Hillerito

4 wins in the last 5 runs and outstanding of late. No reason to think at this level it will not be able to add another win to what's looking like a very impressive form line.
21:50 Damon Heta vs Stefan Bellmont

Damon Heta

Win Match 2-way

@1.30

Open

Heta looks great value here. He is ranked nearly 100 places above SB and has won both of the last two meetings by 6-4 and 6-1, so expect another win here for him.
21:45 21:45 Fair Grounds

Heart Headed

Daily Racing

Looks a solid call here. With the trainer and jockey combo enjoying a good success rate, and the track and trip looking set to suit, I would expect it to go very close here.

21:25 LV Raiders @ HOU Texans

HOU Texans

Money Line

50 WIN

@1.08

Win

The Texans will smash the Raiders. There is no reason to think the Raiders, who have been awful all season, will even manage to score any points, never mind enough to beat the Texans, as the Texans' defense is the best around.

HOU Texans - HOU Texans

Double Result

50 WIN

@1.37

Win

19

The Texans are in great form, having won 5 of the last 5 and now pushing towards the playoffs in great form. The Raiders are quite the opposite, as they are tanking in the hope of picking up the first draft pick next year.

Nico is the key man for Stroud and has been electric this season and red-hot of late. He will look certain to add to his tally of 6 TDs already this season.

No shock in store here as 'Luke the Nuke' will progress and looks to build on an already brilliant career. He has not tasted defeat in the last 15 games.

Gerwyn Price

Win Match 2-way

50 WIN

@1.14

Open

GP with 4 wins in his last 5 games and looks set to go well in the event. He loves the Ally Pally and looked in great shape with a solid 3-0 set win in his earlier game.

Aston Villa

I'll take Villa here, who are in cracking form and have scored goals aplenty in their last few games. They've won five on the spin and scored at least two in the last four games.

Got to take the overs here, as Man Utd hit and concede on average nearly 2 per game. With Villa also scoring nearly 2 per game, this points the goals to the overs line in this one for me.

Looking at the scoring, both of these have been hitting the net with good averages. In the last five games, Man Utd away from home have hit a minimum of two goals per game, and Villa have scored at least two in their last four games. Goals on offer here for me.

@46.00

-50

Hitting some serious form of late and with 8 consecutive top-50 finishes and a T8 only 2 events ago, with a couple of rounds in the 60s. Hoping another good start here should give a good shout.

David Ravetto

1st Round Leader

25 EW

@76.00

Lose

-50

Has been pretty solid of late without really troubling the top positions. With a good, solid start last week and also a good 69 in the Nedbank, I just think the value for a good early low round is a good call.

Pieter Moolman

1st Round Leader

25 EW

@91.00

Lose

-50

Moolman has constantly been in the top 10 of his events over the last few months. That now totals eight top-10s over the last six months, with a blistering start at the recent Stella Artois.

Todd Clements

1st Round Leader

25 EW

@67.00

Lose

-50

Hasn't fired in the last three weeks, but prior to that he had three top-20s in a row. The Spanish Open was key: in the final round he shot a 66, which shows the ability he has. With the course likely to suit his game, he could be good value here.
09:20 AfrAsia Bank Mauritius Open

Davis Bryant

Top American

50 WIN

@3.20

-50

Looks to be a really good call within the US selection of players. His recent form, although not outstanding, is better than the others, so I will take a chance on him here.

15:00 Man City v West Ham

Man City

50 WIN

@1.22

City are really applying the pressure to Arsenal and can do so again today with another win over the poor West Ham, who have struggled and, away from home, are really poor.

Looking at the stats, got to take the overs here. Newcastle at home hit on average nearly 8 corners per home game, and Chelsea hit over 4 away from home. This looks a solid call.

Giulio Cesare

Outstanding form and the last run when 2nd looks a solid enough mark to improve on. With the course looking set to suit, is sure to go very close in this one.
19:45 Barrow v Cheltenham

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

Cheltenham have not had some form of late and have picked up 10 points in the last 15 available. With Barrow scoring in 3 of their last 4 home games, I think that both teams should hit the net.
19:45 Cambridge Utd v Accrington Stanley

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

Only 7 points between these two teams. Both are scoring just over 1 per game on average. Lately, both have scored in 4 of their last 5 matches.
19:45 Crewe v Bristol Rovers

Crewe

Rovers have just sacked their manager, and I'm hoping the new man hasn't had enough time to settle yet. Crewe had a good win latest, which was 4-1 away from home. I think they will come home and win again.
19:29 6:30 Dundalk

Pretty Omagh Girl

Daily Racing

Course and distance. 2nd a couple of weeks ago and was unlucky at the end on that occasion, so now likely fitter. Looks set to improve on that and should take all the beating here.
19:15 19:15 Fair Grounds

Thebabeslayer

Daily Racing

The standout selection in the field, with easily the most experience and arguably the best jockey on board, and the trainer in decent enough form, looks a solid call in this one.
19:00 Cambuur Leeuwarden v Maastricht

Cambuur Leeuwarden

CL are 2nd in the league and are 22 points in front of Maas. Away from home, Maas have lost 3 of the last 4 games and netted only 2 goals in those games.

Looking for the value here. Carcassonne have lost all of their last five games and sit bottom of the league standings. Soyaux Angoulême have won three of their last four, and those are the away-win stats. I think they are great value here.

Like the chances of SA outright. With this start, I really think they should take the honours, looking at the form of both and the league standings, where SA are a total of 17 points in front.

India have had the better of the exchanges of late, and with 3 wins in the last 4 meetings, I think they should be able to win here. They won by 7 wickets in the last match.

South Africa W

@1.04

The South African women's team are in great form, having won all of their last four games. Ireland have been on the wrong end of each of those results. With some really easy wins, including a 7-wicket victory, they should ease through again here.

Crystal Palace

50 WIN

@1.22

-50

Palace look solid here and are 3 points above KuPS. Squad-wise they are much stronger, as they play in the Prem. Any game at this stage will be against a much lesser team. I think it's an easy home win here.

Palace have averaged around 2 goals per game. With a win, that will take them into the top section of the group phase. KuPS have really struggled all phase, with less than 1 goal scored per game.

NK Celje

50 WIN

@1.35

-50

Got to take Celje here, as Shelbourne have not even scored in any of their five games in the league phase so far. With a win here, Celje can move into second in the league phase, and they are unbeaten at home in the last five.

NK Celje & No (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

Shelbourne are yet to score in five games in this phase, and I just can't see them scoring here against a team that is really solid and unbeaten in the last five at home.
20:00 Rayo Vallecano v KF Drita

Rayo Vallecano

50 WIN

@1.18

Rayo should be too strong here. They are 7th in the group phase, and I fully expect them to win at home, as Drita have scored less than one per game.

Rayo Vallecano & No (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

50 WIN

@1.83

Rayo have kept three clean sheets in their last five home games. They stand above Drita in the group, and Drita away in the group have been less than convincing. It's a home win here for me.

Rayo Vallecano #3-0

50 WIN

@7.00

Win

Rayo look a solid call here. With an average 2 goals scored per game and with a win here they will have a chance to top the league. They look solid at the back, so I'll take a clear win.

Aberdeen are in awful shape in the group phase. They have only 2 points from 5 games and have only 3 goals scored. They just can't have them winning this one.

With only 3 goals in 5 games in the group phase so far, and Sparta have conceded only 3 goals in their group games, I think they can win with a clean sheet here.

Sparta Prague #2-0

@6.50

Sparta just don't concede goals as they concede less than 1 per game, and Aberdeen have struggled all the way through this phase. So it's a home win here for me.

Strasbourg look solid here and should add another win, as they already top the league phase and, with only 4 goals conceded, I think they'll win again with a clean sheet.

The key here could be the early pace. The red jacket has pace and should be able to clear the field early. That's a chance to avoid any likely trouble, and on the clock should be very close.
