25th May 2026
10:00 Jasmine Paolini vs Dayana Yastremska
Over 21.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Paolini is struggling in form at the moment. She has lost three of her five clay matches and just can't seem to win back-to-back matches. Yastremska, by contrast, has found some good form by dropping to and winning a challenger tournament last time in Parma. It was a decent standard event and Yastremska went through dropping just one set. I see her being very competitive in this one.
10:00 Luca Van Assche vs Patrick Kypson
Patrick Kypson
Win Match
50 WIN
Luca Van Assche probably has the better clay game, but he isn't in good form, losing five on the trot. These sun-baked clay courts are faster than usual, making Kypson of interest. He can serve and hit big and can take advantage of Van Assche's struggles.
10:00 Marton Fucsovics vs Matteo Berrettini
Marton Fucsovics
Win Match
50 WIN
I'm not at all tempted by Berrettini at 1.5. He just doesn't look at the races at the moment and has been played off court too many times. His fitness levels don't look great, so if this turns into a grind I'd oppose him. Fucsovics is struggling for wins, losing all three clay games this season. However, he usually ups his game for Grand Slams and is a solid clay player on his day. I think he out-grinds Berrettini.
11:30 Petra Marcinko vs Eva Lys
Petra Marcinko
Win Match
50 WIN
Petra Marcinko had a fine 2025, reaching five finals and winning four of them. She had a quiet start to 2026 but came good last time, winning the championship in Rabat. Lys has had a torrid time this year, losing eight of her 11 matches. If rediscovering her form she will be dangerous, but a recent knee injury means she may well struggle.
12:00 Elina Svitolina vs Anna Bondar
Anna Bondar 5.50
Games Won
50 WIN
The pair have met once before at the French last year, with Svitolina winning 7-6, 7-5, which would be absolutely fine for this bet. Bondar has won the last two meetings, including in April this year when winning in straight sets on the clay in Madrid. She is a capable player who can hang in there.
12:00 Maya Joint vs Anastasia Potapova
Anastasia Potapova to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
Anastasia Potapova is enjoying a fine year on the clay, holding a 14-4 win/loss record. She plays an opponent, Joint, who has completely lost her way, losing her last nine matches. There's always a danger she rediscovers her best form, but there's little evidence of that happening.
13:00 Emilio Nava vs Camilo Ugo Carabelli
Over 37.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Nava had an impressive 45??"19 win/loss record on clay last year and has done well on the surface of late, winning 7 of his last 9 matches. Camilo Ugo Carabelli is also a good clay player who regularly seems to get involved in long grinds. I really couldn't pick a winner, but it does look like a tight tussle that could go long.
13:00 Ugo Humbert vs Adrian Mannarino
Over 32.50
Total Games
50 WIN
I love watching Mannarino play with his extraordinary unorthodox game. However, clay simply isn't his surface. There were more positive signs last time against Collington. After losing the first set 6-3, he battled hard in set two, leading 5-2 before succumbing in a tiebreak. That is encouraging, as is the fact the courts are playing fast, which should enable him to play his usual game. Humbert himself isn't a natural clay player, so I see this going over.
15:00 Flavio Cobolli vs Andrea Pellegrino
Over 36.50
Total Games
50 WIN
Cobolli has put in some fine performances this year but mixed in with some poor efforts, so you never know what you'll get from him. Unless he's at his best he will struggle to brush Pellegrino away. Pellegrino has been in fine form this year, having won 8 of his last 9, all on clay. Even the defeat was to Sinner. He brings fine clay form and should be competitive.
15:00 Raphael Collignon vs Aleksandar Vukic
Aleksandar Vukic 7.50
Games Won
50 WIN
Collignon is obviously playing better, but his odds of 1.08 look very skinny. Vukic may not be in the best form, but he plays well from the back of the court and serves well. I don't see him rolling over, so I'm tempted by the 7.5 start.
19:15 Hugo Gaston vs Gael Monfils
Over 38.50
Total Games
50 WIN
An all-French affair in Monfils' final French Open, and I see it being far from straightforward for either. You can guarantee that Monfils will be giving it his all, but Gaston has fine touch and will happily work his opponent around to create opportunities. He has a clear fitness edge and should take this to 4 or 5 sets.
26th May 2026
10:00 Felix Auger Aliassime vs Daniel Altmaier
Daniel Altmaier
Win Match
50 WIN
Felix Auger-Aliassime has lost in the first round of the French in four of his previous six appearances. His general Grand Slam performances are worse than expected, and he's already gone out in round 1 of the Australian this year. Daniel Altmaier seems to raise his level in slams and often gives a good account of himself against higher-ranked players. I think he can trouble Felix Auger-Aliassime, who isn't playing well and has too often suffered from cramping during matches.
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.
