5th April 2026
13:00 Ekaterina Kazionova vs Elina Avanesyan
Ekaterina Kazionova
Win Match
50 WIN
This is a classic value bet for me. Kazionova arrives in good form for her level, and the jury's still out for Avanesyan, who won just once on clay last season and has been hit and miss in 2026.
17:20 5:20 Southwell
Easter Sundae
Daily Racing
25 EW
The appropriately named Easter Sundae improved greatly with the application of cheekpieces from new connections last time out. He has improved on each and every run for these connections and keeps the rock-bottom handicap mark once again tomorrow. Worth a punt just in case the last-time-out run isn't a one-off.
17:55 5:55 Bath
Rainbow Sign
Daily Racing
25 EWNB
Winless all-weather season has served to drop RAINBOW SIGN's handicap weight back to the last winning mark on turf at Brighton last September. Even though there wasn't a win on the all-weather, there wasn't a complete drop-off in form, so there may be some life still in this one. He's handily drawn, and even though winning is hard to come by, there are each-way claims and an extra place to aim for too.
18:30 Josh Rock vs Ryan Joyce
Ryan Joyce
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
I think Rock is still struggling for consistency from leg to leg at the moment, so there's every chance Joyce lands this one.
19:05 Judd Trump v Zhao Xintong
Judd Trump
Win Match
50 WIN
Xintong is hot property at the moment with his Grand Prix and Players Championship wins. Also, anyone who beats John Higgins 10-1 commands respect, but Trump should be written off at your peril and he's taken at this price.
20:00 Michael van Gerwen vs Niko Springer
Niko Springer
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
MvG is more focused on turning up on Thursday nights at the moment. I think with his attention on that, he might not go too far here.
20:30 Nathan Aspinall vs Ricardo Pietreczko
Ricardo Pietreczko
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
When both of these players blow hot, they can really go on a streak. At the same time, they can both dip. I'll chance Pietreczko in the hope we find him on a good day.
20:40 MEM Grizzlies @ MIL Bucks
MEM Grizzlies
Money Line
50 WIN
I just have a theory that when two eliminated teams face off, there's no such thing as a nailed-on favorite, and the Grizzlies could take this.
20:40 WAS Wizards @ BKN Nets
WAS Wizards
Money Line
50 WIN
In a very rare pick, I'll chance Washington at this price. With both sides eliminated and in terrible form, there's every chance this one could be closer than the price suggests.
21:00 Martin Schindler vs Brendan Dolan
Brendan Dolan
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
This looks a 50/50 coin toss to me, and Dolan is therefore a value play to overcome Schindler and reach round three.
21:30 Gian van Veen vs William OConnor
William OConnor
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
WIth no Littler/Humphries I think Van Veen will be expecting a good run here but O'Connor can certainly give him a game here and is chanced at the price.
6th April 2026
02:37 STL Blues @ COL Avalanche
STL Blues
Money Line
50 WIN
Blues in pretty decent form of late, matching Colorado statistically, so I think they are worth a look despite their inferior record.
10:00 Mitchell Mann v Wang Xinbo
Mitchell Mann
Win Match
50 WIN
Mann is backable for me here as he just looks to be statistically in better shape at the moment. I like his chances here.
10:00 Yao Pengcheng v Ryan Davies
Ryan Davies
Win Match
50 WIN
This will probably be closer than the odds suggest, so I think Davies is backable to nick this one. They are both pretty evenly matched statistically.
12:30 Portsmouth v Oxford Utd
Oxford Utd
50 WIN
Huge match at the bottom of the table. Whilst Portsmouth should be favourites, Oxford have good form, are only a point behind, and are definitely a value win bet.
14:30 Haris Tahir v Connor Benzey
Connor Benzey
Win Match
50 WIN
Benzey looks a tasty price in a one-on-one contest and he's got every chance of taking this match. Should be shorter for the win in my opinion.
14:30 Ken Doherty v Patrick Whelan
Patrick Whelan
Win Match
50 WIN
Doherty's on a bit of a slowdown at the moment, so even though Whelan is the unfashionable pick here, he could be good enough to win this one.
14:30 Liam Pullen v Alfie Burden
Alfie Burden
Win Match
50 WIN
Burden has the potential to land this one and has a pretty good record this season. If he is at his best, he can win this.
14:30 Mateusz Baranowski v Florian Nuessle
Mateusz Baranowski
Win Match
50 WIN
Baranowski was my favourite when I priced this one up, so he looks a decent bet to knock out Nuessle and is a surprising underdog.
15:00 AFC Wimbledon v Luton
AFC Wimbledon
50 WIN
Mid-table battle and I think Wimbledon will be too strong for Luton with the home advantage. They've got every chance of picking up the three points.
15:00 Barnsley v Plymouth
Barnsley
50 WIN
This looks a really tough match to call, and I think it's potentially too little, too late for Plymouth's play-off push. With the home advantage, Barnsley can win this.
15:00 Bristol City v Sheff Utd
Bristol City
50 WIN
With the home advantage , I think Bristol City should be the favourites for this one. They are also higher in the table and should take the points.
15:00 Cheltenham v Cambridge Utd
Cheltenham
50 WIN
Cheltenham have had some tricky away games which has affected their form. This is not the easiest place to come and get a result, and Cambridge aren't in great form on the road either.
15:00 Crawley Town v Grimsby
Crawley Town
50 WIN
Vital couple of wins for Crawley in the last two matches, and they are expected to get a third with the home advantage here. This certainly will be a tricky one for Grimsby.
15:00 Crewe v Salford City
Crewe
50 WIN
Crewe looking like they can land this one with that final play-off spot up for grabs and the home advantage here. Every chance of taking this one.
15:00 Exeter v Doncaster
Exeter
50 WIN
Exeter desperately needs the points and is running out of matches, particularly at home. This is a strong opportunity for them to pick up a vital win.
15:00 Fleetwood Town v Barnet
Fleetwood Town
50 WIN
Fleetwood can make this count with the home advantage. They are just six points behind Barnet and look to have a decent shot at the three points.
15:00 Gillingham v Accrington Stanley
Accrington Stanley
50 WIN
Both of these sides are in freefall of late, so Gillingham probably shouldn't be this heavily favoured. They really are struggling to pick up wins at the moment.
15:00 Leyton Orient v Huddersfield
Leyton Orient
50 WIN
Orient unbeaten in six now, and Huddersfield are struggling for form, with the season petering out to a degree. I'll look at the O's here.
15:00 Oldham v Milton Keynes Dons
Oldham
50 WIN
Oldham are really gathering some momentum and got a good win on Good Friday. They could find the play-offs through the back door and could well land this.
15:00 Peterborough v Cardiff
Peterborough
50 WIN
Cardiff's form is dropping off a touch, and this looks like a very difficult prospect for them. Peterborough are proving difficult to beat and could get the win.
15:00 Reading v Lincoln City
Reading
50 WIN
Reading desperately need the win to keep their play-off hopes on course. They definitely have the value at this price.
15:00 Stevenage v Blackpool
Blackpool
50 WIN
I just don't think Stevenage will sustain a play-off push. This is a tricky contest for them, with Blackpool navigating their way to safety with three wins in four.
15:00 Watford v Charlton
Charlton
50 WIN
Watford are done for in the play-off push and Charlton look safe, so this could be a really close game. It's certainly closer than this price structure suggests.
17:30 Swansea v Middlesbrough
Swansea
50 WIN
Boro are having a real problem at the moment, and I think Swansea look a decent punt at this price to pinch the points and derail their promotion push further.
20:00 Hull v Coventry
Hull
50 WIN
This might be a case of who wants it more. With Coventry eleven points clear at the top, they've got a comfortable cushion. Hull desperately need the points and are a value bet.
7th April 2026
20:00 Wrexham v Southampton
Wrexham
50 WIN
Probably after the Lord Mayor's Show for Southampton, and Wrexham are taken to pick up the points and boost their play-off hopes here.
