15:00 Brighton v Everton

Draw

50 WIN

@+259

Win

130

Little between these two in positions and current form. The hosts have dropped to 12th, and Everton have climbed up to 10th after one defeat in five. This looks likely to be a tight match.

13:00 Shaun Murphy v Neil Robertson

Neil Robertson

Win Match

50 WIN

@-133

-50

Robertson was very impressive last night, albeit against a lowly ranked player. This might be more of a test today against one of the top players too. But I will go with Robertson.

Neil Robertson 0.50

Not that it makes my difference, I still might as well do this tip to go with my match winner pick with Robertson in great form, but so is Murphy.

Neil Robertson to win 6-5

Frame Betting

50 WIN

@+550

-50

This is very likely to be a massive match today, with two top-ten players meeting both in form. We should see a cracker, which might well go the distance.

12:30 Bristol Rovers v Newport County

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@-124

Lose

-50

Huge game in our decision affecting the relegation battle, and it's also a big derby over the years. Given their positions, both sides are not in great form, but it's a must-win game for both, so I am expecting goals today.

12:30 Grimsby v Milton Keynes Dons

No (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@+104

Lose

-50

I am going to take a chance on it happening here today in a big promotion battle. Yes, both are in good form, but the hosts have been seeing a fair few games without conceding.

Draw & Yes (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

50 WIN

@+350

Win

175

As I am not sure about this promotion battle, this is another cover selection to go with my BTTS not scoring, as it's a massive promotion battle between two big in-form sides who could cancel each other out.

12:30 Sheff Wed v Wrexham

Wrexham

50 WIN

@-188

Win

I have to go with the form book here, with the hosts sitting bottom and going down to League One, and Wrexham in fantastic form, seeing them move into the play-off places.

30 January 2026

20:00 Bristol City v Derby

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@-117

Lose

-50

I am going with the bookies again here. Both sides are still hoping to finish in the play-off places from their mid-table positions. Derby's recent run includes strong away results, with BTTS landing regularly.

20:00 Espanyol v CD Alaves

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@+129

Win

Nice odds for BTTS tonight in Spain, with both sides seeing BTTS happen in three of the last four meetings.

Espanyol & Yes (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

50 WIN

@+450

-50

I have already gone with BTTS happening here tonight. It's likely to be close, but the hosts will be counting on their solid home form against an aside that have been poor on their travels.

Espanyol (AH) -0.50

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@-105

Lose

-50

Nice low handicap to cover for the hosts tonight. They will be hoping their good home form will be enough to beat a poor side, especially on their travels.

19:00 Jimmy Robertson v Neil Robertson

Neil Robertson

Win Match

50 WIN

@-454

Win

Battle of the Robertsons here, but I have to go with Neil, who is back in great form again and back in the high rankings. He should be too strong tonight.

Neil Robertson -2.50

Handicap Betting

50 WIN

@-124

Win

I will take a chance on Neil Robertson winning comfortably tonight. He is back in great form and climbed from nowhere in the rankings to sit third.

19:00 Judd Trump v Xiao Guodong

Xiao Guodong 2.50

50 WIN

I think this match might be very tight tonight, with the world number one up against one of the very good Chinese players ranked 11. Both are in great form.

20:00 Aston Villa v FC Salzburg

Aston Villa (AH) -1.50

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+101

Lose

-50

I have to go with Villa tonight. They bounced back to form at Newcastle last weekend. They are already assured of a top-8 finish, but a win tonight could see them finish top.

20:00 Celtic v FC Utrecht

Celtic (AH) -1.25

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+100

Win

Celtic are favourites to win tonight, which could see them going into the knockout stages. Since Martin O'Neill came back again, they have been much better. The visitors are already eliminated.

Daizen Maeda

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+400

Lose

-50

I am taking a chance on this Celtic player scoring first tonight. He always gets in good positions to find the net.

20:00 FC Porto v Rangers

FC Porto (AH) -2.00

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+104

Push

I think Rangers are in for a tough night against one of the top sides in Portugal. Porto will be looking to force their way into the top eight with a win, which should do it. Rangers are already eliminated.

20:00 Ludogorets Razgrad v Nice

Ludogorets Razgrad (AH) -0.75

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+100

Win+Push

Again, here I am going with the hosts tonight. They will be looking to clinch a play-off place and they welcome the already eliminated French side Nice.

20:00 Nottm Forest v Ferencvarosi TC

Ferencvarosi TC (AH) 0.75

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+104

Lose

-50

I am not sure about this match tonight. Forest are already in the top 24 and could sneak into the top eight with a win. The visitors already sit in the top eight and will make sure they don't lose.

28 January 2026

20:00 Arsenal v Kairat Almaty

Arsenal (AH) -3.50

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+100

-50

This is a big handicap to cover, but the visitors are bottom of the 36-team table. Hopefully the hosts have got over that defeat here tonight and Man Utd on Sunday.

Gabriel Martinelli

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+125

Win

This player has been brilliant for Arsenal, especially in this competition, and is Arsenal's top scorer in the Champions League this season with five goals from six appearances.

20:00 Barcelona v FC Copenhagen

Barcelona (AH) -3.00

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+101

Push

I am taking a chance on the hosts covering this handicap tonight as they try to sneak into the top eight. On current form, they should win easily tonight.

20:00 Benfica v Real Madrid

Real Madrid (AH) -0.75

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+101

Lose

-50

This won't be an easy game for the visitors, as the hosts still have a chance of reaching the next stage. However, they face a tough game against the visitors, who I think will win.

20:00 Borussia Dortmund v Inter Milan

Borussia Dortmund (AH) 0.25

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@-117

Lose

-50

This will be a cracker tonight and is likely to be close, as they sit in similar positions on the edge of the top eight. Both will be going all out for the win, but home advantage could be key.

20:00 Eintracht Frankfurt v Tottenham

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@-153

-50

A little bit risky this pick, with the last meeting seeing only one goal, which was in a tense second leg. Tonight will be different, and a very open game looks likely.

20:00 Liverpool v FK Qarabag

Liverpool (AH) -3.00

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+101

Again, I will have a go with Liverpool covering this big minus handicap. Their form has improved in recent months. They won their last match away at Marseille 3-0.

Dominik Szoboszlai

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+120

Lose

-50

This player has been having a great season, and his free kicks are great. He has been regularly scoring for Liverpool in all competitions and is likely to score.

20:00 Man City v Galatasaray

Erling Haaland

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+200

Win

100

A little bit risky with Haaland in poor recent form, but we all know he's such a danger anywhere up front and he is due to score one, hopefully first tonight.

20:00 PSG v Newcastle

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@-208

Win

I am with the bookies here tonight and going with BTTS happening. The hosts are hitting form again, but they also give goals away. Newcastle know a win will secure a top-eight finish.

PSG & Yes (Result + BTTS)

Result and BTTS

50 WIN

@+150

-50

I am also going to add this selection, with the hosts strong here and scoring freely. They should be too strong for Newcastle, but I do think the visitors will find the net.

PSG (AH) -1.25

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@-102

I think Newcastle face a tough evening here tonight, with the hosts strong and Newcastle very up and down recently. I will go with the host covering the minus handicap.

@-124

-50

I have to go with overs here tonight in what should be a cracking match. Newcastle are averaging 4.71 cards per CL game, and I am sure the hosts will pick up a card or two.

20:00 PSV v Bayern Munich

Bayern Munich (AH) -1.25

Asian Hcap

50 WIN

@+101

-25

The visitors are breaking all records this season in all competitions. The hosts will be throwing everything at it, but I have to go with the visitors.

Harry Kane

Anytime Goalscorer

50 WIN

@-133

Short odds for Harry to score anytime, but he and the club are in such great form, breaking records galore. It will be a surprise if he doesn't score.

27 January 2026

19:45 Barnet v Tranmere

Barnet

50 WIN

@-149

Win

I have to go with a home win here, with the hosts silently climbing up the table after some good form. They now sit 13th, just seven points from the top seven. Tranmere are going the other way, dropping to 17th and losing their last three.

19:45 Bolton v Burton Albion

Bolton

50 WIN

@-188

Win

Burton have a habit of upsetting good teams this season but are still right in the relegation battle, sitting a place above the bottom four with one win in five. Bolton are one of the form sides and have moved up to third.

19:45 Bromley v Crewe

Bromley

50 WIN

@-133

Lose

-50

Again, here I have to go with the form book and the hosts. The hosts are having a fantastic season, sitting top of the pile and beat second-placed Swindon here on Saturday. Crewe are very up and down but are in poor form currently.

Michael Cheek

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+375

Lose

-50

I am hoping Cheek is playing tonight, as he is such an important player for the leaders. He didn't manage a goal at the weekend here, so he is due one.

19:45 Cambridge Utd v Shrewsbury

Cambridge Utd

50 WIN

@-161

Win

This should be another home banker, with the hosts in great form. They are in a good run and they took us apart here on New Year's Day. They are right in the promotion battle. Shrewsbury are in real trouble in the relegation dogfight and were hammered 5-0 at MK Dons on Saturday.

19:45 Cardiff v Barnsley

Cardiff

50 WIN

@-149

Win

Cardiff are still top with two wins and three draws, but the rest are moving in on them. They host a side sitting 15th with one win in five, so we should see a home win.

19:45 Lincoln City v Bradford

Lincoln City

50 WIN

@+104

Win

It's been a great season for the hosts, who sit nicely in second and host fourth-place Bradford at the right time, as the visitors' great form has fallen away with back-to-back defeats.

Freddie Draper

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+600

Win

300

I am going to take a chance on our former loanee, who had a great first half of the season. He's been going really well this season for Lincoln, and he might just score first.

19:45 Milton Keynes Dons v Bristol Rovers

Milton Keynes Dons

50 WIN

@-175

Win

The hosts are one of the big in-form sides in our division. They hammered Shrewsbury 5-0 here on Saturday and now face another poor side in the bottom three, who are in poor form. I have to go with the promotion chasers here.

Callum Paterson

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+500

Win

250

This player should be full of confidence tonight after scoring a hat-trick here on Saturday when the hosts hammered Shrewsbury 5-0.

19:45 Notts County v Swindon

Alassana Jatta

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+500

Lose

-50

This player is the main man for the hosts and a very talented player. He really knows where the net is. He scored a goal in the hosts' last two games; in one of them it was the first goal.

19:45 Salford City v Chesterfield

Salford City

50 WIN

@-109

Lose

-50

Another form-book pick here for me, with big-spending Salford on a very good run, seeing them climb up to second over the weekend. Chesterfield's current form has not been good, and their promotion chances are starting to dwindle.

Ryan Graydon

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+550

Lose

-50

I will take a chance on this guy scoring first for the hosts. They have recently signed him from Fleetwood for over half a million pounds. He was Fleetwood's best player, and he scored against us earlier this season.

19:45 Walsall v Crawley Town

Draw

50 WIN

@+259

Win

130

We are in poor form at home and couldn't beat Accrington on Saturday with our awful style of play, with very little possession of the ball. It seems to work on the road but not at home, and we could see another poor, boring draw again tonight.

Daniel Kanu

First Goalscorer

50 WIN

@+375

Lose

-50

I have to go with our best player this season, who has been a great loanee from Charlton and top scorer. He is the only player who looks like scoring of late.

19:00 Elliot Slessor v Ishpreet Singh Chadha

Elliot Slessor

Win Match

Slessor is having a good season, moving up the rankings. I don't know anything about his opponent, and I am guessing he is lowly ranked.

19:00 Jordan Brown v Jak Jones

Jak Jones

Win Match

50 WIN

@-357

There are over forty places between these two players tonight. Jones is in good form and, on his day, can beat the best. It's likely to be close tonight.

Wilson has been in great form of late, playing some superb form and he hammered Higgins in a final too. His opponent is always a player that can upset the best on his day, but it's Wilson for me.
