22:30 Ceara v Flamengo
Flamengo
50 WIN
@1.95
Lose
-50
Flamengo are top of the Brazilian Serie A and are a confident choice to beat Ceara. Ceara have one win in their last four games and are 15 points behind my selection in the standings. Flamengo have the best defensive record in this league. At home, Ceara have won two of their last six home fixtures and have scored only three goals in total in those six matches.
19:00 Andrey Rublev vs Alejandro Davidovich Fokina
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.80
Void
0
Davidovich Fokina has been the subject of strong market support to beat Rublev, having his price drop from 2.10 to the current 1.80. The Spanish player is having his best ever season, especially on hard courts. He comfortably beat the in-form Mensik in straight sets in the last round and has won 19 of 27 matches this year on hard courts. Semi-finalist at this event two years ago and reached the last 16 last year. Rublev's form has been inconsistent on the hard courts on the American Swing in 2025. He has struggled of late in Masters matches, winning just one match at the last five Masters. Rublev leads 5-1 in head-to-heads, but such is the fine form of Davidovich Fokina that I am predicting a win for the Spanish player.
19:00 Shamrock Rovers v Derry City
Shamrock Rovers
50 WIN
@2.05
Win
52
The forecast is for a Shamrock Rovers victory over Derry City. Rovers are currently top of the points table with Derry City in third place. Derry City are in good current form with only one loss in their last six but will find it difficult to get anything from this match. Shamrock Rovers have won five of their last six home league games. They have dominated home head-to-heads with Derry City, losing just once in the last ten. At home this season, Rovers have given little away, conceding only seven goals in their twelve home matches.
17:30 Madison Keys vs Karolina Muchova
Madison Keys
Win Match

@1.57
Win

Madison Keys has been outstanding on the hard courts this year, having won the Australian Open. She put together a sixteen-match winning streak after beating Pegula in the final at Adelaide and reaching the semi-finals at Indian Wells. She is ranked at number eight in the world, some six spots above Muchova. Keys won the only previous meeting and is my selection to win again today.

Antwerp won the last meeting of these sides near the end of last season and claimed a point in their first game this term versus the champions. Genk have been in poor form both at the latter part of last season and at the start of this campaign. Go with Antwerp with a 0.75 of a goal start in the handicap.

Casper Ruud
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.00
Lose
-50
Casper Ruud to beat Khachanov is the forecast for this match. Ruud has a good record at this event. Twice a quarter-finalist and a semi-finalist in 2022. At number eight in the seedings, he is three spots higher than his opponent. Ruud has won both of his matches without dropping a set. Khachanov made hard work of beating a qualifier in three tough sets in the last round and has struggled this year on hard courts. Head-to-head stands at 1-1, with Ruud winning the only meeting played on a hard court.

Wycombe reached the play offs last season and hopes are high again this term. Their away record last campaign was one of the best in the division. They seem to have strengthened their squad in the close season and look a good value wager on the handicap for this game.
15:00 Tromso v Fredrikstad
Tromso
50 WIN
@1.75
Lose
-50
Tromso had won nine games on the trot prior to last week's loss, and will be aiming to quickly get back to winning ways. Strong home form, winning their last four. They have three games in hand of the league leaders and are only eight points behind. Tromso have dominated home head-to-heads with five consecutive wins. On the road, Fredrikstad have struggled, with no away win in five. Tromso to win.

Wigan
50 WIN
@2.10
Win
55
Wigan to start their campaign with a home victory. They ended last term unbeaten in their last eight games. With the addition of Paul Mullin up front, they have a proven goal scorer and he will be a significant factor. Northampton struggled on the road last season and won just one of their last six away fixtures.
11:00 Ulsan HD v Suwon FC
Suwon FC (AH) 0.75
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.90

Ulsan are the reigning league champions but are struggling this term. They are down to seventh place in the standings, with Suwon in eleventh spot. Suwon are six points behind but with a game in hand. Ulsan have not won any of their last ten games, and at home have managed just two wins in their last eight.

Warrington are back in eighth position, nine points behind the Leopards. At home, Leigh have won six of eight played. On the road, Warrington have won four of their ten away fixtures. Leigh are in fine recent form, winning six of their last seven. Warrington have been inconsistent with three successes in their last seven matches. Leigh have won all four home Super League meetings against Warrington.
19:45 Bohemians Dublin v Drogheda United
Bohemians Dublin
50 WIN
@1.50
Lose
-50
Bohemians have a strong home record, having won seven of their last nine league matches at home. They are currently sitting in second place in the league table, two spots ahead of tonight's opponents, Drogheda, and four points ahead. Much of Bohemians' success has been based around their well-organized defense. They have kept four clean sheets in their last five home fixtures. Drogheda would be higher in the table but for a recent inconsistent spell of results, having won just two of their last six. Bohemians are the predicted winners of this match.
16:00 Alejandro Davidovich Fokina vs Jakub Mensik
Alejandro Davidovich Fokina
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.80
Win

Davidovich Fokina leads 3-1 in head-to-heads and is in fine form of late. Finalist last week in Washington, which was his third final on hard courts this year.

Spain Women have been the best team at this tournament, playing a neat passing style of football. England Women started the tournament slowly but have grown into the competition game by game. They play a slightly different style, with a more direct approach. This could end up being a cagey affair and possibly finish level after 90 minutes.

Both of these clubs are finding it difficult in the Brazilian top flight. Recife are currently bottom of the points table with Santos fourth off the bottom. Sport Recife have yet to win a league fixture this term and are languishing some ten points from safety. Santos will be viewing this game as a good opportunity to claim three points and help their climb away from the threat of relegation. On the road, Santos have won two and drawn one of their last five. Go with Santos on the handicap.

St. Gallen have a strong home head-to-head record versus Basel and are unbeaten in the last seven meetings. Last term, St. Gallen had a good home record, only losing three of their 18 home fixtures. They did well in European competition, qualifying for the league section of the Europa Conference. Basel are the reigning Super League champions but won't find it easy today. St. Gallen on the handicap spread is the selection.

Kristiansund have done well at home so far this season and currently sit one point ahead of today's visitors KFUM. It could be a low-scoring affair between teams who have struggled in front of goal, but with home advantage, Kristiansund look a good value bet on the handicap with the benefit of a 0.50 of a goal start.

Sarpsborg have put together a great away record this campaign. Unbeaten in seven road games. A lot of their success comes on the back of a well-organized defensive unit. The hosts are one spot ahead of Sarpsborg in the standings, but Sarpsborg are an improving team, so take them on the handicap.

Take the British and Irish Lions to win this second test match and claim a two-nil series lead. They will once again have a huge travelling support, with over 40,000 fans in the stadium.

The Lions looked a class above the Australian side for most of last week's game, and I cannot envisage them allowing Australia as many chances this week.

The quoted spread for total points in this game is surprisingly on the low side. Especially when you take into consideration the attacking qualities and options of the Lions. Australia will aim to nullify the visitors' backs, but with Finn Russell directing things from fly-half, I can see there being plenty of tries scored. Over 42.50 total match points is the prediction.

BK Hacken from Sweden are my speculative selection to beat Anderlecht. They will have stronger match fitness having already played 16 league matches plus European fixtures. They are currently unbeaten in their last five games. Defensively, they have looked solid in those five games, keeping three clean sheets while scoring plenty themselves. They reached the third round of this competition last season and will be confident of going deep into this year's tournament.
