20:00 Millwall v Cardiff
Cardiff
50 WIN
@3.90
Lose
-50
Now may be a good time to play Millwall as that side have lost their last 2 home games and have not won in 5. They face a Cardiff side that are unbeaten in 5 and come into this game off the back of a 3-0 win over Swansea. Millwall average just 1 goal per game and that will only be good enough for a draw at best in this game.
Callum Robinson
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
@10.00
Lose
-50
Robinson is in joint 4th place in the league's top scorer table with 10 goals. That is pretty impressive considering that Cardiff are down in 20th place in the table. Cardiff are in a good run of form right now and could well win this game as Millwall have lost 3 of their last 6 games and won just once in that run.
19:45 Derby v Sunderland
Wilson Isidor
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
@7.00
Lose
-50
With Mayenda providing a lot of good opportunities for their strikers, I will go for Sunderland's Isidor to get on the end of one of his crosses and be the first goal scorer. The side is in good form with 3 wins and a draw from their last 5 games, and they should get plenty of opportunities against a Derby side that is struggling toward the foot of the table.
19:45 Swansea v Sheff Utd
Sheff Utd
50 WIN
@2.62
Win
81
Swansea's form over the last month has been unimpressive. They were hammered 4-0 by 22nd placed Portsmouth and 3-0 by 20th placed Cardiff. They only beat 23rd placed Luton 2-1 and will have to do a lot better than that to beat 2nd placed Sheffield. That will be tough against a side that has won its last 2 games and are very low conceders of goals.
Harrison Burrows
First Goalscorer
50 WIN
@21.00
Lose
-50
Burrows may be a left back, but he seems to play like a wing back and was the hero in Sheffield's 2-0 win over Norwich. He took a penalty that day, and if a penalty comes Sheffield's way, he may well be chosen to take that as well.

20:00 Dundee v Dundee Utd
Draw
50 WIN
@3.40
Lose
-50
A local derby that looks like a draw to me. United are in better form but have scored just 31 goals from 23 games, whereas Dundee have scored 7 more. United have a solid defense but do concede at around 1 goal per game. If the home side can nick a goal, then the draw is likely.
16:18 4:18 Oxford
Magical Pippa
Daily Races
50 WIN
@10.00
Lose
-50
A clear run is a lot to ask in this race, but there is no doubt that Magical Pippa can win this race should it manage to get one. The dog has shot up from A5 to A1 in short order and has won in A2 already.

14:00 Nottm Forest v Southampton
Nottm Forest
50 WIN
@1.40
Win
20
Southampton held Man United for a long time in their last game but were eventually beaten 3-1. On all known form this season, there seems little likelihood that they can get anything from their trip to Notts Forest. Forest are 3rd in the Premiership after a run of 5 wins in a row. They should be too strong for Southampton.
12:00 Falkirk v Raith
Falkirk
50 WIN
@1.48
Lose
-50
Falkirk are top of their division, 5 places above Raith. They have scored 37 goals to Raith's 19 and have lost just 3 times to Raith's 9. A home win looks likely to me.
12:00 Leeds v Sheff Wed
Leeds
50 WIN
@1.36
Win
18
Leeds will have to be careful in this game as Sheffield have been scoring goals lately. Leeds are the division's top scorers and have the 3rd best defense, so they really should be winning this game. Sheffield score and concede at around 1.5 per game and may well get a goal in this game. Even so, I expect Leeds to get their average of 2 and win.

Rapido Camilla
Daily Races
50 WIN
@4.50
Lose
-50
Favourite the last 3 times and 2nd 3 times does put me off a little, but the support seems justified if you look at the dog's end times in the grade. The dog was an A6 winner back in October last year and does seem to be coming back to some sort of form judged on its last few runs.
10:48 10:48 Doncaster
High Beam Hickey
Daily Races
50 WIN
@3.25
Lose
-50
If the run doesn't come too soon, then Highbeam Hickey should have a good chance of winning this race. The dog has been in good form with a win and 4 x 2nds from its last 5 races. Its end times are a match for any of its rivals.
10:32 10:32 Doncaster
Mineola Swift
Daily Races
50 WIN
@3.50
Lose
-50
Mineola Swift has been consistent without winning. It has a good chance to break that run today as it has a fair chance of leading the pack to the turn. It won a few times in the grade in December.

Bacon Roll
Daily Races
50 WIN
@1.53
Lose
-50
Bacon Roll has won 9 and finished 2nd 3 times in its last 12 races at the track and in open class. It is fast from the boxes and runs under 24 seconds consistently. Nothing in the race is near its latest 23.67 time.
20:19 8:19 Romford
New Destiny
Daily Races
50 WIN
@1.44
Lose
-50
New Destiny has the best times of any of the dogs in this race. It is usually fast enough from the traps to get the lead by or just after the first bend and has a great winning record at the track. It looks as though it only has trap 6 to worry about from the traps, and if it beats that dog to the turn, it should win.
20:00 Burnley v Sunderland
Draw
50 WIN
@3.30
Win
115
Two sides in good form with Burnley in 2nd place and Sunderland in 4th. Both sides are comparatively low goal scorers with an average of around 1.3 per game. Burnley have only conceded 9 goals so far from 26 games, and that is a division low. Sunderland have conceded 22, but that is also under 1 per game. The stats say draw.
Draw #1-1
50 WIN
@6.50
Lose
-50
Burnley have not conceded a goal in their last 4 games while scoring just 3. Sunderland have scored 7 over their last 5 games but conceded 5. That should make for a tight game again with goals at a premium. 0-0 is possible, but the odds suggest that there will be at least 1 goal in this game and I fancy there will be 2.

20:00 Man Utd v Southampton
Man Utd
50 WIN
@1.30
Win
15
United's new manager seems to have got his side playing the way he wants, and they have been transformed, judged by their last two games. They drew at Liverpool and should have won that game, then won away at Arsenal despite being a man down for a long time. They should beat Southampton.
18:42 6:42 Hove
Never Say No
Daily Races
50 WIN
@1.67
Win
34
Much will depend on Never Say No getting a decent break and an untroubled run. The dog has ridden trouble the last 3 races it has run at the track, and that has seen it costing its backers. It still recovered to finish 2nd in those races, which shows me a dog still in form. I will take a chance.
13:00 Neil Robertson v Shaun Murphy
Neil Robertson
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.67
Lose
-50
Robertson has been playing well to get this far and is in good enough form to beat Murphy in this match. Robertson beat the ever-competitive John Higgins in a close match, and that will stand him in good stead for this match.
Neil Robertson -1.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@2.10
Lose
-50
Murphy was not quite on his game in his latest win and let 3 frames slip against a weaker opponent. He seemed a bit undercooked to me after his recent break, and I prefer to chance Robertson to concede that start.
Neil Robertson to win 6-3
Frame Betting
50 WIN
@6.50
Lose
-50
Robertson had to dig deep to beat the consistent John Higgins in his latest win, and he should have gained a lot of confidence from that win. Murphy dropped 3 frames in his last match, and I cannot see him having the game right now to get more than a few frames against Robertson.

20:00 Arsenal v Tottenham
Arsenal
50 WIN
@1.40
Win
20
Spurs' form has been poor for a while now, and they even needed extra time to beat lowly Tamworth in the cup. That may have been a weakened Spurs side, but even so, it showed that they are struggling right now. Arsenal come into this game off the back of a cup loss that they really should have won. I fancy they will want to put that behind them and get back to winning to keep them in the title race.
20:00 Rangers v Aberdeen
Rangers #2-0
50 WIN
@7.50
Lose
-50
Aberdeen's miserable run of form continues. They have lost 4 of their last 5 games and scored just 1 goal over those 5 games. They have not been conceding too many in that run and may be able to limit Rangers' winning margin. 2-0 or 3-0 seems likely. I will go for 2-0 just because Aberdeen have only conceded more than 2 goals in one of those last 5 games and 1 per game overall.
19:45 Blackburn v Portsmouth
Draw #1-1
50 WIN
@7.50
Lose
-50
Blackburn have held their own against some of the big boys in this division over the last few weeks and are due a win. That may be difficult though, as they are just not scoring enough goals. They average 1 per game and face a Portsmouth side that does the same. With Portsmouth having scored 9 goals over their last 5 games, they may well be able to get a goal and draw this game.
19:30 Everton v Aston Villa
Aston Villa #2-1
50 WIN
@9.00
Lose
-50
Even with a new manager in charge, it will be hard for Everton to start scoring goals. If he tinkers with the side too much, he may well find that they will be too open. I expect an Everton side that will play more or less the same as Dyche had them playing, with a little more focus on attack. That should allow Villa to get chances.
19:30 Newcastle v Wolverhampton
Newcastle
50 WIN
@1.36
Win
18
Wolves' short-lived form revival took a hit when they lost 3-0 at home to Nottingham Forest in their last game. It won't get any easier against an in-form Newcastle side that have won their last 5 games.
Newcastle #2-1
50 WIN
@8.00
Lose
-50
Newcastle conceded a goal to a much lower-ranked side in their cup game last week and may do so again against a Wolves side that has improved a little under their new manager. I still expect the home side to carry on the good form they have been showing and to win this game.
19:00 Luca Brecel v Chris Wakelin
Luca Brecel
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.67
Win
34
Brecel will need to get back to the form he was in last year if he is to win this match. He may well be able to do that though, as Wakelin is a one-dimensional player that struggles against the very top players.
Chris Wakelin 1.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@1.73
Lose
-50
On his form from a year ago, Brecel would walk this match, but he has not been in as good form. I will go for Wakelin to win with the start, even though I think he will lose the match at evens.
Luca Brecel to win 6-4
Frame Betting
50 WIN
@6.00
Lose
-50
With Brecel not being in great form in the latter part of last year and coming back from a break, he may be a little rusty in this match. In that case, he may shed a few frames before getting his act together. 6-3 or 6-4 is my guess for the result.

Karma Dairy makes its debut for the Willie Mullins stable after being bought in from France. The horse had 2 runs in France where it ran 2nd on its last start in a conditions hurdle race. The stable has had plenty of time to work with the horse and it seems to have been found a winnable race to make its stable debut.

19:45 Cardiff v Watford
Draw #1-1
50 WIN
@6.50
Win
275
Cardiff drew their last 2 league games 1-1 and face a Watford side they beat 2-1 away from home. Cardiff average 1 goal per game so far, and Watford have scored in all their last 5 games. The stats suggest that this game will be a low scoring one with 1 goal possibly being enough to win it. I will go 1-1 and stick with the stats.
19:45 Plymouth v Oxford Utd
Draw #1-1
50 WIN
@6.50
Win
275
Both sides come into this game off the back of cup games, so legs will be tired. They both average 1 goal per game and both concede at more than that. With Oxford winning the home fixture between these two sides 2-0, I can see a tight game with a low score.

Bramble Linton clocked 17.74 when it won an OR2 race at the track a few runs ago. It is a fast breaker that should be able to get an early lead in this race, and if it does, then there is not a dog in the race that can match that sub-18 second time.

If Murphy comes back in a good frame of mind, then he may well be able to give the start away in this match. Wilson has been on the go for a while and may be a bit jaded right now.

I am hoping that the short break that Murphy has had will bring him back refreshed. With Wilson having a pretty good record against Murphy, I will go for a Murphy win by a 2-frame margin, just in case Murphy takes time to get going.
16:30 Southampton v Swansea
Southampton

@1.85

As bad as Southampton have been in the league, they are still a Premiership side. They will want to save their supporters' blushes in this game and are sure to field a full-strength side. They should be able to win this game.

With the 2 trap vacant, there should be plenty of elbow room for Droopys Plunge to get away in its usual quick fashion. The dog has won its last 2 races at the track in good times and seems only to have to get away quick and clean to win again.

Man United were excellent against Liverpool and could so easily have won that game. The new manager is starting to have an effect on their play, and they may well be able to surprise Arsenal in this game. Arsenal have been far from convincing in recent games, and their goals from open play are very low compared to other Premiership sides.
15:00 Crystal Palace v Stockport
Crystal Palace
50 WIN
@1.29
Win
14
Palace have just one chance of a trophy this season in my book, and I am sure they will field a strong side in this game. They usually come good late in the season and have started to show signs of that in recent games. They should be able to win this game.
Crystal Palace #2-0
50 WIN
@6.50
Lose
-50
Palace seem able to score well enough and should get at least 1 goal in this home game. I fancy they will manage 2 though, as Stockport concede at around 1.5 per game. I will take a chance that the Premiership side will be able to keep a clean sheet, even though Stockport have been averaging more than 1 goal per game in the league.
15:00 Newcastle v Bromley
Newcastle #2-0
50 WIN
@8.50
Lose
-50
Newcastle never seem to run away with games, and they average under 2 goals per game. They do not concede many, with just 22 conceded from 20 games. Bromley concede at around 1.5 per game but have been in fair form. The stats suggest a win for Newcastle by 2-0 or 3-0. I will go for 2-0 as Newcastle seem to shut up shop when they are leading, and they are great at defending a lead.

Willie Mullins saddles the first two in the betting, but stable jockey Paul Townend has chosen Salvator Mundi as his ride. The horse has the highest RPR and won as it liked last time out. That win was after the horse was pitched into the Triumph Hurdle on its first run for the stable. It ran with credit that day and showed that it is a top-class animal.

Lecky Watson is a Grade 1 placed horse in bumpers and a hurdle winner. The horse took the fences with a good win last time out and beat a solid yardstick in that race. It should get an easy lead in today's race, and if it jumps soundly, it should go close to winning.
