14:00 Chelsea v Crystal Palace
Chelsea
50 WIN
@1.65
Lose
-50
Chelsea enters this season with an incredible boost from the last few months, which have seen them win the Conference League, qualify for next season's Champions League, and win the Club World Cup. All of this should be enough to beat a worthy and successful Crystal Palace in their home opener of the 2025/26 Premier League season

17:30 Wolverhampton v Man City
Man City
50 WIN
@1.50
Win
25
Manchester City are coming into this league debut with a good feeling, having won the post-Club World Cup friendly played in Palermo with a 0-3 result. While in the four friendlies played so far, Wolverhampton have lost three times and drawn once. Even though the Citizens are away from home, they can win today.
15:00 Brighton v Fulham
Fulham
50 WIN
@3.90
Lose
-50
Two teams that have had a good pre-season with many goals scored and no games lost face each other. Brighton, however, have lost important players such as Joao Pedro, Adingra, and Estupinan, while the guests have kept a Jimenez who already seems to be in good form, which makes me think of a victory for the guests.
Raul Jimenez

Raul Jimenez is fresh from the Gold Cup with Mexico but is ready to be the attacking point of his team and already scored in the friendly win against Eintracht Frankfurt. He can score at any time today.
15:00 Bristol City v Charlton
Bristol City
50 WIN
@1.91
Lose
-50
Bristol City have made an excellent start. After a fantastic 4-1 victory over Sheffield United on the opening day, Bristol City have booked their place in the next round of the Carabao Cup with a home win against Milton Keynes. The Robins are feeling confident. Scoring four goals away to a team in contention for promotion is not a common occurrence. I believe they will win again today.
15:00 Cardiff v Rotherham
Cardiff
50 WIN
@1.70
Win
35
Cardiff has been relegated from the Championship and has all it takes to try and get back there straight away. With 1 win and 1 draw in their first two games, they are heading in the right direction, but consistency is needed and today's match against Rotherham is an absolute must-win.
15:00 Preston v Leicester
Leicester
50 WIN
@2.05
Lose
-50
While Leicester City could have done better in the EFL Cup, it's important to remember that they are the favorites on paper before this match begins. They have a solid attack and a psychological advantage over today's opponent. To stay top, the Foxes know that away wins are essential. A tough win against a strong Preston North End side would send a clear message to the league.
15:00 Sunderland v West Ham
West Ham
50 WIN
@2.25
Lose
-50
West Ham are hoping to see the fruits of last season's hard work bear fruit, with the Hammers seemingly approaching their usual level of competitiveness in recent years. Against a newly promoted Sunderland side, who have struggled in recent friendlies (Sunderland have lost five of their last six preseason games), West Ham have a chance to get off to a strong start.
15:00 Swansea v Sheff Utd
Draw
50 WIN
@3.25
Lose
-50
The Blades enter this second matchday with two defeats in the space of four days. To avoid a red-carded week, Ruben Selles's team must be able to react on the pitch against Swansea. It won't be easy away, however, and I expect no more than a draw for the visitors.
15:00 Tottenham v Burnley
Tottenham
50 WIN
@1.50
Win
25
Tottenham come from the European Super Cup final in Udine with some disappointment to overcome, but also with the knowledge that they made a great impression against the European champions. Their Premier League debut, on paper, isn't a daunting one. Newly promoted Burnley arrive in London having lost their last friendlies against Lazio, Stoke, and Warrington Rynalds. Therefore, I believe in a winning debut for the Spurs.
12:30 Aston Villa v Newcastle
Aston Villa
50 WIN
@2.25
Lose
-50
Aston Villa and Newcastle therefore start from the same points in the table as last year which, beyond the decisive goal difference, reflect the same strength, that of two teams of notable value. Based on the pre-season, the Villans are the ones who have had better results, while Newcastle still seems to be affected by the lack of their attacking key player (Isak), so I believe that Aston Villa will win this match.
Ollie Watkins
Anytime Goalscorer
50 WIN
@2.30
Lose
-50
Ollie Watkins has always scored at Villa Park against Newcastle in the last 4 seasons. Therefore, more than ever, as the main reference for the hosts, he could score again today at any time.
12:30 Wrexham v West Brom
Draw
50 WIN
@3.20
Lose
-50
West Bromwich Albion are likely to face a tough match today. It's important to remember that West Bromwich Albion have been waiting for an away win for nine months, while Wrexham have a five-two record in their last seven home games. Wrexham have scored 13 goals in this run, so a draw between these two teams is likely.

20:00 Liverpool v Bournemouth
Liverpool
50 WIN
@1.30
Win
15
Liverpool begin their title defense at Anfield, which, as is often the case with the Reds, was a nearly impregnable fortress last year. They feature several new faces, all of them of great quality (Milos Kerkez, Florian Wirtz, and Hugo Ekitiké), and the usual stars, including Alisson, Van Dijk, and Salah. The Reds will try to defeat a Bournemouth side that overhauled its defense this summer and will presumably need to settle in during the first few games of 2025/26. My prediction, therefore, is for Liverpool to win.
Mohamed Salah
Anytime Goalscorer
50 WIN
@1.75
Win
38
All eyes will be on last season's top scorer, Mohamed Salah, who is doing incredibly well at the start of the season: in fact, no player has registered more goals (9) than him in the opening weekend of the Premier League, and I believe he can score again today.
20:00 Wigan v Hull KR

Clash between the first and second in the table, who are separated by 4 points. Wigan (who are second) have already beaten Hull KR in the last 4 H2H, including the one this season (28-12). So, I think they can win again.

We're likely to witness one of the most technically demanding matches of this WTA Cincinnati, and Sabalenka isn't guaranteed to win comfortably. Indeed, based on recent results and previous matches, it's highly likely the match will be long and involve many games. This has happened in all recent head-to-head clashes between the Belarusian and Kazakh Elena Rybakina, including the last one in Berlin.
16:00 Iga Swiatek vs Anna Kalinskaya
Iga Swiatek
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.18
Win
9
Swiatek is looking for her first title in the American Masters 1000, where she has never managed to make her mark so far. But this time, the draw seems to be on her side, and also for this reason, the motivation of the twenty-four-year-old is very high. Swiatek lost the only time she played against Kalinskaya, in the 2024 edition of the WTA Dubai. But she is still definitely a cut above the Russian, and this time she appears really determined. The Polish player has won 12 of the last 14 matches, and in 10 of them, she has not conceded a set. I think she will win again today.
11:00 Sydney Roosters v Canterbury Bulldogs
Sydney Roosters

Despite the different positions in the table, Sydney Roosters 9th and Canterbury Bulldogs 3rd, this match will be very balanced. The home team is in great form, and with James Tedesco and Sam Walker in such great form, they can also cause problems for the Bulldogs.

New Zealand Warriors are in a difficult moment. After 3 consecutive defeats, they have dropped to 5th place. St George/Illawarra Dragons, on the other hand, even if they are further down the table, are in better form. It is always difficult to beat them. Therefore, I believe that they can take advantage of this moment of crisis for the home team.

21:30 Ben Shelton vs Jiri Lehecka
Ben Shelton
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.75
Win
38
In my opinion, Ben Shelton's physical and mental condition can definitely make the difference right now. He also has the advantage of having the support of his fans. He's in a great state after triumphing in Toronto and is looking for his ninth straight victory. The American player is constantly improving and hasn't shown any signs of weakness in recent weeks, so I believe he can win and qualify for the quarterfinals.
20:00 Jannik Sinner vs Felix Auger Aliassime
Jannik Sinner
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.14
Win
7
Sinner has looked in great form again and dominated all his opponents this week. He's just too far ahead of his opponent on hard courts. Sinner is incredibly motivated to defend his title and prepare for the US Open, and he'll also be eager for revenge after the negative precedents that saw Auger-Aliassime win three times. This time, there's no sign that things can go that way again, and I'm backing Sinner.
20:00 Warrington v Catalan Dragons
Warrington
To Win
50 WIN
@1.17

Both teams are not in a good moment, the home team comes from three consecutive defeats, while the guests come from 6 consecutive defeats, with only one victory in the last 14 games, therefore I believe that Warrington will win even more widely than it already did (24-20) on 20.07.2025

It's not easy to try to predict how a match that promises to be so close will unfold. Paolini has more quality but is certainly not in her best form, while Krejcikova isn't at the Italian's level but is in great form. In my opinion, it could be a hard-fought and even long match, as has always been the case for the Czech player so far in her Cincinnati campaign. Even in their last head-to-head meeting, last year at Wimbledon, the match went to a third set.
16:00 Lucia Bronzetti vs Coco Gauff
Coco Gauff
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.10
Win
5
Bronzetti has a real challenge ahead of her against Coco Gauff, a player who is undoubtedly one of the best in the world. Furthermore, in the two head-to-head matches they've already played in their career, in 2019 at Saint-Gaudens and in 2024 at Indian Wells, Gauff has always won comfortably in straight sets. Considering that the American is rested and the Italian is coming off a long and hard-fought match, I believe Gauff can prevail quite comfortably.

Both teams have lost important players compared to last year. Leicester have lost club legends Jamie Vardy, Wilfred Ndidi, and Conor Coady, and Sheff Wed have lost Djeidi Gassama, Josh Windass, and Michael Smith. However, while Leicester still have some excellent players (Bilal El Khannouss, Jordan Ayew, Stephy Mavididi, and Abdul Fatawu), the visitors have not replaced those who have left properly. The odds of the match are there to show it, so I think Leicester will win easily.

Francisco Comesana advanced to the first round by defeating Spaniard Jaume Munar 6-4, Luciano Darderi is in high spirits at this Cincinnati Masters 1000, fresh from two clay-court victories. Darderi first won the ATP 250 tournament in Bastad, Sweden, before immediately repeating his success in Umag, Croatia. If he can maintain his form on the Cincinnati hard courts, he can win even if it's not his favorite surface.

The two players have faced each other three times before, with Sakkari leading 2-1 in their previous meetings, although Paolini won their only meeting on hard court last year in Dubai. The match looks fairly even, and both have played very long matches recently, so I expect it to be a close match with plenty of games.

Lehecka reached the third round here last year and hopes to put in another strong performance after reaching the fourth round at last week's Canadian Open. Tristan Boyer is 111th in the live rankings, 85 spots below Lehecka, and has yet to advance past the second round of an ATP Tour tournament in 2025. Lehecka has won an ATP Tour tournament on hard courts this year, so I see him as a clear favorite.

The next meeting will be the third between Jannik Sinner and Daniel Galan. The balance favors the Italian, who has won both meetings, the first in 2021 in the Davis Cup Round Robin on hard court (7-5, 6-0), while the second meeting is more recent and dates back to Wimbledon 2023, when Sinner outclassed the Colombian in the round of 16 7-6, 6-4, 6-3. It's difficult to go against Sinner, but with a really high line I'll go with the handicap.
12:30 Southampton v Wrexham
Southampton

@1.70
Win

The experience factor can certainly play in Southampton's favor, as they will make their debut in front of their home fans and a sold-out St. Mary's. Wrexham, who brilliantly achieved their third consecutive promotion, recorded their best results at home last season in League One, while proving more beatable away from home. The Saints' good preseason performances lead me to predict a Southampton victory.

Seth Lugo (8-5, 3.06 ERA) will start for KC today. He is 1-2, 3.53 ERA in 8 career games against Minnesota, which today features Joe Ryan (10-5, 2.83), one of the best in the Twins' rotation. The two faced each other last May in KC, in the Twins' 4-0 win with Ryan untouchable in 7 innings (0 runs, walks, and 2 hits allowed) while Lugo finished 5.2 IP with 2 runs allowed. I believe the Twins can win again.

Kelly is 2-1, 2.73 ERA in 5 career games against Philadelphia, who will respond with the excellent Cristopher Sanchez (10-3, 2.40 ERA), who has averaged a 1.66 ERA in his last 5 starts, pitching 7.1 innings.

The ATP 1000 Toronto final is decidedly unexpected compared to the lead-up. The title will be fought between Karen Khachanov and Ben Shelton, who defied the odds in their respective semifinals. Shelton has confirmed his impressive form and, after dominating Alex De Minaur in the quarterfinals, also convincingly defeated compatriot Taylor Fritz. I'm confident he'll be the man to win the National Bank Open.

This is a divisional series that has seen one win each so far, following yesterday's 10-6 Padres, who are 8-2 in their last 10 games and are generating a lot of hype after some excellent market moves. Meanwhile, the Diamondbacks are 3-7 in their last 10 games and have been disappointing this season, having sold more players at the trade deadline than they did in reinforcements, in a season that is heading towards a major disappointment. The season's matchups have been evenly matched so far, with Arizona leading 5-4 over San Diego, who are hoping to close out this series with a win and even the season's score.

It will be an all-American semifinal on the fastest hard court of the season here in Toronto. Taylor Fritz eliminated Andrey Rublev 6-3, 7-6 with 20 aces. For Fritz, it is the 19th victory in the last 22 matches and, above all, the seventh semifinal at the 1000 level of his career. Ben Shelton defeated Alex de Minaur 6-3, 6-4, and for him, it is the first 1000 semifinal of his career and also the first victory with a top 10 player since the Basel tournament in 2024 (when he eliminated number 7 Rublev in the quarterfinals). The only previous victory was won in Indian Wells by Fritz in 2023, and with the serve he is showing at the moment, I believe he will win again.

The Brewers have won their first two games and are 8-1 in their last nine, while the Atlanta Braves (3-7 in their last ten) continue to struggle. Atlanta hopes to bounce back today, starting with one of their best, Spencer Strider (14-5, 3.74 ERA), but they will be put to the test today by Milwaukee's offense, which continues to grind out runs. They will pitch with Jose Quintana (16-8, 3.52 ERA), who has won three of the last four starts for the Brewers. In my opinion, the Brewers can still win.

The German, number 3 in the world, eliminated defending champion Alexei Popyrin in the last round, and I believe he can also beat Khachanov.

He is at his best at home (3.66 ERA) compared to his away performance (4.60 ERA). The Yankees respond with Carlos Rodon (11-7, 3.34 ERA) who is not having a great run as he has had a 4.82 ERA in his last 5 starts, with 18 runs allowed in 28 innings. The Rangers are coming off a 5-game losing streak, while the Rangers at home have won 12 of their last 13 games, so I find value in the Rangers' odds.
