12:40 Arctic Race of Norway 2025 Stage 1
Davide Ballerini
Win Outright
50 WIN
@7.00
Lose
-50
Davide may not quite have the consistency of the favorite, who is undoubtedly a rider in particular form. But he has a devastating burst of speed, and it's perhaps only his strategic qualities that let him down. But that's more than factored into this price.

19:30 Basel v Young Boys
Basel & No (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@4.20
Lose
-50
Basel have proven themselves to be a fine team at home, and I expect them to win this one. The only question is whether the away side will score. I think the home side has a strong enough defense to withstand the probably fairly minimal pressure that will be put on them.
18:30 Bosnia & Herzegovina Women vs Montenegro Women
Bosnia & Herzegovina Women to win 3-0
Set Score
50 WIN
@5.00
Lose
-50
I don't see this one being quite as close as the bookies seem to think because the Bosnian women's team is undoubtedly the stronger and fitter of the two. I really think the gap here is fairly wide, and they will win this one quite comfortably.
18:10 18:10 Saratoga
Costa Terra
Daily Racing
50 WINNAP
@4.00
Void
0
Costa Terra is a pretty inconsistent sort, and that always needs to be factored into any bets. But I think the price here does factor in that risk because this is a proven winner at this sort of level who will win this one if he can get away reasonably well.
18:00 FC Salzburg v Club Brugge
Club Brugge #2-1
50 WIN
@10.00
Lose
-50
Brugge is just about to have the edge tonight on the back of a fine European campaign last year, which should mean they're high on confidence. Albeit, they face a pretty decent Salzburg side, so they won't have it all their own way.
18:00 RFS v KuPS Kuopio
RFS & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@3.75
Lose
-50
RFS will just about edge this one, but it will be tight. I certainly expect the away side to put up a fight and more than likely score, so this looks like a big price to me.
18:00 Tanzania A v Mauritania A
Tanzania A & No (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@3.00
Win
100
Tanzania played very nicely against Bikini of Fossil in the last match. Whereas Martin ground out a very dull nil-nil draw against Madagascar and doesn't appear to have much going forward. So, I think it will be a narrow victory.
16:00 Kairat Almaty v Slovan Bratislava
Kairat Almaty (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.95
Win
47
Almaty has quietly assembled a pretty useful team and certainly were very strong at home last season. So even though Slovan Bratislava does have a few usual players and greater experience at this level, I do fancy the home side tonight.
16:00 Romania Women vs Croatia Women
Romania Women to win 3-1
Set Score
50 WIN
@4.50
Win
175
Romania are undoubtedly the superior side here, but they face a Croatian team which isn't without a threat. I don't see Romania coming out of this cave, so this looks like a nice price on a recent big victory.
13:33 1:33 Monmore
Knockbann Daisy
Daily Races
50 WIN
@1.80
Win
40
Daisy is, if anything, slightly longer in price than I expected given a wonderful performance last time out. This is a dark horse which tends to hold form pretty well, so I'm expecting another big performance.
11:15 Tour De Pologne 2025 Stage 3
Mathias Vacek
Win Outright
50 WIN
@7.00
Lose
-50
Vacek performed pretty well yesterday, and there's been a general overreaction in the market to something of an upset. So, I think sticking with the quality will prevail today, and we will likely see a return to normality.

Living In Style
Daily Racing
50 WINNAP
@3.25
Lose
-50
Living In Style was a good runner-up last time out around here. Some of the speed stats really look impressive. Although there's no doubt some vulnerability in terms of consistency, there's value here.
18:00 Malmo FF v FC Copenhagen
Draw #1-1
50 WIN
@6.00
Lose
-50
These are two very even sides in my view, and both have fairly limited attacking quality. So not only do I see them canceling each other out, I don't see many goals either.
17:00 Bayer Leverkusen v Pisa
Bayer Leverkusen & No (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@2.90
Win
95
Leverkusen may not have been quite as good last season, but they remain a more than decent force in European football and have a pretty solid defense. So, I think they'll be good enough to come through this one. I don't see them conceding either.
11:45 Tour De Pologne 2025 Stage 2
Maxim Van Gils
Win Outright
50 WIN
@4.00
Lose
-50
Maxim should be the favorite in my view because he tends to have the edge over Jan and looked superior last time out. So anything around 4s is big.

22:21 22:21 Woodbine
Dresden Row
Daily Racing
50 WINNAP
@2.00
Lose
-50
Dresden Row has all the tools but still has a frustrating level of inconsistency. This means there's always a level of risk associated with these bets. But at his best, he's streets clear of this lot.
15:00 Bradford v Wycombe
Bradford
50 WIN
@2.50
Win
75
Bradford face a tricky opening match this season, but they've added a couple of decent players to the squad. I think they're likely to have goals in them, even if they've got a fragile defense. So, this could be an entertaining home win.
15:00 Burton Albion v Mansfield
Burton Albion
50 WIN
@2.50
Win
75
Burton look to have a pretty decent squad coming into the new season. They, in particular, look like they'll have a strong spine. So even though they no doubt lack the creativity of some of the better teams in this division, I see them going well at home.
15:00 Doncaster v Exeter
Doncaster & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@4.00
Lose
-50
Doncaster face a tricky first match of the season. I think it's one in which there will be goals. I see them sneaking through because they have quite a bit of pace out wide, which I think means they'll get behind the opposition and create chances.
15:00 Plymouth v Barnsley
Plymouth
50 WIN
@2.25
Lose
-50
Plymouth should be much closer to evens in my view because they've got a very cohesive unit, which is difficult to break down. Even at home, they tend to play some counter-attacking football, which I think will be difficult for Barnsley to cope with.
15:00 Rotherham v Port Vale
Rotherham
50 WIN
@2.25
Win
62
Rotherham certainly struggled last season, and I'm not expecting them to do much better this year. However, there is quite a big disparity between the home and away records. At home, they're solid enough to grind out some results.
12:30 Cardiff v Peterborough
Cardiff & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@3.10
Win
105
It will be more entertaining. The book seems to think this card will certainly have goals in them and expect them to come through it. But they're not without defensive fragility, and I can certainly see them conceding.

09:00 New Zealand Warriors v Dolphins
New Zealand Warriors

@2.30

The Warriors look overpriced to me at home because the Dolphins have flattered to deceive everyone in games that they really have no right to. So, I think that luck will run dry soon.
01:30 Elena Rybakina vs Jaqueline Cristian
Elena Rybakina to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
@1.44
Win
22
Elena is expected to win this and win it well. She's got a terrific service game, which alone should be able to dominate an opponent who has struggled every time she stepped up recently.
01:00 West Indies vs Pakistan 1st T20 Match
J Charles
Man Of The Match
50 WIN
@9.00
Lose
-50
Charles is my bet in the 'Man of the Match' market because I can see his side dominating with the bat and relying heavily on him to do so. I think doubling up with the 'Man of the Match' market is a sensible move.
J Charles (West Indies)
Top Team1 Batsman
50 WIN
@3.60
Win
65
Charles really is a destructive bat at his best. He's been playing quite nicely at the moment as a man that West Indies rely on heavily to win difficult matches like this one. I also think he will very much take to this pitch.
00:00 Alexander Zverev vs Matteo Arnaldi
Alexander Zverev to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
@1.70
Lose
-50
Alexander can certainly be unpredictable at the highest level, where he's equally capable of spectacular victories and chaotic defeats. But against players at this sort of level, he tends to be more consistent and reliable.

Dallas admittedly weren't at their best last time out, but there's a sense that they're starting to slowly trend in the right direction. They look to be at full strength, so this looks like a big price.
00:00 PHX Mercury @ IND Fever
IND Fever
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.35
Win
68
The Fever are underestimated by the bookies here. I actually think they should be much closer to evens on the basis of some really solid home form. So this is a huge price.

19:58 19:58 Saratoga
Corruption
Daily Racing
50 WINNAP
@1.67
Win
34
Corruption is admittedly a very short price here, but it's undoubtedly justified for a horse that has competed and won at a higher level. She has shown some pretty good form, and there's a real sense that she should hold form pretty well, particularly in this sort of company.
19:10 ATL Braves @ KC Royals
KC Royals
Money Line
50 WIN
@1.80
Win
40
The Royals have a pretty good record against the Braves, especially at home. I'm not basic. I'm prepared to overlook somewhat indifferent recent form because I sometimes think historic records count for a lot.
18:10 ARI Diamondbacks @ DET Tigers
DET Tigers
Money Line
50 WIN
@1.77
Win
38
The Tigers were expected to be a little bit longer in price than this, but I still think that this represents decent value because they seem to be high in confidence and scoring quite freely at the moment. They tend to hold their form quite well.
18:10 BOS Red Sox @ MIN Twins
MIN Twins
Money Line
50 WIN
@1.91
Lose
-50
MIN, on the face of it, I'm not in the better form. But when you scratch beneath the surface, the performances have actually been recently good. They've been perhaps a little unlucky not to get more out of those games. So I'm prepared to overlook the bare form and get on board at a big price.
17:35 TOR Blue Jays @ BAL Orioles
BAL Orioles
Money Line
50 WIN
@1.91
Lose
-50
Orioles are a big favorite of mine, so there's a bit of heart and a bit of head involved in this one. But as long as they have a couple of superstars in their ranks, I think that the general lack of strength in depth can be overlooked, and they should have a better chance in this one.
17:30 Yunchaokete Bu vs Lorenzo Sonego
Lorenzo Sonego to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
@3.00
Win
100
Sonego certainly faces a tough match today, but I think it's one that is capable of being won. This is a player who thrives on confidence and momentum. A decent start, in my view, could result in a whitewash win for a player with a backhand game which is up there with the best.
17:00 Monaco v Torino
Monaco (AH) -0.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.95
Win
47
Monaco is usually a decent bet at home. They've added quite well to the squad in the last couple of months and, as usual, tend to produce some good quality homegrown talent. So it looks like a pretty good price.
11:30 Xinyu Gao vs Ella Seidel
Ella Seidel to win 2 - 0
Set Betting
50 WIN
@3.00
Void
0
Ella Seidel faces a difficult match today. I think the bookies have probably priced the outright market quite keenly. She's the sort of player who can very quickly get on a roll. I get a sense that if she does win this one, it will probably be 2-0. If she loses a set, she would probably lose the whole match. So, it looks like a generous price.
10:30 NC Dinos @ Lotte Giants
NC Dinos
Money Line
50 WIN
@3.30
Win
115
Dinos, I've been disrespected by the bookies today because they're in pretty good form. They play a team with a fine home record, but this is a team with some real star quality who can produce big performances whether home or away.
10:30 Samsung Lions @ Hanwha Eagles
Samsung Lions
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.80
Lose
-50
Samsung should be much closer in price to the opposition today. They have been going reasonably well but are certainly trending in the right direction. Even their defeats have tended to be close, so I think they will give us good value for our money today.

Katerina has a lovely flow and style to her game while she may struggle sometimes in the power players. I think she's got more than enough to win this one pretty comfortably.
12:00 Olympic Kingsway v Melbourne Victory
Draw
50 WIN
@9.50
Win

Melbourne should win this one, but there's enough jeopardy here to keep me interested. The home side has started its season fairly well and certainly has bags of resilience, so a draw is more than possible.
10:30 SD Raiders v Macarthur FC
Draw
50 WIN
@5.75
Lose
-50
Raiders have started the season reasonably well and certainly have a decent home record. Obviously, they're up against it here, but a confidence-boosting win last time out and with Macarthur not having played for a while, I think there could be a small shock here.
02:00 West Indies vs Australia T20 Series
Australia
Outright Winner

@1.05

Obviously, Australia is very likely to win the series now, having taken the first two matches. But there's just about enough value in this, given their dominance, to take what is an admittedly very skinny price.

Australia

Australia have been pretty dominant in the series thus far. The West Indies have not looked especially sharp, so I can really see this being another pretty solid victory for the Aussies.

Don't Cross Jack has great prospects tonight in a field where the likes of all the way are our third favorite. You know there isn't an awful lot to beat, and this is a horse that has competed and won at a higher level than this.

I can't separate these two. Both are struggling badly for goals, and I would like a confidence that suggests that both would probably take a point if given now. I think this will be quite a dour game.

@51.00
Lose
-50
Clanton, he's probably the most talented of the current bunch of youngsters on the tour. He continues to hit the ball as well as he did in an astonishing season last year, but his putter has occasionally let him down. Overall, though, it's just a case of him finding that one week where the pot of fire is, so I'm happy to take a chance this week.
Sam Burns
50 WIN
@15.00
Lose
-50
Burns is without question in cracking form recently and has probably done enough now to get himself into the Ryder Cup team. In what is a pretty weak field and having played nicely in the UK, I think he is just about value.
22:45 NV5 Invitational
Sudarshan Yellamaraju
25 EW
@67.00
Lose
-50
Audarshan finished a very credible third last week to take him into the top 15 in the overall points list. So he's a man very much in form and seems to be under the radar as far as the book is concerned, finishing as he did with a very impressive seven under 65 on the final day last week.
21:25 3M Open
Keith Mitchell
1st Round Leader
25 EW
@51.00
Lose
-50
Mitchell is without question one of the most consistent first-round players on tour. He has won this market a couple of times this season. It's his putting across the last few events which really seems to be firing and makes me think he's in for another low one today.
Michael Thorbjornsen
1st Round Leader
25 EW
@41.00
Lose
-50
Michael is simply an enormous talent and has started to show some of the form that made him the world number one amateur, including very briefly contending in the PGA Championship in May. So, having fallen down the order slightly compared to his last event, I'm happy to be on board.

16:45 The Senior Open
Mark Hensby
25 EW
@51.00
Lose
-50
I've gone with Hensby in the First Round Leader market because he's someone who notoriously starts well. I do think he has a cracking track record in the UK and the style of game which should play well. Love all, this is a stacked field. I think he represents a very good each way chance.
16:45 Womens Scottish Open
Ariya Jutanugarn
50 WIN
@31.00

Ariya must be high on confidence after the way she played at Evian. She's proven to play well in the UK, so if her game is coming back, this could look like a big price by the end of the week.
Leona Maguire

Leona played very nicely at the Evian and has a game which should suit these conditions. If she can just make a few putts, she has every chance.

Maarten Lafeber
1st Round Leader
25 EW
@151.00
Lose
-50
Maarten has always been a difficult man to back because he's a very unpredictable sort. But he remains a player capable of making birdies in bunches and has played well in the UK before. So it's a bit of a punt, but there seems to be real value here.
Mark Hensby
1st Round Leader
25 EW
@51.00
Win
288
Hensby is playing beautifully at the moment and has shown a liking for golf in the UK previously, I'll bet. This is not a linked test as such. He's a man who can get off to very hot starts, and though I don't expect him to win, I think he's got every chance in this market.
14:00 Slovan Liberec v Pardubice
Slovan Liberec
50 WIN
@1.48

Slovan Liberec are one of my favorite teams to watch in this domestic division. They are generally very dominant and have great pace out wide. They seem to create so many chances with runners in behind, so they look good for the win here.
13:45 Rakow Czestochowa v Wisla Plock
Rakow Czestochowa

Rakow play an aggressive attacking style. When they lose the ball, they swarm around their opponents and make it extremely difficult. So at home, I just cannot see past them given their style.
