15:00 Chelsea v Leeds
Draw
50 WIN
@+270
Lose
-50
Yesterday's semi-final was a good game. It did look like the Saints were going to beat City, but they fought back in the last minutes to win 2-1 with a goal worthy of winning the match. We have an all-PL semi-final today, and on current form Leeds will take some beating. A draw could be likely.

I don't know what to expect from this semifinal today, with Chelsea in poor form and now managerless after sacking the manager following another poor defeat. I have gone with a draw, but this looks like nice odds for what might happen.

Yes, I know Hawkins is leading comfortably, but Mark Williams is a top player and will not give in. Hawkins could struggle today. Who knows?
Barry Hawkins -3.50
Handicap Betting
50 WIN
@-149

As a cover selection, I will add this selection, with Hawkins in a great position when this match resumes tonight. It will be a massive upset if Williams does manage to come back and win.
Mark Williams 13-12
Frame Betting
50 WIN
@+850
Lose
-50
I will add this selection too, as I have gone for the trailing player behind Williams. He will need to go the distance to turn this match around.
17:30 Arsenal v Newcastle
Arsenal
50 WIN
@-227
Win
22
Arsenal are in real trouble with the title chase. After back-to-back defeats, they sit behind Man City on goals scored. City are in the FA Cup this weekend, so the Gunners can go back top with a win against a side in very poor form, with the crowd asking for the sacking of their manager.
17:15 Man City v Southampton
Southampton
50 WIN
@+1150
Lose
-50
I am taking a chance on a big surprise here today, with City not at their best of late. The Saints have already beaten Arsenal this season.
15:00 Barnet v Gillingham
Gillingham
50 WIN
@+650
Lose
-50
Yes. The hosts are still in with a chance of making the play-offs with a win, but the visitors have a habit of upsetting teams, as they did with us recently.
15:00 Birmingham v Bristol City
Bristol City
50 WIN
@+400
Lose
-50
The hosts have blown their chances of the play-offs and their form has been very up and down. It has been the same for the visitors, but they have had one or two surprise away wins and they might dominate today.
15:00 Burton Albion v Exeter
Exeter
50 WIN
@+320
Lose
-50
Huge game here, with these two. The hosts sit four places above the visitors, who sit in the fourth relegation place. The visitors have to win today, so will be going all out for three points.
15:00 Cambridge Utd v Barrow
Barrow
50 WIN
@+1100
Lose
-50
I think we will see some surprise results in League Two today, starting with this game. The hosts are trying to finish in the top three, but the visitors are fighting hard to stay up. They could pull off a big shock given the hosts' recent form not so hot.
15:00 Chesterfield v Crewe
Crewe
50 WIN
@+475
Lose
-50
Crewe can enjoy their final away game of the season with the play-offs now out of reach, and the hosts dropping out of the top seven. They might come away with a surprise win.
15:00 Liverpool v Crystal Palace
Liverpool
50 WIN
@-181
Win
28
Place: like Liverpool have been up and down this season, but Liverpool appear to be back in some form again and need a third win on the bounce to move up to third place.
15:00 Norwich v Swansea
Swansea
50 WIN
@+400
Lose
-50
Again, nice odds. I'm taking a chance on an away win, with them winning their last game. The hosts will be low after just missing out on the play-offs.
15:00 Oxford Utd v Sheff Wed
Sheff Wed
50 WIN
@+650
Lose
-50
The visitors have been relegated since February, but they have had a few surprise wins along the way. They might do so again today, with the hosts sitting third-bottom, six points away from safety with two games left to play.
15:00 Plymouth v Port Vale
Port Vale
50 WIN
@+750
Lose
-50
Vale are already relegated now, I think, but can enjoy themselves in their final away game. Their hosts can still finish sixth, but it's a long shot.
15:00 Sheff Utd v Preston
Draw
50 WIN
@+375

-50
Another nothing game here today, with these two sitting side by side in mid-table with very similar form. I am not expecting much action today.
15:00 Stoke v Portsmouth
Draw
50 WIN
@+250
Lose
-50
Another nothing game again here, with Stoke in mid-table and no wins in four. The visitors have managed to get themselves just safe from relegation.
15:00 Walsall v Harrogate Town
Draw
50 WIN
@+259
Lose
-50
Our visitors really need a win today, sitting bottom, and three points could see them move out of the bottom two. Our home form has been poor, but we did win at Barrow last weekend. I fancy a draw given our poor home form, and I think it finished 0-0 here last season.
15:00 West Ham v Everton
West Ham
50 WIN
@+139
Win
70
Everton are safe, and I'm not sure how they will play today, but West Ham have to win, sitting a place and two points above Spurs, who sit in the third relegation place. I think the Hammers will be up for the challenge today.
15:00 Wigan v AFC Wimbledon
AFC Wimbledon
50 WIN
@+240
Win
120
I do hope the Dons go down after beating us in the play-off final, but they know they have to win today to try to climb away from the bottom four, as they sit one place and two points above the bottom four.
15:00 Wolverhampton v Tottenham
Tottenham
50 WIN
@-136
Win
37
Nice odds for our near neighbour to win. With relegation now happening they can relax and enjoy themselves today. But Spurs have to win today, sitting in the final relegation place, two points behind West Ham, who have an easy-looking home win chance.
12:30 Fulham v Aston Villa
Aston Villa
50 WIN
@+170
Lose
-50
I have to go with the visitors here today. They are back in form, and they know a win in this early kick-off will see them move into third place.

This game is always a winner for goals, and I expect a repeat again with BTTS happening as it usually does. The hosts can now concentrate on winning the title after being knocked out of the CL.
20:00 Bournemouth v Leeds
Bournemouth
50 WIN
@+100

I have to go with a home win here tonight, with the hosts in very steady form ??" unbeaten in their last ten games. Leeds look like they will avoid relegation after a decent run of form.
20:00 Burnley v Man City
Man City
50 WIN
@-555

Very short odds here, but after beating Arsenal on Sunday, the visitors have a real chance of winning the title again. I don't expect them to slip up tonight against a side going straight back to the Championship.

Tricky game to call tonight. Chelsea's current form is not at its best, and they still have a caretaker manager. This is never an easy ground to visit, and the hosts are in very good form with home advantage.
19:45 Coventry v Portsmouth
Draw
50 WIN
@+332
Lose
-50
The hosts will be playing back in the PL next season after a draw last weekend. They now want to [become] champions with a win tonight to start the party. The visitors are still fighting a relegation battle to stay up and have hit some form of late and will be difficult to beat tonight.
19:45 Leicester v Hull
Hull
50 WIN
@+229
Lose
-50
I can't believe how bad a season the hosts are having and are on the verge of playing next season in League One. They face a tough game against promotion-chasing visitors, who I think will win tonight.
19:45 Southampton v Bristol City
Draw
50 WIN
@+400
Win

The hosts have been on a great run and also reached the FA Cup semi-finals. They could go second tonight with a win, but I will take a chance on the visitors getting in the way tonight.
19:45 West Brom v Watford
Draw
50 WIN
@+279
Lose
-50
The Baggies have been fighting hard to get out of the bottom three and have managed it, but they aren't safe yet. Teams around them also play tonight. The visitors have little to play for but are higher placed and might take a point.

I have to go with the visitors here, who are fighting for their PL place and might want the win more than their fellow London hosts tonight. The hosts might not be at their best after a tough European game last Thursday.
Jarrod Bowen

This is the main guy for the visitors again this season and is usually a huge danger to defenses. He might well score again tonight.

Hughes is always a favourite to pick up a card, as he plays centre midfield, loves to tackle, and usually commits plenty of fouls.

If the game ends the day in the PL, I was going with a draw, but United are in better form and I think they might edge this battle tonight on current form.

This guy is the main man for Utd and is always likely to assist in a goal. He also loves scoring the goals himself, and with his current team form and his form, he might score tonight.
Luke Shaw

This guy is a very good defender but is likely to put in some heavy tackles and fouls and regularly picks up cards. I think he got a yellow in his last game against Leeds.

@+139

-50
Huge game for the hosts, who are in real trouble in the bottom three, and yet another new manager started with another defeat. The visitors are in very good form, with three wins on the bounce, and on current form they are my tip.
15:00 Leeds v Wolverhampton
Leeds
50 WIN
@-161

Leeds could make sure of being in the PL next season if they can follow up a great win at Old Trafford last time out. They should be far too good for a Wolves side that's all but relegated, 15 points from safety.
15:00 Leyton Orient v Rotherham
Leyton Orient
50 WIN
@-133

This should be a home win. The hosts are now safe from the bottom three, which includes the third-bottom placed visitors who are relegated. The hosts could still finish in the final relegation place.
15:00 Newcastle v Bournemouth
Newcastle
50 WIN
@+114
Lose
-50
Huge game for the former Bournemouth manager Howe, with the fans wanting him sacked after some poor results. They are just six points behind sixth-placed Chelsea, and Bournemouth are three places behind and won at Arsenal last week. I will go with the hosts.
15:00 Sheff Wed v Charlton
Sheff Wed

The hosts have been relegated for so long, sitting at the bottom, but they have been playing well and will do so today. I think they will win again.
12:30 Barnsley v Bradford
Bradford
50 WIN
@+129
Lose
-50
Big game for Bradford, who could still pinch second place if other results go their way and they win their last four. They will want to finish no lower than their current fourth place. The hosts are in very poor form and have nothing to play for.
12:30 Barrow v Walsall
Barrow
50 WIN
@+145
Lose
-50
I have to go with the hosts here, as our mob have been in the beach for the last two weeks. As we saw last week, they lost 4-0 at home to struggling Cheltenham, and it could easily have been six or seven. The hosts are fighting mid to move out of the bottom two. They came from behind twice in midweek here to beat play-off chasers Oldham 3-2, and it's not one of our lucky grounds.

Bolton sit third and can't finish in the second automatic promotion place, but will want to finish in third. They should get eighth-placed visitors, who look unlikely to finish in the top six.

Big London derby between two of the lesser big clubs. The hosts are in steady form, looking for their highest finishing position since returning to the Premier League, and they might edge it.
12:30 Derby v Oxford Utd

@+320

Another big game today. The hosts slipped to 8th place after two defeats in three. They host a side sitting third-bottom but unbeaten in three, with two draws and a much-needed win last time out. They might cause an upset today.
12:30 Halifax v Southend
Southend

@+108

I have to go with the visitors here today, who sit in the final play-off place. No other team can catch them, but they can still finish higher by winning their final three games.

50 WIN
@+290

London derby and Millwall look like they are intent on throwing away the chance of finishing second, with just one win in five, but still sit third. The visitors sit mid-table, unbeaten in five and drawing the last two games.
12:30 Portsmouth v Leicester
Portsmouth
50 WIN
@+139

I would have liked to go with Leicester here, but they look like they are not going to move out of the bottom three after some awful form. The hosts, too, are still not safe, sitting two places above the bottom three with a four-point advantage. They have had back-to-back wins, and another today could see them safe.
12:30 Swindon v Accrington Stanley
Draw
50 WIN
@+300
Win

I am going with a draw here despite the hosts being in the promotion battle but having dropped to fifth place after a poor run of form. The visitors love upsetting higher-placed teams and frustrating them.
