20:15 Montpellier v Pau
Montpellier -10.50
Handicap
50 WIN
@-108
Lose
-50
A game that will settle who finishes second, and Montpellier have the crucial home advantage. They have been impressive at home, winning 10 of their 12 games, and come into this on the back of a 59-26 thrashing of Ulster in the Challenge Cup. Like most French sides, Pau don't travel well. They have lost 8 of their 12 away games, including 5 of their last 6. I see Montpellier recording a double-digit victory.
20:00 Granada v Sporting Gijon
Sporting Gijon (AH) 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@+104
Win
52
Granada are finishing their season poorly, losing 5 of their last 6. Their one win came over bottom side Zaragoza. Gijón, by contrast, have won their last two, including a fine win over promotion-chasing Almería, ending their automatic promotion hopes. They are ending the season far stronger.
16:48 4:48 Newcastle
Coolavanny Drew
Daily Races
50 WIN
@+350
Lose
-50
Coolavanny Drew has been running in some decent races, so should give a good account of itself. It finished 2nd in its last three races and holds the fastest time. I see it getting its nose in front this time.
16:00 Osters IF v Norrby IF
Norrby IF (AH) 0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@-102
Lose
-50
A 0.25 start makes Norrby of interest. They lost their opening game after having a player sent off but went on an incredible run of seven consecutive draws. However, last time they finally got a win when beating Ljungskile. They look a tough team to beat, and I'm not sure Östers is the side to do it. Östers concede plenty and are looking pretty average, so I like the visitors with the start.

15:15 AD Ceuta v Albacete Balompie
Albacete Balompie (AH) 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@-113
Lose
-50
The bookies can't split the teams with both starting at the same price. I just prefer Albacete as they are finishing the season strong with 4 wins on the trot. Their away form is the sixth best in the league with a record of won 7, drawn 7, lost 6. Ceuta are winless in their last 4 home games, so I think Albacete get at least a draw.
15:00 Northampton Saints v Gloucester
Under 72.50
Total Points
50 WIN
@-120
Win
41
I think the bookies have overreacted a tad to Northampton's 94-33 demolition of Bristol last week. Northampton are obviously a quality side, but 72.5 looks a big total. Although they should win, Gloucester have shown fight of late, beating Sale and Exeter, and keeping Saracens to 30-14, so I think this stays under.
15:00 Wigan Warriors v Hull KR
Hull KR -2.50
Handicap (2-way)
50 WIN
@+110
Lose
-50
Forget the recent Super League match between the pair that KR won 62-4. Wigan rested their first team, so a thrashing was always on the cards. Although Wigan have been impressive in the Challenge Cup, their Super League form has been iffy, with defeats to strugglers Huddersfield and Castleford a cause for concern. KR have gotten stronger as the season progressed and have just that bit more quality than Wigan.
14:00 AIK v Sirius
Isak Bjerkebo
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
@+450
Lose
-50
Isak Bjerkebo has been banging in the goals, scoring 9 times in 9 games. Ledfers Sirius play an ordinary AIK side, so I like his chances today.
13:00 Diane Parry vs Amanda Anisimova
Amanda Anisimova
Win Match
50 WIN
@-454
Lose
-50
Parry has reached the third round of every major but always comes unstuck at this stage, losing all five times. She faces an uphill task to improve on that record against Anisimova. Anisimova has never lost in a major to a player outside the top 90 sothis looks a tall order for world number 92 Parry. Anisimova has had an easy time of it, so she should be fresh. She dropped just four games against Rakotomanga Rajaonah and won the first set 6-0 in the next round before Grabher retired. Last year's US Open and Wimbledon finalist has the quality to breeze through this one.

Win
41
Saracens are in fine form, winning 4 on the trot, but 70.5 looks a tad high. Last week they beat Gloucester 30-14, and in their previous home game beat Leicester 19-15. I think they can win convincingly, but the line looks a tad high.
12:00 Bulls v Munster
Munster 16.50
Handicap
50 WIN
@-120
Lose
-50
Bulls are a dangerous side and are able to name a good side for this. However, Munster always raise their game against the Bulls and lost by just three when the sides met in March. In fact, the last six of their meetings have been settled by less than this handicap.
11:00 Flavio Cobolli vs Learner Tien
Over 38.50
Total Games
50 WIN
@+100
Lose
-50
Tien has taken his clay form to a whole new level this year with a 9-3 win/loss record. Considering he was 3-7 on it last year the improvement is stark. He looks far more comfortable grinding away for every point this year, making him tough to beat. This was evident when he came from 2-1 down in sets and 5-3 down to come back to win against Díaz Acosta in the last round. Cobolli has cruised through 3-0 in both games, but he should find Tien a tougher opponent than he has faced, so I like the over.
10:35 Western Force v Waratahs
Under 51.50
Total Points
50 WIN
@-117
Lose
-50
Force have picked up significantly as the season draws to a close. However, they haven't been blowing sides away, with their last four games all going under this total. Waratahs should be competitive in this one, so I foresee a tight, low-scoring game.
10:00 Francisco Cerundolo vs Zachary Svajda
Zachary Svajda
Win Match
50 WIN
@+800
Win
400
Zachary Svajda seems to have taken his form to a new level here. He was far more aggressive than in the past in round one when upsetting warm favourite Popyrin, banging in 17 aces in four sets. He was equally impressive when beating Walton in round two. The quicker conditions obviously suit him, and when the pair met on a hardcourt in 2024 he won in straight sets. Cerúndolo can often disappoint when the chips are down, and with the draw opening up for him he's not the sort of player to thrive.
10:00 Iva Jovic vs Naomi Osaka
Iva Jovic
Win Match
50 WIN
@+100
Lose
-50
Jovic is a player on the rise, currently at number 17, and a top-10 spot will surely be on the cards soon. The way she brushed aside the dangerous Navarro, losing just three games in the last round, was eye-catching. Her game has become far more aggressive of late, and her heavy topspin shots should cause Osaka all sorts of problems, as Osaka sometimes struggles with that.
10:00 Maria Sakkari vs Maja Chwalinska
Over 22.50
Total Games
50 WIN
@+110
Win
55
I really didn't expect Sakkari to come through against Noskova in round one, but she played well to do so. She showed good grit and determination to come back from a set down against Liu in the next, so is looking in decent shape right now. Chwalinska is ranked 114 but isn't playing like that, beating both Zhend and Metens 6-4, 6-0. As the underdog, that was a pretty impressive effort. She looks like she would happily run all day for a point, so will be tough to beat. As good as she has been playing, I don't see her winning this quite as easily.
08:30 Wests Tigers v Canterbury Bulldogs
Wests Tigers
To Win
50 WIN
@-163
Win
31
Bulldogs came back well against Storm last week after trailing by 12 at halftime to win 30-20. However, their away form is poor, with just one win from six attempts. The Tigers started the season strongly but have tailed off of late. This has coincided with players missing. This week, however, they should be able to field a strong side, so this looks winnable for them.
06:00 Newcastle Knights v Parramatta Eels
Newcastle Knights -15.50
Handicap (2-way)
50 WIN
@-113
Lose
-50
Knights look to be kicking into top gear, winning their last three and compiling 124 points in the process. They face an Eels side that have injuries and collapsed when last playing against Storm. I can see Knights distancing them in this one.

Over 64.50
Total Points
50 WIN
@-117
Lose
-50
When this game was played in October the total went over with Bath winning 49-19. Bath scored 69 last time against Newcastle, but that was chicken feed compared to Bristol's game. Bristol scored 33 against Northampton but were still thrashed, with the home side scoring an incredible 94 points. That's obviously a bad sign against a talented Bath side, but Bristol are strong enough going forward to score enough to take this over.
19:45 Drogheda United v Waterford FC
Mark Doyle
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
@+500
Lose
-50
Drogheda United have 7 points from their last three home games and should have the beating of bottom side Waterford. Waterford have just one point from nine away games and are conceding an average of 2.8 goals per away game. I therefore see goals for Drogheda. Their striker Mark Doyle has 7 for the season compared to their next best of three. He should find Waterford easy to breach, so looks the most likely first scorer.
19:45 Glasgow Warriors v Connacht
Under 52.50
Total Points
50 WIN
@-109
Lose
-50
Connacht have improved as the season progressed and look a well-drilled, tough-to-beat side. They won their last two games, conceding just 5 and 7 points. Glasgow have been the class of the league, but they did lose to Connacht when the sides met in February, with a low-scoring 15-10 victory. I expect Connacht to be tough to break down, keeping the tally under.
18:30 Derbyshire vs Nottinghamshire T20
Derbyshire
Win Match
50 WIN
@+125
Win
62
Martin Anderson was sensational in the win over Leicestershire, making a 50 and taking 6 wickets for just 23 runs. That included a nonchalant one-handed caught and bowled. That followed on from 81 not out against Yorkshire. Bowler Jack Morley also posted an impressive 4-44 bowling figures against Yorks and 3-35 against Durham, making them a dangerous bowling attack. Notts have lost both games and have been underwhelming so far. Despite being favourites, Notts don't look like favourites.
18:30 Glamorgan vs Somerset T20
Somerset
Win Match
50 WIN
@-175
Lose
-50
Glamorgan have lost both games, and although they have been largely competitive, they lack a bit of quality. Their batting is a concern, with the top order struggling. Only number 7 batters Douthwaite and Hurle have kept them competitive in their two games. I think they will win games against lesser sides, but beating Somerset looks a tall order. Somerset won their only game and look a quality batting side. They bat deep, with bowlers such as Sams, Goldworthy, and Overton all capable of good knocks. I see Glamorgan struggling to restrict them.
18:30 Kent vs Essex T20
Kent
Win Match
50 WIN
@-192
Lose
-50
Kent have won both games and last time chased down 197 with ease. They only lost three wickets in the chase, with all of the top five contributing. Essex look toothless in attack, so I can see Kent getting a sizeable score in this one and coming out on top.
18:30 Lancashire vs Leicestershire T20
Lancashire
Win Match
50 WIN
@-161
Lose
-50
It's a worrying start for Leicestershire, with them losing both games, including an 85-point thrashing by Derbyshire last time. The fact Derbyshire have lost their other two games hardly franks that form. After losing to a good Surrey side in their opener, Lancs were much stronger next time at home, beating Notts while posting a total of 208. They are looking the much stronger side.
18:00 SK Brann v Sarpsborg
Over 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
@-200
Win
25
The 23 goals scored by Brann is the third-highest total in the league. However, they find themselves down in 8th because of the 18 goals they have conceded. Sarpsborg's last four games have all gone over, so I see goals in this one.
17:30 Worcestershire vs Warwickshire T20
Warwickshire
Win Match
50 WIN
@+110
Lose
-50
Worcestershire kicked off their campaign by beating Leicestershire, but Leicestershire are looking a weak side, so I'm not overly impressed with that win. Next time, against Northants, they conceded 191 and could only make a pitiful 91 in the chase. Bears themselves aren't looking strong after being skittled out for 74 in their opener. They looked a lot better next time against a quality Somerset side, despite losing that. On paper, they look a decent enough side and a better outfit than Worcestershire.
17:00 Andorra v Iraq
Iraq (AH) -1.25
Asian Hcap

@-102
Lose+Push
-25
Andorra offer little going forward, failing to score in 12 of their last 14 games. There is 116 places between the sides, and with Iraq coming into this with a fine win over Bolivia last month, I see them winning by at least a couple.
17:00 Ludogorets Razgrad v Lokomotiv Plovdiv
Under 2.50

50 WIN
@+100
Win
50
Ludogorets Razgrad are strong favourites, but I don't see them racking up many goals in this one. They have scored just 4 times in their last 8 games, and as a consequence 7 of their last 8 have gone under. I see them doing just enough to win.
15:00 Casper Ruud vs Tommy Paul
Casper Ruud
Win Match
50 WIN
@-303
Win
17
Ruud has dominated Paul in meetings, winning the last five encounters, with his only loss being back in 2017. In his first round he looked to be going out after he dropped the fourth set 6-0 to Safiullin before battling back to win the decider. He looked exhausted after that but shook it off to beat the dangerous Medjedovic in straight sets. He is a quality clay player and is now 15-4 on clay this season. With conditions a tad cooler now, he should be even better, so I think he prevails.

Novak Djokovic must be dreaming of another Grand Slam with Alcaraz absent and Sinner going out, but he has a tough-looking game on his hands today. His preparation for this didn't go well, with him losing his only match in Rome to Prizmic. Here he dropped a set to the big-serving but limited Mpetshi Perricard and also dropped a set to Roer in a match he was expected to win 3-0 without much fuss. He faces a tougher opponent in Fonseca, who is a rising star with an excellent A game. I think he has the tools to make this a battle.

Tamara Korpatsch has come through two tricky encounters and should give a decent account of herself in this one. She is a solid clay player and looks capable of keeping within 7. Elina Svitolina made no mistake in dispatching lowly ranked Quevedo in straight sets, but prior to that she dropped sets in her previous four matches. Although she should win, Korpatsch looks up to winning the five games required if she loses 2-0.
13:30 Karen Khachanov vs Jesper De Jong
Over 38.50

@-108
Win
46
De Jong has had some terrible bad luck with the draw in his last two French Opens. In 2024 he faced Draper in round one, beat him, but then ran into Alcaraz. Although he lost, he did win a set. The following year he drew Zverev in round two. He failed to qualify for the main draw this year but got in as a lucky loser and took full advantage by dispatching clay specialist Cina for the loss of just seven games. Khachanov isn't at his best right now with a win/loss record of just 14/12. The only meeting between the pair was in February on the hard courts in Rotterdam, which Khachanov needed three sets to win. On clay, De Jong should definitely be competitive, taking this over.

Guy Mbeza has caught fire in his last two, scoring a brace against Qingdao Hainiu and then a hat-trick against Zhejiang Professional. Although Shanghai Port have become difficult to beat, they have conceded in 12 of their 14 games, so I like Mbeza's chances today.

It's Sorana Cîrstea's farewell season and she clearly intends to go out in style. She is 29-8 for the season and 12-3 on clay, including a win over Sabalenka. It was no surprise that Sierra dispatched Paolini, as Paolini isn't in great form. Cîrstea in this form is a big step up, though, and I feel she'll come up short.
11:00 Cronulla Sharks v Manly Sea Eagles
Over 45.50

Sea Eagles are a strong side this season and are averaging 36 points per away game. Sharks have picked up at home, scoring 90 points over their last two games. Last time they scored thirty points in the first half but eased up and totaled just 38. They won't have that luxury in this one, so I see the total going over 45.

Pablo Carreno Busta 4.50

@-113
Win
44
Thiago Agustin Tirante hasn't had the toughest of draws. In round one he beat Llamas Ruiz in a match that was evenly matched until Tirante won the third-set tiebreak. His opponent clearly didn't fancy a five-setter and threw in the towel, losing the next set 6-0. Tirante then faced Davidovich Fokina, who is probably the most erratic player around, so that win means little. He faces a tough competitor in Carreno Busta, who thrives on clay. Carreno Busta upset big-serving Lehe?ka in round one 3-0, and came through courtesy of Kokkinakis' retirement, so he hasn't exerted too much energy. I see him pushing Tirante all the way.
10:00 Xiyu Wang vs Yuliia Starodubtseva
Yuliia Starodubtseva
Win Match
50 WIN
@-188
Lose
-50
Starodubtseva was sensational in beating Rybakina in the previous round. Admittedly, she was helped by far too many unforced errors from Rybakina, but that was probably down to the pressure she was under. Wang has come through five rounds, but she hasn't played anyone of note and had a bye in the last round. She is capable enough, but if Starodubtseva can find the form she displayed against Rybakina, she can blow Wang away. There is always a danger of players being flat after a big upset, but I'm hoping that's not the case.
08:05 Crusaders v Hurricanes
Hurricanes 11.50
Handicap
50 WIN
@+110
Lose
-50
Quite how Hurricanes get an 11.5 start is a bit of a mystery. They top the table with just one defeat in regular time and one in extra time. Crusaders are a strong home side, but they do concede plenty of tries, conceding more points than any other side in the top eight. Against a fine attacking side like the Hurricanes, I don't see them covering this line.

Vannes have been utterly dominant at home, winning all 15 games in the regular season. They averaged 43 points per home game, the highest average in the league. Oyonnax are a capable enough side, and although it looks a tough order to win this, they average 23 points per away game, so I think they get sufficient points to take this over.
19:15 Arthur Rinderknech vs Matteo Berrettini
Arthur Rinderknech
Win Match
50 WIN
@-109
Lose
-50
I think Berrettini was a tad fortunate to come through the first round against Fucsovics. Fucsovics won the first set and was the better player in the second but failed to take his break-point chances and ended up losing the set 7-5 by losing the one break point against him. He then wilted badly in the heat, while Berrettini, to be fair, showed fine fitness levels. Rinderknech will be a much tougher ask. He seemed unfazed by the heat, and his serve is working incredibly well, making it tough for Berrettini to break him. Berrettini has struggled against the better players in the past year, and the Frenchman certainly falls into that bracket.

Chrobry G?ogów are a strong home side, whereas ?KS ?ód? have won just 6 of their 17 away games. Chrobry G?ogów won 3-1 at ?ód? in February when they last met, so look at the bet with a start.

@+220
Lose
-50
To be honest, I thought Felix Auger-Aliassime might have gone out at the first hurdle when drawn against the tricky Altmaier in round one. However, he fought well to come from 2-1 down on sets to win in a tiebreak. I think the fast clay conditions certainly helped him, but the courts should be slower today. Burruchaga is an out-and-out clay player who has over 180 wins on the surface since 2022 and can take advantage of Auger-Aliassime's shortcomings.

Matteo Arnaldi

75
Arnaldi has won 8 of his last 9 clay matches, with the only loss being to rising star Jodar. It's not that he's had easy matches, as he's beaten De Minaur, Munar, Hurkacz, Borges, and Cerúndolo ??" all very capable players. Tsitsipas isn't the force he was and lost three of his last four matches. Arnaldi is the in-form player of the two, so he looks an attractive bet at 2.50.

Raphael Collignon

@+175

88
Raphael Collignon was ranked 353 in 2023 but has now shot up to 62 in the rankings. This year he has an 11??"2 win??"loss record and isn't fazed by playing the big names, holding a 4??"3 winning record against top-20 players in the past year. I'm not fully convinced by Shelton on clay, although to be fair he has done well this year. Shelton does have a reputation for raising his game at the majors, but against top-60 players his record is mediocre, winning 12 of his 23 games. I can see a potential upset in this one.

Luciano Darderi is having a great clay season with a 17-8 win/loss record, but it's the losses that interest me more. He's shown little stomach for a fight in recent losses, with him winning just 5 games against Cerúndolo, 3 against De Minaur, and 2 against Ruud. Comesana is a solid clay player who beat Darderi in their only meeting on clay. If he gets a decent start, he can cause an upset.

Frances Tiafoe

@+125
Win
62
Hubert Hurkacz has a powerful serve and also likes to come to the net. Tiafoe, by contrast, will play from the baseline all day and grind away. Hurkacz's recent match with Arnaldi was quite revealing, as Arnaldi got into Hurkacz's serve, winning 50% of his first serves. Despite Hurkacz still dominating at the net, Arnaldi won in straight sets. The way to win is clear for Tiafoe: just get the serve back and try to prevent the opponent from rushing the net, and the match can be his.

-50
The money has come for Kopriva, and it's not hard to see why. Landaluce limped over the line in his opener, not playing well towards the end. His opponent wasn't either. Landaluce suffered wrist discomfort in the final two sets but shook it off as a mere minor inconvenience. I'm not so sure, as his errors increased late on, and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want another gruelling five-setter. He may have to against Kopriva, who also needed five sets against Moutet. Kopriva was just as strong at the finish as at the start. I give him a clear edge.

Jannik Sinner failed to cover this handicap in his opener, beating Tabur 6-1, 6-3, 6-4. He now faces a tougher opponent in Cerúndolo, who is solid on clay, having just won the title in Bordeaux. He shouldn't trouble Sinner for the win, but in the midday heat Sinner won't want to exert too much effort. I can see him easing down a tad when in command and just doing enough.

-50
Faria has an impressive 25-11 win/loss record on clay this year, although his wins have almost exclusively been at Challenger level or qualifiers. Struff looks a step up on most of the players he has beaten. Struff upset Bublik in round one, which was an impressive result. Bublik can be erratic, but he was clearly giving it everything; it's just that Struff was that little bit better, really making the most of second serves when they came along. I think he can cause Faria all sorts of problems and win this.

-50
Walton normally avoids the clay, which is strange considering how well he played on it when upsetting Medvedev in round 1. He is rewarded with a very winnable-looking match against Svajda. Svajda has an awful record on clay. Prior to upsetting Popyrin in the last round, he had won just 8 of his 32 lifetime matches on the surface. I think the sun-baked fast courts helped him beat Popyrin, but against a battler like Walton I see him coming up short.
