennes did lose to Lille last time, but before that won four on the trot, scoring 11 goals in the process. I think they will win this comfortably.
16:30 Arsenal v Man City
Draw
50 WIN
Carabao and FA Cup finals have tended to be dull, low-scoring affairs recently, and this may turn out to be another. When the sides met at Arsenal earlier in the season it ended 1-1, and a similar outcome wouldn't surprise in what could be a cagey affair.
17:06 5:06 Towcester
Bombay Nutty
Daily Races
50 WIN
Bombay Nutty was fast out of the trap last time and duly led them home in an impressive time. It thrives at Towcester and looks capable of following it up.
17:30 Elina Svitolina vs Hailey Baptiste
Elina Svitolina to win 2 - 1
Set Betting
50 WIN
Svitolina is in great form, notching up an impressive 20 wins already this year. She faces a tough opponent in Baptiste, though. Baptiste has won 9 of her last 14 matches and has taken sets off Gauff and Rybakina. I can see her grabbing a set but ultimately coming up short.
19:00 Elena Rybakina vs Marta Kostyuk
Elena Rybakina to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
Rybakina is in tremendous form. The Australian Open winner has continued her dominance, winning 6 of her last 7, with the only defeat being to Sabalena via a last-set tiebreak in the final at Indian Wells. She beat Kostyuk in straight sets in that event and can duplicate that.
22:45 Valspar Championship
Chandler Blanchet
25 EW
I must confess I knew little about Chandler Blanchet until the Puerto Rico Open last time. But he produced three stunning rounds of 64, 67, and 67. Unfortunately, he had a poor Saturday with a 74 round, which cost him the win by one stroke. It did, though, show his tremendous potential, and he looks likely to win an event sooner or later.
Ryo Hisatsune
25 EW
Hisatsune was a fine 4th here last year, with his 66 on Friday being the standout round. His form is looking solid coming into this, with three top-10s in his last six starts, including a 2nd place. Last time he came home 13th, but he came 1st for Greens in Regulation, which should stand him in good stead this weekend.
Taylor Moore
25 EW
The tournament didn't start until 2000, but it already has four repeat winners in the form of Sam Burns, K.J. Choi, Ernie Els, and Paul Casey. Those winners show it's a course that needs a certain style, and once mastered, pulling off a repeat is very doable. That makes Taylor Moore, the 2023 winner, of interest. He has highlighted his liking for this event, stating that it's a course where you can plot your way around methodically, and even on a poor day he's confident of posting a respectable total.
23rd March 2026
15:00 Felix Auger Aliassime vs Terence Atmane
Terence Atmane 3.50
Games Won
50 WIN
Felix Auger-Aliassime has a poor record here and just can't seem to get on with the conditions. He struggled past Fucsovics in the previous round, winning 7-6, 7-5, and was aided by Fucsovics gifting him far too many points. Atmane is quality on his day but does have barren spells. However, he impressed in beating Rinderknech in the last round, so is worth keeping on side when in form.
15:00 Quentin Halys vs Kamil Majchrzak
Kamil Majchrzak to win 2 - 1
Set Betting
50 WIN
Two closely matched players who are playing well, so it could be a long one. They stand at one-one in head-to-heads, with Halys winning the last one 2-1. What was remarkable about the game was that Majchrzak won 101 points compared to 85 from Halys. That surely can't happen again, so I think he edges it.
24th March 2026
02:00 Jupiter Links v Los Angeles
Los Angeles
50 WIN
Los Angeles have been far more impressive, hitting more fairways and have superior GIR stats. They will be without Fleetwood, which is a negative, but with too many Jupiter Links players struggling, they should still prevail.
27th May 2026
14:00 Indian Premier League 2026
Gujarat Titans
Outright Winner
25 EW
According to the bookies, Gujarat Titans are the second-worst side in the competition, but I don't see it. Jos Buttler is a concern after a poor T20 World Cup campaign, but he is too good a player to keep playing that badly. I see him enjoying the fresh start. Even if he underperforms, there are enough quality batters in the side to step up. I also like their mix of bowlers and can see them going deep.
Mumbai Indians
Outright Winner
50 WIN
Mumbai Indians look the strongest side on paper and should go well. They had the best net run rate last season but just missed out on the play-offs by one point. They have a wealth of batting talent to choose from, although perhaps they are over-reliant on Bumrah in the bowling department. That may not matter, as I see them posting consistently high scores.
14:00 Indian Premier League 2026 Mumbai Indians
JJ Bumrah
Top Team Bowler
50 WIN
I'm just not convinced by Boult at the moment and think Bumrah is a much more reliable option. You can guarantee he will play his full quota of overs each match and simply looks the best, most consistent wicket-taker.
6th December 2026
13:00 Formula 1 Drivers Championship 2026
Max Verstappen
50 WIN
Verstappen kept himself in the title race last season despite clearly not having the best car. That speaks volumes about his skill, which should see him once again go well this season. Despite him slamming the new regulation, it should be to his benefit as he has the skills to master the new designs. The Red Bull has looked very promising in practice, so I rate him as the most likely winner.
