In the Premiership, Newcastle have struggled away from home. Their last six away games have seen them lose five and win one. In their last home game, which was against Everton, they earned a point and prevented Everton from scoring. With Newcastle's poor away record, hopefully Burnley can build on that point and clean sheet and get a much-needed win.

In their respective tables, BOS Celtics are third and UTA Jazz are eleventh. BOS Celtics have won on their last two visits to UTA Jazz.

The latest meeting between these two sides saw the UTA Jazz travel to the BOS Celtics and come away with a win. They won their last home game, and with this starting advantage, it gives them a sporting chance of getting the win.

DET Pistons have lost their last two away games. Both of those defeats came against teams lower in the table than the LA Lakers. LA Lakers won their last home game.

Although the LA Clippers have played one game less than the SAC Kings, they find themselves one place and one point above them in the table. The SAC Kings have lost their last four away games, while the LA Clippers have won their last three home games.

In total Smurfette ran six times last season, winning twice. Those two wins came in her last three runs. For her final race of the season she was upped in distance to three miles and duly obliged by just under five lengths. She was last seen racing towards the end of November 2024. The time off the racecourse may be more of an issue than the five pounds she has gone up in the ratings. She should appreciate the underfoot conditions and can hopefully overcome her long absence and gain another win.

Last month Glengouly raced over today's course and distance from seven pounds out of the handicap and won by just over a length at 33/1. That was by far the best performance this horse has shown. In winning that race he ran off a mark three pounds lower than what he races off today. Hopefully his last visit to Cheltenham was not a fluke, and he can follow that up with another round of good jumping and get the win.

After taking only one point from their last three away Premiership games, Tottenham returned to winning ways at Crystal Palace after the Christmas break. Tottenham won this fixture last season, and following that win at Palace, they look likely to do so again.

This season Sunderland have played nine home Premiership games, which has resulted in five wins and four draws. Following Arsenal's win against Aston Villa, the pressure will return to the Manchester City players as they seek to once again narrow the gap. There is every chance that, for the visit of City, the Sunderland crowd will really get behind their players. If the home team lift their game, there is every chance of another home win.
