hamgrat's Tips

26th April 2025
12:30 AFC Wimbledon v Port Vale

Draw

50 WIN

3.20

Back it

Wimbledon have drawn two of their last three league games and two of their last three at home while Port Vale drew their last game so I'm happy to back another stalemate here.
12:30 Chelsea v Everton

Chelsea #2-0

50 WIN

8.00

Back it

Chelsea are unbeaten in four with two clean sheets therein while Everton are up and down now their safety has been secured so I see a comfortable win for the hosts.
12:30 Doncaster v Bradford

Doncaster

50 WIN

2.20

Back it

Doncaster come into this on the back of a brace of 3-0 league wins so I'm backing them to make it three wins in a row against Bradford, who've won none of their last three.
13:00 Harrogate Town v Notts County

Draw

50 WIN

4.00

Back it

Harrogate have drawn two of their last three while Notts County drew their last away game so I'm happy to go for a draw here too.
15:00 Barrow v Bromley

Draw

50 WIN

3.60

Back it

Barrow have drawn their last two games 0-0 and four of their last eight while Bromley have edged 1-0 wins in their last two games, so this should be tight and could easily finish level.
15:00 Cheltenham v Carlisle

Cheltenham

50 WIN

2.88

Back it

Cheltenham have won two of their last three games, but both were away from home. They can turn around some poor home form given Carlisle's mixed away form of late.
15:00 Fleetwood Town v Newport County

Draw

50 WIN

4.33

Back it

Fleetwood drew their last home game and Newport County have drawn their last two and three of their last six so a draw could be worth a shot here.
15:00 Gillingham v Swindon

Gillingham

50 WIN

2.80

Back it

Gillingham are on a long unbeaten run and have won two of their last three with both of those wins coming at home so they can beat Swindon, who lost to Bromley last time out.
15:00 Milton Keynes Dons v Grimsby

Grimsby

50 WIN

2.25

Back it

An away win looks the choice here with MK Dons only winning one of their last seven games, and that was away, while Grimsby are well above them in the table.
15:00 Salford City v Colchester

Salford City

50 WIN

2.20

Back it

Salford enjoyed a good away win on Monday and can build on that against Colchester who were hammered by Doncaster away from home.
15:30 Santa Clara v FC Arouca

Draw #1-1

50 WIN

6.50

Back it

Santa Clara drew their last game 1-1 and Arouca drew their last away game 2-2 so I think a score draw is on the cards here.
19:30 Toronto FC v New York City FC

Draw

50 WIN

3.50

Back it

Toronto have drawn three of their last four games and trail New York by four points, but with the visitors somewhat inconsistent at the start of the season, I can see this being a draw.
20:30 Estrela Amadora v FC Porto

FC Porto #2-0

50 WIN

7.00

Back it

Porto should win this one but having won their last two by one-goal margins, I think they'll step it up here and put struggling Estrela away by a two-goal margin.
21:30 Philadelphia Union v DC United

Draw

50 WIN

4.00

Back it

Both Philadelphia Union and DC United won their last game and lost the one before that 1-0, so with them in very similar form, I'll back the draw at an attractive price.
22:30 Ceara v Sao Paulo

Ceara

50 WIN

2.30

Back it

Ceara have won both of their home games so far so I'm giving them the edge over Sao Paulo, who have drawn both away games so far and are level on points with their hosts.
22:30 Mirassol v Atletico Mineiro

Mirassol

50 WIN

3.00

Back it

Mirassol are unbeaten in four games and handsomely won their last home game while Mineiro have lost both of their away games so far this term.
27th April 2025
00:00 Sport Recife v Fortaleza

Sport Recife

50 WIN

2.45

Back it

Neither of these sides have won their last two games, so I'm plumping for the home side to win by taking advantage of being the hosts, and not much more.
01:00 Botafogo v Fluminense

Botafogo

50 WIN

2.30

Back it

Botafogo haven't started their campaign well but they are unbeaten at home and given Fluminense have lost once on the road already, I give the hosts the edge in this one.
22:30 Vitoria v Gremio

Vitoria

50 WIN

2.40

Back it

Vitoria are unbeaten in three games and won their last home fixture so I see them beating Gremio who have lost three and drawn one of their last four.
26th May 2025
15:00 Indian Premier League 2025

Chennai Super Kings

Outright Winner

50 WIN

6.00

Back it

Five-time winners, that's more than any other team, so it's hard to look past them to repeat those successes and they look to have a really good squad this time around.

Kolkata Knight Riders

Outright Winner

25 EW

10.00

Back it

They won the title last season so will be there or thereabouts but perhaps lack the squad depth to win it again given Shreyas Iyer has gone, but I can see them getting to the final.
12th July 2026
12:00 World Cup 2026

Spain

50 WIN

7.00

Back it

Beat several top sides to win the Euros and are still in good form now less than 18 months from the tournament so I'll back them to win the overall event.
