17th April 2026
09:00 Canberra Raiders v Melbourne Storm
Canberra Raiders 1.50
Handicap (2-way)
50 WIN
Raiders haven't performed well this season but were a lot better last week when beating the Rabbitohs. Storm have lost four on the trot, which is uncharacteristic for them. Their defence has looked way off it, so they look vulnerable to an improving Raiders side.
15:00 Gujarat Titans vs Kolkata Knight Riders T20
Gujarat Titans
Win Match
50 WIN
KKR have been bitterly disappointing, with their only point coming as a result of a washout. They don't seem to know their best 11 and have been chopping and changing the order. Titans lost their first two but have come alive, winning the next two. Buttler has finally started playing like we know he can, and they seem to have a clear edge.
20:00 Blackburn v Coventry
Draw
50 WIN
Coventry have had two tame 0-0 draws in their last two, but it was enough to get them promoted. However, they would love to win the league, but they seem to have run out of gas, so winning this looks tricky. Blackburn are four points clear of the relegation places, which probably won't be enough. They are struggling for wins but have been picking up low-scoring draws. Their last three home games have been drawn, and that looks a likely outcome in this one.
18th April 2026
12:30 Barrow v Walsall
Barrow
50 WIN
Once again Walsall's campaign has petered out after a fine start. They seem to have thrown in the towel after a 4-0 thrashing at home to Colchester last time. Any hopes of making the play-offs are now gone, so you have to wonder what their motivation will be. There can be no questioning Barrow's motivation. They are occupying the last relegation spot, but a fine win over a good Oldham side last time has given them hope. A win could see them jump up three places, and they appear to be playing on the right side at the right time.
12:30 Bolton v Huddersfield
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Huddersfield's last six games have all ended with both sides scoring. Although Bolton are doing well in third, they do concede regularly at home, conceding in 10 of their last 12. Bolton at home have a 62% success rate, and Huddersfield have an identical away record.
12:30 Brentford v Fulham
Draw
50 WIN
Brentford have lost just one of their last nine, but on the flip side have won just one of their last seven. The reason is that they have been very drawish, drawing their last four games. The level of opposition seems irrelevant, as they've recently drawn with Wolves and Arsenal. Fulham are a capable enough side and look likely to get a point.
12:30 Portsmouth v Leicester
Portsmouth -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
After losing tamely to a not very strong Swansea side, Leicester now find themselves in serious relegation trouble and aren't playing well enough to climb out. Portsmouth have climbed out of the relegation zone with back-to-back wins. They weren't just any wins. They beat both Middlesbrough and Ipswich to nil ??" two of the sides fighting for an automatic promotion spot. A win in this one would guarantee that Leicester can't catch them, so Portsmouth should be fully motivated.
15:00 Clyde v Dumbarton
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
A respectable 2/3 of Clyde's games end with both sides scoring. However, that is still inferior to Dumbarton, who have had more games resulting in both teams scoring than any other side, with 76% ending that way. When this game was played earlier in the season it ended 3-1, and a similar result wouldn't surprise.
15:00 Fleetwood Town v Chesterfield
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Fleetwood were an exceptional both-to-score side at home, with 15 of their first 16 ending with both teams scoring. However, that fine record has regressed of late with three recent failures. I wouldn't give up on them, as last time they lost 2-5 at home. Chesterfield on the road are a solid BTTS side with a 62% success rate. So overs look the preferred option.
15:00 Morecambe v Boreham Wood
Boreham Wood & Yes
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
Morecambe are relegated, but it's nothing to do with their recent goal-scoring exploits. In their last 12 games they have scored: 4, 4, 0, 3, 5, 1, 2, 2, 0, 4, 2 and 1 goals. Boreham Wood are a free-scoring side who still have a chance of making the play-off semi-final. However, they must win this, and they are certainly playing well enough to do so.
15:00 Newcastle v Bournemouth
Draw
50 WIN
Bournemouth have drawn a league-high 15 games this season, including 11 of their last 18 and 5 of their last 6. Newcastle are the favourites for this with 7 defeats from their last 10. I see this being close, so the draw once again appeals in a Bournemouth game.
15:00 Notts County v Barnet
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Barnet have an outside chance of making the play-offs after a fine run of 4 wins and a draw from their last 5. The games have been full of goals, with 4 of the 5 going over, with the results being 3-2, 3-1, 5-2 and a 2-2 draw. Eight of County's last nine games have also gone over, so I'm expecting goals in this one.
15:00 Preston v West Brom
Draw
50 WIN
It's the time of the season where bookies start pricing up struggling teams awfully short because they need the points. West Brom are an example of this, going off at 2.1 away from home despite having just 2 wins from their last 16. They are also playing a Preston side that are unbeaten in 4. West Brom have been picking up plenty of draws though, with 9 from their last 14. I therefore like the look of the draw.
15:00 Reading v Cardiff
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Reading have scored in every home game except the very first one of the season. They welcome second-placed Cardiff, but seeing as they scored against leaders Lincoln last time, that shouldn't faze them. However, they don't keep that many clean sheets, with two-thirds of their home games ending with both sides scoring. Cardiff have scored in their last 15 away games, so yes, looks the option.
15:00 Ross County v Ayr
Ayr 0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
It's been quite remarkable just how many times Ross have started as favourites this season. Despite going off as favourites in most games, they have won just six. It's therefore been profitable to oppose them on the Asian this season. Ayr have drawn all three games against Ross this season, and a draw tonight would yield a profit.
15:00 Sutton Utd v Altrincham
Altrincham 0.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Neither side has anything to play for, so seeing Sutton at evens to win, given their recent home form, is a touch surprising. They have lost their last four home games, leaking 13 goals in the process. Altrincham just need a draw for the bet to land. Altrincham at least come into this having won their last game and beat Sutton earlier in the season.
17:30 Tottenham v Brighton
Brighton
50 WIN
Spurs desperately need the points, but they have shown little to suggest they will get them. They look short of quality and have the worst home record in the league. Brighton are in fine form, winning five of their last six, with their one loss being to Arsenal. They are looking the much stronger side and are just two points off a European spot, so have everything to play for.
19th April 2026
20:50 RBC Heritage
Matt Wallace
25 EW
Matt Wallace was impressive at the Texas Open last time, finishing T2. That failed to qualify him for the Masters, though, so he will be chomping at the bit to get back on a course to continue his fine form. This course really ought to suit him with its tricky greens to hit. His pitching and scrambling look top-notch right now, so he can outperform his odds.
22:45 RBC Heritage
Patrick Cantlay
25 EW
It's hard to ignore Cantlay's record here. In his 8 visits he has a second, four times finished 3rd, a 7th, a 13th and just one missed cut. His form is decent coming into this with a 7th at the Valspar and T12 last week at the Masters. At the Masters he had an awful 77 in round one, and even if he had just gone round in par on day 1 he would have finished T3. On a course that suits him this weekend, I'm not expecting a poor Round 1 putting him well in contention.
Sahith Theegala
1st Round Leader
25 EW
Theegala has a good fit for this course. He is an accurate striker of the ball and is very adept at scrambling, which is a big plus on these hard-to-hit greens. He was a fine 5th in 2023 and improved on that the following year, finishing second to Scheffler. He's been solid recently with four top-10 finishes from his last nine events. So he looks a lively outsider.
10th May 2026
14:00 Pakistan Super League 2026
Lahore Qalandars
Outright Winner
25 EW
It's a chaotic PSL this season with no crowds, just two venues, and substandard players due to them bizarrely scheduling it against the IPL. Qalandars won last season and have won three of the last four. They retain a strong squad. They possibly have the best selection of bowlers, and although the batting could be said to be a bit too heavy, there is quality there. I expect a strong performance from them.
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.
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.
