23:00 New South Wales W vs Tasmania W One Day Match
New South Wales W
Win Match
50 WIN
@-249
Open
0
New South Wales have won 9 out of 9, and as long as they don't get complacent they should make it 10. Tasmania have lost 7 on the trot and simply don't have the quality of NSW.
22:45 The Genesis Invitational
Min Woo Lee
25 EW
@+4000
Open

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.
18:00 Luke Littler vs Josh Rock
Luke Littler
Most 180s

Rock has a good game but does struggle when playing elite guys. He has played Littler 4 times and lost every time. Littler has been disappointing in the Premier League, so he will be keen to go well this weekend.

Bukayo Saka

Spurs have been dreadful at home this season with just two clean sheets. I therefore see Arsenal scoring. Saka limped off with what looked like a knee injury in the 73rd minute last time, but apparently he's fit for this match. That's a big plus for Arsenal, as he was their standout player against Wolves and scored the opening goal.

Armagh
FT Result
50 WIN
@+175
Open

Recently Donegal seem to have had little interest in reaching the league final, prioritising the Ulster championship. I'm therefore expecting a sharp drop-off in form after a good start. Armagh are impressive in attack but have struggled at the back. However, I don't see Donegal playing their strongest side so Armagh could well have enough to contain Donegal.
15:30 Lugano v Lausanne Sports
Lugano

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.

There was once talk of Georgia replacing Italy in the Six Nations, but that's now highly unlikely. Italy have raised their game and are no longer the whipping boys. With Wales struggling, they should avoid the wooden spoon again. Despite their improved form, winning in France looks a bridge too far. France are really strong at home and have scored 30 points or more in nine of their last ten. They've thrashed Ireland and should win cosily.

I was expecting the handicap line to be 22.5??"23.5, so 24.5 is a tad higher than I hoped. However, I still think France can cover it. Italy have come on significantly and should avoid the wooden spoon for a third consecutive year. However, they play a France team in full flight who look unstoppable at the moment. They brushed aside Wales by 42 and thumped Ireland by 22. With Ireland beating England easily yesterday, that makes the result look even stronger.

Huddersfield went down 26-10 to Catalans last week, but it’s never easy going to France, so I’m expecting them to be better now at home. Wakefield lost at home to promoted Toulouse and showed little to justify their favoritism.

Orpo are bottom and have lost 9 on the trot coming into this. Arctic Volley have lost their last two coming into this, but those games were against top-3 sides. They beat Orpo easily 3-0 earlier in the season and should win again.

MT Melsungen

@+170

-50
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.
14:00 Cork v Meath
Cork
FT Result
50 WIN
@+110

Meath are unbeaten so far, but they only just squeaked past Cavan and Louth. Cork are also unbeaten but beat Louth and Cavan rather more convincingly. I give them the edge.
14:00 Crystal Palace v Wolverhampton
Draw
50 WIN
@+279
Open

Wolves have drawn 3 of their last 4 away games, with their one defeat being to Man City. Palace are winless in 8 at home, so I see this ending in a rather dull draw.
Jorgen Larsen

@+137

Jørgen Strand Larsen has scored more goals for Palace than Wolves this season despite just 2 games for Palace and 22 for Wolves. He's enjoying being the focal point of their attack and would probably love to score against his old club.

There were 5 corners when the sides met earlier in the season and a similar amount wouldn't surprise. Palace are averaging 3.9 corners per game and Wolves 3.3. They would have to raise the amount for this to go over.

Forest have drawn their last three home games, including against Arsenal. Earlier in the season they had a stunning 3-0 win at Anfield, so they should be confident of getting something out of this.
Hugo Ekitike

@+129

-50
Forest haven't been strong at home, with just four teams conceding more goals than them. I therefore think Liverpool can score. Ekitike is having a fine debut season, with 10 goals from 23 games. That is despite playing bit parts for many games when Isak was playing.

The line is set at 10 and both sides' games are averaging exactly 10 corners per game, so it looks 50/50. However, only two of Forest's home games have gone under 10, and the game earlier in the season between these two contained 14 corners.
14:00 Offaly v Galway
Offaly 7.50
Handicap
50 WIN
@-120
Open
0
Offaly have struggled so far, but they did hang in there against Waterford and Kilkenny, both of whom are going better than Galway. Galway are winless, but they have been competitive. However, the wides totals are racking up, with 14 alone against Galway. They would have to be far more clinical in attack to cover this line, and I just don't see that happening.
14:00 Sunderland v Fulham
Draw
50 WIN
@+229
Open
0
Sunderland are the favourites due to their fine home record of W7 D5 L1. However, three of those wins came against the bottom three. They don't score many, and Fulham beat them earlier in the season, so I see Fulham grinding out a draw.
Under 9.50
Total Corners
50 WIN
@-108
Open
0
Sunderland don't win many corners and are averaging just 3.3 per home game. Fulham tend to win 3 or 4 per game on the road, with 10 of their 13 games containing 4 or fewer. So I see the sides struggling to be reaching this target.
Over 3.50

Sunderland are averaging 2 yellows per game and they have 2 reds. Fulham are averaging just over 2 per game, so if they maintain their average this should go over.
13:45 Kilkenny v Waterford
Waterford

50 WIN
@+160

-50
Waterford started poorly with a loss to Cork but responded in fine style by beating Limerick and Offaly. Kilkenny look a side who haven't really got out of the blocks yet and should get stronger as the season progresses. I think Waterford bring the stronger form.
13:30 India vs South Africa World Cup
India
Win Match
50 WIN
@-238
Lose
-50
South Africa are a strong side and won all their last four games. However, they did need Super Overs to get past Afghanistan. They also lost to India in their opener, with India posting 240 runs. India, to my mind, are the strongest T20 side in the world with no real weaknesses, so I think they will prevail.
13:30 Jonny Clayton vs Michael Smith
Jonny Clayton
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
@-200

-50
Michael Smith's standard has dropped significantly over the past year, with him now ranked down at 32. He did win a final-set decider against Cullen yesterday with some powerful scoring; however, his doubling was poor, with 16 missed doubles. Clayton is obviously in top form after winning Premier League Night 3. He is the far more reliable player.

?l?sk Wroc?aw are a good BTTS side, particularly at home, with all but one game ending with both teams scoring. Odra Opole aren't a strong side, but they have scored in 7 of their 10 away games. So yes, looks like the option.

I just don't see Zhao Xintong running away with this. In two of his three matches he has needed a final-frame decider to prevail. Higgins was in great form yesterday when beating Trump, so should hang in there.

Gregorio De Leo
1st Round Leader
25 EW
@+5000

-50
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.

Snigur has dominated her four opponents on the way to the final, winning them all 2-0. However, Golubic is her toughest opponent so far. Golubic is the more accomplished player and has won both head-to-heads.
09:30 Sri Lanka vs England World Cup
Sri Lanka
Win Match
50 WIN
@+160
Lose
-50
England have a hugely impressive batting line-up with good batters all the way down to Jacks at 7. However, their top order has under-achieved and it's taken the likes of Curran and Jacks to rescue them. England batters often struggle against spin, and Sri Lanka have been adept at that. This wicket favours spin. I can see an upset.
04:00 Sean Strickland v Anthony Hernandez
Sean Strickland
Win Fight
50 WIN
@+240
Win
120
Hernandez is a force on the mat and will invariably try to get his opponent down and choke him out. Strickland, though, is the toughest fighter he has faced and is incredibly hard to take down with his top-notch defense. In terms of striking, Strickland has the edge, so he looks like value at 3.4.
03:10 Geoff Neal v Uros Medic
Uros Medic
Win Fight
50 WIN
@+179
Win
90
This looks like a fight where it will be decided by who is knocked onto their backside first. Both are big hitters and capable of KOing their opponent. Neal has the better defence, and Medic looks more vulnerable in defence. However, Medic is a serious knockout threat and excels with his knees and elbows in close exchanges. As a 2.8 dog, he looks worth a punt.
02:10 Sergey Spivak v Ante Delija
Ante Delija
Win Fight
50 WIN
@-124

-50
Spivak can dominate lesser opponents but struggles against big, powerful fighters. Delija is certainly that. He will happily stand in the middle and exchange punches all day long. His takedown defense is solid, so this will be decided on their feet. Delija has the advantage in this department and can floor his opponent.
00:45 Chidi Njokuani v Carlos Leal
Chidi Njokuani

Chidi Njokuani has a significant four-inch height and six-inch reach advantage over Carlos Leal, which could be telling. Leal's recent first-round knockout loss to Muslim Salikhov exposed his defence, and a good puncher like Chidi can drop him.

Australian Capital Territory Women have won four games, but it's notable that all four were against the two weakest sides in the competition. When playing against the stronger sides, they came up well short. South Australia Women have won six of ten, including two wins over second-placed Queensland. Their batting looks far more reliable, so they look the likely winners.
21:30 Canterbury vs Central Districts One Day Match
Central Districts
Win Match
50 WIN
@+120
Win
60
Central Districts had a morale-boosting victory over Canterbury earlier this week when, defending 288, they bowled out Canterbury for 254. They thrashed Wellington in the eliminator, posting a sizeable 349 and then skittled Wellington out for just 138. They have great batting depth and seem to thrive when playing at the Basin Reserve.
20:30 Luke Humphries vs Krzysztof Ratajski
Luke Humphries
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
@-333
Win
15
Humphries has dominated Ratajski of late, winning their last seven meetings. That includes a 6??"0 whitewash when they last met. He did have a dip in form, but prior to his last-leg defeat to Van Veen he had won eight on the trot, so he is clearly the most likely winner.
20:00 Grenoble v Brive

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.
20:00 Man City v Newcastle
Man City

Man City have slipped up a few times but still maintain a strong home record of W10 D2 L1. Newcastle haven't done that well on the road with a record of W3 D4 L6. City should have too much for them.

Handicap (2-way)
50 WIN
@-124

-50
Wigan beat Castleford by 10 last week but didn't overly impress. All their points were scored in a 33-minute spell when Castleford lost their concentration. There were large parts of the game where they were frustrated by Cas. Hull beat Bradford in their opener, and Bradford franked that form by beating Catalans by 18. Last season Hull won at Wigan, beating them in the Challenge Cup and thrashing them 32-12 in the league. I think they stay within 14.
19:30 Cuneo W vs Vallefoglia W
Cuneo W

Cuneo had a fine away win last time over then-4th-placed Novarro to lift themselves out of the relegation zone. They have another challenging game tonight, but this time at home to 6th-placed Vallefoglia. However, Vallefoglia are firmly in the play-offs, can't move up or down, and won't have anywhere near the motivation of Cuneo.
19:00 Michael Smith vs Joe Cullen
Joe Cullen

Both have tumbled down the rankings, with both now outside the top 30. Cullen, though, has been playing the better darts of late and averaged 99 yesterday in beating Kciuk. He beat Smith 6-4 when they met earlier in the months, and with Smith struggling more, I think Cullen wins again.

Cannes are a strong side but come into this having lost to second-placed Vandoeuvre last time at home. They now face leaders Mulhouse, who have lost just once.

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.

Castleford competed well enough at home to Wigan but ultimately went down by 10. Promoted Toulouse had a fine win away at Wakefield and now play in front of their home fans. It's never easy for the English clubs to play in France, and with the strong home support I see Toulouse winning.

Dachau lost four on the trot before yesterday's win over VCO Berlin, but that doesn't phase me. Those four losses were against the sides placed 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 6th. They were competitive in all of them, losing 3-1, 3-1, 3-2, and 3-2. They brushed aside VCO Berlin yesterday 3-0 and look capable of doing something similar to Warnemünde, who have lost their last seven.

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.

West Ham are clearly playing better now, with 3 wins and a draw from their last 5, so I see them scoring. However, with just 2 clean sheets all season I also see them conceding. Both teams have scored in 10 of Bournemouth's last 11 games, so yes, looks like the option.

45
Scotland were impressive at Murrayfield when beating England last week. However, they always raise their game against England and seldom play to that level against other sides. Wales were hammered by both France and England, but I simply don't see Scotland winning by a large margin. Wales are a poor side, but they do have talent going forward and should be more competitive against Scotland on their own turf. This looks like their best opportunity for a win, so I see them putting enough points on the board to keep within 17.

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.

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.

Leeds have been tough to beat since December, with the only defeats in their last 13 being to Arsenal and two injury-time goals in a 4-3 loss to Newcastle. Villa are a strong home side but have outperformed their expected goals (xG) and have lost 2 of their last 3. I therefore think Leeds can grab a draw.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

There are always goals in Bayern's games, with all 22 going over. They seem to have the mentality that they don't seem over-fussed if the opposition score, as they will outscore them. As a result, they have conceded in their last six home games, including to three bottom-half sides. Frankfurt have scored in their last seven games, so I see them getting a consolation goal.

Cologne have scored in all but one home game this season. So, despite being the outsiders in this one, I think they can score. Hoffenheim are going well in third but have conceded in 16 of their 22 games, so I think both teams will score.

England looked impressive against Wales, but on reflection that says more about the quality of the Welsh game at the moment. They were poor in losing to Scotland, with too many handling errors, and too often lost their cool. Ireland look a shadow of the team they once were, but they still look strong enough to keep within 10 of England.

These two usually have close matches. In their eight best-of-11 matches, six of them went over 9.5 legs. Add to the mix the recent Masters meeting, which went to a final set, and the European Championship semi, which ended 11-10. Then "over" looks like the bet.

It's a wicket that generally favours chasers, and with rain expected the team chasing looks to have a clear advantage. If the game comes down to D/L, the team chasing seems to have the advantage as they know exactly how hard to go. With Pakistan winning the toss but surprisingly choosing to bat, I prefer the Kiwis.

Royal Infantry has been running in Listed races and Class 2 handicaps with credit. That is despite the ground being softer than ideal for it. It now drops to a Class 3, and the ground should be more favourable. The top two have the potential to improve, but this is a step up in class for them.

Higgins beat Trump at the Masters via a final-frame decider. However, prior to that Trump had won their previous seven meetings. Trump will aim to get back to his dominant ways over Higgins. He was in fine form against Williams in the last round, winning 6-3 despite Williams making two centuries. His potting and safety play look spot on right now, so I give him the edge.

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.

Pilgrim beat Chisnall in round 1 but didn't impress; he's not quite as bad as Chisnall. Chisnall was really struggling, missing 23 of his 27 attempts at doubles. Pilgrim average just 87, which won't cut it if Aspinall brings his normal game.

Dobey was disappointing against King in the Players Event 4. However, prior to that he won Players Event 3, thrashing Bunting 8-1 in the final. If he reaches that level again, he should beat Scutt. Scutt has a good A game, but we don't see it that often, so Dobey looks the likely winner.

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.

Schindler has always blown hot and cold, and you never know when he is going to bring his best game. If he is anywhere near his best, he has the ability to blow Krcmar away. He has lost 4 of his last 5, but he can play like that and then, out of the blue, play great darts. He has won all 3 meetings with Krcmar, so I give him the edge.

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.

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.

South Australia beat Queensland in the previous match, but that was via D/L and I never read too much into that. Their only other win was over basement side Victoria. Their bowling is largely ineffective and their batting unreliable. Queensland aren't the strongest, but they should have enough to win this.
