21st February 2026
06:00 Western Australia vs Victoria One Day Match
Western Australia
Win Match
50 WIN
Western Australia put in their best performance of the competition so far in beating unbeaten leaders Tasmania last time, making it two wins on the trot. Victoria have won two of their last three, but overall they haven't been great, with some indifferent batting and fielding. I give the edge to improving Western Australia.
08:15 Australia W vs India W 3rd T20 Match
India W
Win Match
50 WIN
I don't think this is as one-sided as the odds suggest. India won the first match via D/L, chasing down 133 with ease. Their batters disappointed last time, but this looks like a good batting wicket, which should give India a good chance.
12:30 Fleetwood Town v Barrow
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
The best BTTS home side plays the best BTTS away side. Only one of Fleetwood's 15 home games has failed to end with both teams scoring, and only 4 of Barrow's away games have failed to do so.
12:30 Hull v QPR
Hull 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Hull lost last time 2-3 to an inspired Bristol City, but that was their only loss in their last 12. QPR have just two wins from their last 10, and one of them was against hapless Sheffield Wednesday. Their home 1-3 loss to struggling Blackburn midweek was particularly alarming. I like the hosts.
13:00 Alanyaspor v Istanbul Basaksehir
Eldor Shomurodov
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
Basaksehir have been quick out of the blocks of late, scoring the first goal in their last eight games. So I like them to get the first goal in this one. In terms of the first scorer, Shomurodov looks the most likely. He is in good form, banging in 15 this season.
15:00 Aldershot v Scunthorpe
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
There are usually plenty of goals in Aldershot home games, with 12 of the 14 going over, with an average of 4 goals per game. Ten of Scunthorpe's 16 home games have gone over, so I like the over.
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Scunthorpe are the best away side for BTTS with all but two ending that way. Aldershot are the best BTTS home side with all but two of their games ending that way. Yes, therefore looks the favourable option.
15:00 Bedford Town v Chorley
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Chorley were 50/50 on overs and unders on the road until recently. However, 3-3, 3-2 and 2-2 results have swung it firmly in favor of the overs. Bedford games have gone over 73% of the time, so I like the over.
15:00 Boreham Wood v Forest Green
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Boreham Wood have scored in every single home game except their very first game of the season, so I think they will score. However, they frequently concede, with both teams scoring in 10 of their 16 games. Despite just one point from their last five away games, Forest Green have been scoring fine, with just four away games in which they didn't score.
15:00 Boston Utd v Tamworth
Boston Utd
50 WIN
Boston won the away game at Tamworth 3-1 and look in a position to do so again. They have won four on the trot, including wins over fourth-placed Boreham Wood and a 6-3 thrashing of fifth-placed Scunthorpe last time. Tamworth are winless in five, but to be fair they have drawn four of them. However, getting something out of in-form Boston looks a tall order.
15:00 Brackley v Southend
Brackley 0.75
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Southend are playing well at home with 4 wins on the trot. However, their away form isn't as strong, with no wins in 4 and just one from their last 7. Brackley are unbeaten in 7 and look the bet with a 0.75 start.
15:00 Carlisle v Yeovil
Carlisle
50 WIN
Yeovil have improved a bit, Billy Rowley, but they still aren't looking too strong. Carlisle have an impressive W11 D3 L3 home record and are pushing for promotion, so should be too strong.
15:00 Cheltenham v Salford City
Cheltenham
50 WIN
Cheltenham took a major step forward when drawing away at leaders Bromley midweek, making it two draws on the trot. They were good value for their draw and, on another day, could have won. Salford have been up and down all season and look in a down mood at the moment, losing 3 of their last 4. I like the upset in this one.
15:00 Clyde v Edinburgh City
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Don't be misled by Edinburgh City sitting bottom. If it hadn't been for their 15-point deduction, they would be sitting 4th. To be fair, they have failed to score in their last two games, but those were against the top two, East Kilbride and Spartans. Prior to that, they had scored in all their league games. On the flip side, the opposition nearly always score, with 20 of their 24 ending with both teams scoring. Yes, looks the bet.
15:00 Colchester v Barnet
Draw
50 WIN
Virtually all of Colchester's last 10 games have been close affairs, with only one game being settled by more than one goal. Another close game looks on the cards. Ten of their games have ended in draws, a figure bettered by Barnet with 11. Barnet have drawn three of their last five and are a tough side to beat, so I like the draw.
15:00 Dundee Utd v Kilmarnock
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Kilmarnock have been a good overs side, with 6 of their last 7 going over and an average of nearly 6 goals per game. Dundee United's last 4 games have also gone over, so I like the over.
15:00 East Kilbride v Dumbarton
East Kilbride & Yes
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
East Kilbride's title challenge looked to have hit the rocks when they lost 6-0 to rivals Spartans, leaving them 5 points behind after playing two more games. However, they quickly put that behind them, winning four on the trot, scoring 15 goals and finding themselves back at the summit. I can see them brushing aside struggling Dumbarton, but they only have six clean sheets this season and Dumbarton have scored in all but four games.
15:00 Harrogate Town v Bromley
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Harrogate have had a dreadful season, but there have been positive signs of late with two wins and two draws from their last three. The most impressive of these was a victory over in-form Cambridge. Bromley are the strongest side in the league, failing to score in just four games this season. They haven't kept a clean sheet in six, though, so I think both can score.
15:00 Huddersfield v Barnsley
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Huddersfield home games generally go over, with 9 going over and 7 under. They face the best overs side in the league in Barnsley, who have had 20 of their 29 go over, including their last 8.
15:00 Middlesbrough v Oxford Utd
Middlesbrough
50 WIN
Oxford are struggling badly, especially on the road, and have just one point from their last four games. Middlesbrough lost the top-of-the-table clash at Coventry last time but won their previous six and look too strong for Oxford United.
Middlesbrough #3-0
50 WIN
Oxford are struggling badly in front of goal of late, with just two from their last seven games. Middlesbrough have kept three consecutive clean sheets at home and put four past Southampton and Preston. They look capable of winning this 3??"0.
15:00 Norwich v Birmingham
Norwich 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Birmingham have struggled on the road all season, but after signing a whole raft of new players this year they claimed back-to-back away wins, doubling their tally of away wins this season. However, winning against Oxford and Sheffield Wednesday is nothing to get carried away with. Norwich are in fine form, with five wins from their last six. The one defeat was by one goal to a strong Middlesbrough side. With money back for the draw, they look the bet.
15:00 Port Vale v Reading
Reading -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Port Vale have been awful this season and come into this game with their last 19 games' form reading W2 D5 L11. Reading, by contrast, are going well with three wins and a draw from their last five.
15:00 South Shields v AFC Telford
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Both are solid overs sides, so Over looks the bet. 20 of South Shields' games have gone over, and 22 of Telford's games have.
15:00 Watford v Derby
Derby 0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
Watford are winless in 7, and it's not as if they have been playing the strongest sides in the league, having played three sides 16th or lower. Derby can be a tad erratic but are a good side on their day. They've won their last three away games, including a 5-0 thrashing of Bristol City last time. I see them at least getting a draw.
15:00 Wrexham v Ipswich
Yes
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
Ipswich are a strong side and have only failed to score in two away games this season. Wrexham failed to score last time against Millwall but scored in all their previous 15 games. Both have such strong records that I see both scoring.
15:00 York v Halifax
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
All bar two of York's home games have gone over this season, with an average of 4.1 goals per game. Eleven of Halifax's away games have gone over, so 'over' looks the bet.
York & Yes
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
York are a strong side and are banging in the goals at home, averaging over 3 goals per home game. I see them winning, but they have conceded in 7 of their last 9 home games. Halifax have scored in their last 5 away games and have failed to score in just 4 away games. So York and yes look the bet.
15:30 Alverca v Santa Clara
Draw
50 WIN
Santa Clara are winless in nine, but that doesn't tell the full story. They rarely get rolled over; only two losses all season have been by more than one goal. They play Alverca, whom they have beaten once this season, and they look capable of getting a draw out of this.
17:30 Truro City v Gateshead
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
Gateshead have conceded 37 away goals this season, the most in the league. As a result, 12 of their 16 away games have gone over. Their games have gone over largely because of the goals they conceded, but they took a big step forward midweek when winning 2-1 at Halifax. I therefore see this going over.
18:00 Frisch Auf Goppingen vs THW Kiel
Tie
Money Line
50 WIN
Goppingen have drawn 3 of their 10 home games, and another wouldn't surprise. They haven't done too badly at home of late, winning two, drawing two, and losing two. Even one of their losses was by just one point to third-placed Flensburg. Kiel have already drawn 6 games this season, so I like the draw.
20:00 Grenoble v Brive
Grenoble
To Win
50 WIN
Grenoble did lose to leaders Vannes last time, but that was only their second home loss of the season. Brive have lost all but one away game and struggle for tries, with their 127 points accumulated being the second-lowest total in the league.
22nd February 2026
12:15 Magical Kenya Open
Gregorio De Leo
1st Round Leader
25 EW
De Leo can often be fast out of the blocks but has a habit of throwing in poor rounds, making him a dubious outright proposition. However, in terms of first-round leader he does appeal. In his last two events he started well with a 67 in Bahrain and a 66 in Qatar. Last year he finished a fine 5th here, so he could easily go well again.
14:30 HSV Hamburg vs MT Melsungen
MT Melsungen
Money Line
50 WIN
Two sides going in different directions. Melsungen are up to 7th after four wins and a draw from their last five. Hamburg, by contrast, have dropped to 10th after five straight defeats, the most alarming of which was a home loss to second-bottom Leipzig. I like the outsiders in this one.
15:30 Lugano v Lausanne Sports
Lugano
50 WIN
Lugano have done well at home with a record of W7 D3 L2. Lausanne have lost their last two away matches, being thumped 5-1 by Thun and losing to basement side Winterthur. This looks winnable for Lugano.
22:45 The Genesis Invitational
Min Woo Lee
25 EW
There is a correlation between people who perform well at Augusta National and the Riviera. That makes Min Woo Lee of interest, as he came second there last year, just one shot off the lead. Also adding to his appeal is the fact he looked in good nick last week when finishing second at Pebble Beach.
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.
