Arsenal
90 WIN
@1.62
Lose
-90
The Gunners have won seven in a row in all competitions, and they put four past Villa in their last home game. Twelve straight Emirates wins for Arsenal, and with Liverpool struggling, it's all in on the league leaders extending the gap at the top.

Unexpected Party
Daily Racing
79 WINNOTEBest Odds Guaranteed SP 2.10 used instead of 1.67 takenBOG
@2.10
Win
86
Unexpected Party should be a class above in the last at Taunton, and I fancy the odds-on favourite will duly oblige. Runner-up at the Cheltenham Festival and at Carlisle since then, I am siding with the Skelton runner winning this Open Hunters' Chase.
14:30 David Gilbert v Luca Brecel
David Gilbert
Win Match
50 WIN
@2.20
Win
60
David Gilbert beat Luca Brecel two years ago at the Crucible, and I fancy the Englishman will give "The Bullet" a game this afternoon. As we know, the Belgian can be hit-and-miss, and I am siding with Gilbert, hanging in over the best of nine frames to take his chance.
14:30 Jack Lisowski v Lan Yuhao
Lan Yuhao
Win Match
50 WIN
@4.25
Lose
-50
Jack Lisowski has lost his last four matches, and this looks like a qualifier that could get away from him pretty quickly. Yuhao beat Ben Woollaston in the last round, and I am siding with the Chinese player upsetting Lisowski.
Lan Yuhao 2.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@1.90
Lose

Jack Lisowski has lost his last four matches, and I fancy this will be a banana skin against Yuhao. Lan has beaten Totten and Woollaston so far this week, and I am siding with the Asian taking three frames off Lisowski.

Ryan Day 1.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@1.80
Win
40
Joe O'Connor wasn't able to string two games together the last few days in the Championship League, and I fancy this will be a tight match with Ryan Day. The Welshman has won the last two head-to-head meetings, and I am siding with this going all the way to a deciding frame.
14:30 Peifan Lei v Xu Si
Peifan Lei
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.70
Lose
-50
Lei Peifan has shown his class over the last twelve months and was a winner in the Scottish Open. Xu Si has only won back-to-back matches once since last July, and I fancy Lei will win this battle of the Chinese to book his spot in the main draw of the German Masters.

Ken Doherty 2.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@2.20
Lose
-50
The Darling of Dublin has come through two qualifiers, and he has been playing some nice snooker this week in the German Masters prelims. Bingham is the favourite, of course, but Doherty won both his matches 5-4, and I fancy he will take at least three against the Englishman.

Noppon Saengkham 0.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@2.05
Lose
-50
Noppon Saengkham has won four of the last six head-to-head meetings with Tom Ford, and I fancy the Asian could follow up his win over Sam Craigie by beating the Englishman. Ford came through the Championship League playoffs the weekend, and I am siding with this being close.

Daniel Wells 1.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@2.00
Win

Daniel Wells has won both previous head-to-head meetings with Zhou Yuelong, and I fancy this will be a close one. It was 6??"1 to the Welshman when they last met a few months ago. I am siding with this going all the way to a decider.

20:15 Burnley v Man Utd
Man Utd
59 WIN
@1.70
Lose
-59
Darren Fletcher steps in as interim manager, and I fancy he gets an immediate reaction out of the players. United beat Burnley 3-2 at home earlier this season. With three of the last four head-to-heads behind Red Devils' wins, I am siding with the away win at Turf Moor.
20:15 Newcastle v Leeds
Newcastle
59 WIN
@1.73
Win

Four defeats and three draws in seven away games for Leeds United, and I fancy they will struggle at St James' Park. Newcastle United have won their last two against Burnley and Crystal Palace. I am siding with the Toon to make it three wins in a row by beating Leeds at home.

Bashful Boy is a non-runner in this Stayers' Series Qualifying Handicap, and I fancy Sax Appeal will take this opportunity with open arms. A winner the week before last at Southwell, and with a Kempton win last September, I am siding with Sax Appeal to get it done in this Class Four.

Draw
50 WIN
@3.70
Lose
-50
Three draws and two defeats in five at home for Bournemouth, and they have been struggling of late. Spurs have drawn two of their last four away, at Brentford and Newcastle United. I fancy there won’t be much between the sides here. The score draw is the play at the Vitality Stadium.

Brentford
59 WIN

19:30 Crystal Palace v Aston Villa
Aston Villa
50 WIN
@2.25
Lose
-50
Aston Villa got back to winning ways last weekend, beating Nottingham Forest at home. They have seven away wins in ten games. Before the Arsenal defeat last week at the Emirates, they had won five in a row away, and I fancy Villa to beat a Palace side who have lost five of their last seven.
19:30 Everton v Wolverhampton
Draw

Wolves had a huge home win against West Ham United last weekend. After getting a point in their last away game at Old Trafford, I fancy Wanderers will give Everton a game.

Three draws in five away games for Chelsea, including a late equaliser last weekend against City at the Etihad. Fulham have drawn their last two: 1-1 with Palace and 2-2 with Liverpool. I fancy this London derby ends in a point apiece at Craven Cottage.

Popmaster had nothing to offer over the mile last week at Southwell and finished third on New Year’s Day. Fourth last March when last racing at Kempton. I fancy the drop to seven furlongs will be right in the wheelhouse of Popmaster.

17th and 18th meet in the Premier League, and this is a relegation six-pointer at the London Stadium.

Kyle Walker Peters
Player to be Booked
50 WIN
@5.00

Tomas Soucek
Player to be Booked
50 WIN
@5.00
Lose

Eight bookings last season for the Czech Republic man. With this being a relegation six-pointer, I fancy tackles will fly in the middle of the park. Tomáš Sou?ek will have eyes on Anderson and Gibbs-White, and I am siding with the defensive midfielder ending up with a yellow.

Draw
50 WIN
@3.80

20:00 Leicester v West Brom
Leicester
50 WIN
@2.75
Win
88
Nine straight away defeats for the Baggies, and I can't understand how they are favourites away to Leicester. The Foxes beat Derby County in their last home game, and they have beaten Ipswich and Stoke, who are both top eight. I fancy Leicester will be too good on the night for Albion, and the home win is the play.
19:45 Montpellier v Dunkerque
Montpellier
50 WIN

Luke Littler
Win Match 2-way
52 WIN
@1.44
Win
23
The Nuke beat Gian van Veen en route to winning the World Grand Prix, and I fancy the world number one will become a two-time world champion. Van Veen has battled past Humphries and Anderson, and my gut feeling is he will fall just shy in this final. Luke Littler to go back-to-back with a 7-4 or 7-5 win.
Over 10.50
Total Sets
50 WIN
@1.73
Lose
-50
Best of thirteen sets in this World Championship final, and I do fancy Gian van Veen will take more than three sets off 'The Nuke.' The Dutchman has beaten Luke Humphries and Gary Anderson the last two rounds, and I am siding with this going at least eleven sets. 7-4 or 7-5 to Littler is the thinking, and over 10.5 sets is the play.
20:00 PDC World Championship 2026
Josh Rock
50 EW
@12.00
Lose
-100
A semi finalist back in July at the World Matchplay and the Northern Irishman has shown he is ready to take the step up to the upper echelons of the game. He won the World Cup of Darts with Daryl Gurney and it has really given Rocky a lot of confidence to kick on and realise his potential. He won the 2022 World Youth Championship and I fancy Josh Rock can land the PDC World Championship at Ally Pally.

250 WIN
@2.50
Win
375
The defending champion beat Michael van Gerwen twelve months ago to become the world champion at the age of 17. I fancy he returns to the Ally Pally stage very much the man everyone has to beat. The Nuke has reached the final the last two years in London, and I am siding with Luke Littler becoming a two-time world champion.

Nice
50 WIN

Player to be Booked
50 WIN
@10.00

Three bookings last season in the Premier League, and I fancy the winger will look to take on the Bournemouth full-back Adrien Truffert. Noni Madueke can put the foot in, and I am siding with the Arsenal man mistiming a challenge to find his way into the referee's notebook.
15:00 Brighton v Burnley
Brighton
50 WIN
@1.48
Win

Burnley were beaten 3-1 at home by Newcastle United to end 2025, and I fancy this will be another tough test away to Brighton. Albion are hard to beat at the AMEX Stadium, and with eight defeats in 10 for the Clarets, I am siding with the home win.

Ezri Konsa
Player to be Booked
52 WIN
@5.50

-52
The centre back will be tested by Igor Jesus, Hutchinson, and Gibbs-White, who won't be shy to attack the Villa back line. Konsa has been booked this season, and I fancy the defender commits a run of fouls to find his way into the referee's notebook.
