24th May 2026
10:00 Ajla Tomljanovic vs Caty McNally
Caty McNally
Win Match
50 WIN
McNally is in decent form, winning 5 of her last 8 matches, all on clay. Her losses were to ?wi?tek and world No. 15 Kostyuk twice. Tomljanovi? is playing so poorly, with one win from her last 8 against the 872-ranked player. McNally holds a 3??"0 head-to-head record, and I suspect it will be 4 after today.
10:00 James Duckworth vs Gabriel Diallo
Over 39.50
Total Games
50 WIN
James Duckworth has never really looked at ease on a clay court, but this season he is looking fine. He holds an impressive 10-3 win/loss ratio, although to be fair that does include Challenger wins. Diallo has played just five clay matches this year, losing four of them. Although he is the stronger player, his form is iffy, so I expect Duckworth to start well, but Diallo to grind his way back into it, taking this over.
10:00 Miomir Kecmanovic vs Fabian Marozsan
Over 39.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Miomir Kecmanovic arrives in fine form after winning the recent clay event in Valencia. However, things are rarely straightforward for him at the French, with him often getting embroiled in long matches. Marozsan isn't in as good a form, but there doesn't look much between the pair, so I suspect this will be another long, tight encounter.
10:00 Pablo Llamas Ruiz vs Thiago Agustin Tirante
Over 39.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Two grinding clay players, which looks sure to be a tight match. Tirante has been in good form on the red stuff with an 11-6 win/loss ratio this year. Llamas Ruiz is shooting up the rankings with a 20-5 win/loss record on clay this year. He can certainly hold his own in this one.
11:00 Mumbai Indians vs Rajasthan Royals T20
Rajasthan Royals
Win Match
50 WIN
The bookies have it as a coin flip with both the same price. That's clearly nonsense. In terms of form, RR have clearly been the stronger side. In terms of motivation, RR can qualify with a win, whereas Mumbai Indians have nothing to play for. It's basically a case of the bookies once again pricing up Mumbai based on reputation and player quality despite how they've performed.
11:30 Kyrian Jacquet vs Marco Trungelliti
Over 39.50
Total Games
50 WIN
These two have never met, but I don't expect their first meeting to be straightforward for either. Marco Trungelliti was playing well in March, reaching the final in Marrakech where he found Jodar too strong. His form has dipped since then, losing his last four even though he has been competitive; he's struggled to close out matches. Kyrian Jacquet hasnt played a lot of Grand Slam matches but always gives it his all and should be competitive in this one.
12:00 Tomas Martin Etcheverry vs Nuno Borges
Nuno Borges
Win Match
50 WIN
Tomas Martín Etcheverry is a solid clay courter who will grind away all day. However, with the baking hot sun, conditions may be faster than expected, which isn't in his favour. Borges is the more aggressive player and will prefer the quicker conditions. He holds a 2-0 head-to-head lead over Etcheverry, both this year, including a straight-sets win in Barcelona on the clay. At 2.80 he looks a good outsider.
13:00 Quentin Halys vs Mattia Bellucci
Over 39.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Quentin Halys brings the more solid form, but this may not be straightforward for him. At last year's French Open he needed four sets (44 games) to see off Kecmanovi? and went five sets with Rune in his other completed match. I think this might be a long grind against Bellucci, who will enjoy the faster courts under the baking sun.
13:00 Titouan Droguet vs Jakub Mensik
Over 38.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Mensik is expected to blow away the Frenchman, but Droguet is a battler who is always competitive on the main tour. He serves well, moves well on clay, and looks a tricky opponent for Mensik.
13:30 Federico Cina vs Reilly Opelka
Federico Cina
Win Match
50 WIN
Opelka isn't at his best on clay and generally avoids it like the plague. He has completed just one match on it this year, which he lost in straight sets. Cina stormed up the rankings last year and has come through three qualifying rounds, so should be used to the conditions. The faster-than-normal courts are a worry, but I have to give Cina the edge.
14:00 Dublin v Kilkenny
Dublin
FT Result
50 WIN
Dublin have a wretched record against Kilkenny, but this looks a good opportunity for them. Kilkenny have been wildly inconsistent. They were hammered by Galway, and could only draw with Offaly, but then crushed Wexford, scoring five goals in the process. Their inconsistency makes them vulnerable to a solid Dublin side. Dublin attack well, and if they defend with discipline they can win this.
14:00 Roscommon v Tyrone
Tyrone
FT Result
50 WIN
Roscommon have already won the Connacht title, but this looks far from straightforward. Tyrone have had their fair share of injuries, but they are now virtually at full strength and are a well-organized, quality side who look capable of going to Roscommon and winning.
15:00 Joao Fonseca vs Luka Pavlovic
Luka Pavlovic
1st Set Winner
50 WIN
Joao Fonseca is nursing a wrist injury, and his form coming into this isn't great, losing his last three matches. Pavlovic is inexperienced at this level but will know the conditions, having come through three qualifying rounds. Fonseca won't know much about Pavlovic's style of play, and it wouldn't surprise me if Pavlovic surprised Fonseca in the first set.
15:00 Lorenzo Sonego vs Pierre Hugues Herbert
Pierre Hugues Herbert 3.50
Games Won
50 WIN
Herbert upset Bonzi in the first round last year in five sets, so he shouldn't be underestimated. The big-serving Frenchman should enjoy the faster courts today because of the sun-baked clay. Sonego is in wretched form this year and last, winning just two of his 10 matches, so an upset looks on the cards.
15:30 Warwickshire vs Somerset T20
Somerset
Win Match
50 WIN
Bears had a nightmare first game, being skittled out for just 74 when chasing a lowly 121. They now face champions Somerset, who looked just as impressive this season when winning their opener. Will Smeed never looks like posting a low total, and they bat deep with many bowlers capable of good knocks. They look a class outfit and should see off a Bears side that must be low on confidence.
16:00 Burnley v Wolverhampton
Under 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
The bottom two clash, and a Wolves win would see them leapfrog Burnley, relegating Burnley to last place. They are the two lowest-scoring sides in the league, with just 63 goals between them. Although there were five goals when they met earlier in the season, I see this being a tight affair, with neither side wanting to finish bottom.
16:00 Cork v Clare
Clare
FT Result
50 WIN
Clare looked all at sea when losing by 15 to Limerick. But they soon put that behind them with a dominant 11-point defeat of Tipperary. That's what they are capable of, and they look capable of beating a Cork side nursing key injuries.
16:00 Crystal Palace v Arsenal
Under 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Arsenal have won the league, so you could forgive them for being a bit flat in this one. Palace have the Conference League final against Rayo Vallecano in three days' time, so this surely won't be a priority. I think that equates to a rather tame, low-scoring affair.
16:00 Fulham v Newcastle
Newcastle -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Fulham look a side on the beach with just one point from their last three. Even that draw was against Wolves. Newcastle, by contrast, are ending the season well, beating both Brighton and West Ham 3-1 and drawing with Forest.
16:00 Man City v Aston Villa
Man City -1.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
It's job done for Villa with the Europa League in the bag and Champions League football guaranteed for next year. You could well forgive them for being on the beach. The title's gone for Man City, but this is Pep's last game, so City will be keen to send him off with a win. I can see City brushing Villa aside.
16:00 Sunderland v Chelsea
Sunderland 0.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Sunderland were impressive at home earlier in the season, being unbeaten in their first 12. They've lost their way of late, but a 3-1 win at Everton last time has given them a shout at making Europe. It would be a good achievement for a promoted club. Chelsea are currently in the Conference League spot and could even make the Europa League. However, prior to their win over Spurs last time, their form had been dreadful, with one point from their previous seven. I can see Sunderland getting at least a draw.
16:00 Tottenham v Everton
Tottenham -0.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Everton have a hugely impressive away record, but they are ending the season poorly, with no wins in six and 14 goals conceded in those games. There is nothing on the line for them other than that they could move up a couple of places. There is everything on the line for Spurs with their Premier League survival at stake. Their home form is awful, being the second worst in the league; however, with so much on the line I expect they will put that behind them.
19:45 Torino v Juventus
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Torino have a dreadful record against Juventus, but you can guarantee they will be up for this game against their city rivals. Torino have nothing to play for, but they would love to end Juventus' Champions League hopes, so will be eager to get something out of this Derby della Mole. Juventus simply must win to have any chance of making the Champions League, so they will surely be going for goals. I see this being a high-scoring end-to-end game.
21:00 Canadian Grand Prix
Kimi Antonelli
Win Race
50 WIN
Antonelli has had Russell's number so far, with him winning the last three Grands Prix. Russell narrowly edged him out in qualifying, but with them both sharing the front grid, Antonelli is more than capable of winning this.
Pierre Gasly - Yes
Points Finish
50 WIN
Gasly qualified a disappointing 14th with his teammate in 10th. He has been complaining about the setup, but hopefully the car is OK for the race. He has made the top 10 in all the races he finished. With rain forecast, it should shake things up, and he is very accomplished in such weather.
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.
19th July 2026
15:30 All Ireland Hurling Championship 2026
Clare
Win Hurling
25 EW
Clare won in 2024, but last year it didn't go well. Severe injury problems probably took their toll. They look in better shape this time and can certainly mix it with the best.
9th September 2026
11:00 County Championship Division 2 2026
Lancashire
Outright Winner
50 WIN
Lancashire underperformed, finishing 5th despite having a strong squad. They've really impressed with signings over the winter, enrolling quality players at this level, so I see them doing a lot better than 5th.
15th September 2026
11:00 County Championship Division 1 2026
Warwickshire
Outright Winner
25 EW
Warwickshire finished down in 5th last season but were hampered by drawing nine games, the most in the league. They've strengthened their squad and look capable of a better performance this season.
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.
