07:05 Wests Tigers v Newcastle Knights
Newcastle Knights
To Win
68 WIN
@+125
Lose
-68
With little between these two teams this season, it makes sense to take this 2.25 price. The basic errors that have cost Newcastle in recent seasons are greatly reduced this season.
05:00 Parramatta Eels v Gold Coast Titans
Gold Coast Titans
To Win
69 WIN
@+125
Win
86
Given the standings, Gold Coast will be very desperate here. Their players and staff will see this game as a realistic win against a pretty flawed Eels team.
03:07 VAN Canucks @ SJ Sharks
VAN Canucks
Money Line
64 WIN
@+175
Win
112
The Nucks were poor in their last game. I think they will respond strongly here. They are a capable enough team. A recent road win against Colorado shows how dangerous they can be.
VAN Canucks 1.50
Puck Line
136 WIN
@-133
Win
102
Good deal of sharp money is around for this selection, which I like and will follow here. I think the Nucks will be targeting this game against a pretty flawed San Jose team. The price on this line is a little high.

20:00 Oyonnax v Brive
Oyonnax
To Win
50 WIN
@-227
Win
22
Oyonnax at home is a tough ask for a pretty flawed Brive team, one which they will likely fail. The hosts should win the forward battle, which will lay the foundation for the win.
13:30 Hull KR v York Knights
York Knights
To Win
80 WIN
@+1800
Lose
-80
York are capable enough on their day, as proven by results in the Super League this season. Who knows??"Hull KR can blow hot and cold. An off day, which does happen from time to time, and this is a chance.
York Knights 32.50
Handicap (2-way)
132 WIN
@-117
Lose
-132
York are a solid test for a Hull KR team who is not ultra-consistent. York will do the basics well, have a solid attacking game, and a capable enough defense to stay within this big number.
08:05 Hurricanes v Blues
Hurricanes
To Win
54 WIN
@-277
Win
19
I feel the Blues are too disjointed right now to get the win at a tough venue like Wellington. The visitors are unlikely to win the forward battle, which will make it tough to get the result.
06:00 Auckland FC v Melbourne Victory
No (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
51 WIN
@+129
Lose
-51
Good deal of sharp money is around for this selection, which I like and will follow here. At home, Auckland are tough to break down. Both teams are pretty sound defensively, especially the hosts.
Auckland FC & No (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@+300
Lose
-50
Decent price here. It should be no bigger than 3.80 in my view, so getting value odds. Victory have shown me enough flaws this season, especially away, to be opposed here with a decent home team.
Auckland FC - Auckland FC
Half Time / Full Time
50 WIN
@+240
Lose
-50
Home losses have been rare for Auckland in recent seasons, including this season. However, in their last home game they put in their worst home performance this season, losing to lowly Macarthur. I can see a strong response here.
Auckland FC (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
120 WIN
@-124
Lose+Push
-60
I have more faith and trust in Auckland at home than Victory away. Plus, Auckland's prep for this game has been superior. Price and line are a tad generous here.
Auckland FC #2-0
55 WIN
@+1100
Lose
-55
Seems like a reasonably realistic score line. It's been rare for Auckland this season at home to concede more than one goal, and they have a decent attacking game. Price a little high here.
03:05 Moana Pasifika v Chiefs
Moana Pasifika
To Win
53 WIN
@+1800
Lose
-53
In the last three seasons, Moana has beaten three NZ sides, which shows they are capable on their day. This is a home game, they're not without a chance at big odds.
Moana Pasifika 31.50
Handicap
70 WIN
@-109
Lose
-70
Moana are not a bad side. Despite results suggesting otherwise this season, they have enough quality players to be an outside chance in this game.
01:10 DAL Mavericks @ SA Spurs
DAL Mavericks
Money Line
50 WIN
@+1100
Lose
-50
Not a game with much meaning for the Spurs, so perhaps they won't be as hungry and focused as they should be. Price is a tad generous/high here.

20:00 St Helens v Catalan Dragons
Catalan Dragons
To Win
60 WIN
@+234
Lose
-60
Saints have shown me enough flaws this season and in recent seasons to be opposed here at low odds against a Catalans team that is perhaps their strongest team in 2026 in their club's history.
Catalan Dragons 8.50
Handicap (2-way)
90 WIN
@-105
Lose
-90
given the teams named and the recent form of both teams it will be a tough ask for saints to win by 9 points or more. there is not much between these two teams so it makes sense to take the +8.5 headstart.
19:00 BC Dubai vs Anadolu Efes
Anadolu Efes
Money Line
50 WIN
@+300
Win
150
Another well-supported selection with the sharp money, which I like and will follow here. The gulf in class between these two teams is small. The price is too high here.
18:30 Biarritz v Nevers
Nevers
To Win
60 WIN
@+400
Win
240
Worth a go at this price. I have it no bigger than 4.60 here, which is where some bookies have it. The forward battle should be tight, giving Nevers a solid chance.
Nevers 12.50
Handicap
88 WIN
@-120
Win
73
The gulf in class between these two teams is small. The forward battle looks even, so a competitive performance from the visitors is on the cards.
18:30 Carcassonne v Grenoble
Grenoble
To Win
59 WIN
@+100
Lose
-59
The visitors can win the forward battle here, which will lay the foundation for the win. This price should be no bigger than 1.95 in my view.
18:30 Dax v Soyaux Angouleme
Soyaux Angouleme
To Win
53 WIN
@+550
Lose
-53
the visitors have a pretty decent attacking game and a solid forward pack. they are a better chance than this 6.50 price suggests here in my view.
Soyaux Angouleme 14.50
Handicap
67 WIN
@-120
Win
56
Dax has shaky recent form, and this is a big cap for them to overcome against a solid Soyaux Angoulême team who will do the basics well.
12:35 Ningbo Rockets vs Zhejiang Lions
Ningbo Rockets 5.50
Pointspread
104 WIN
@+104
Lose
-104
Good deal of sharp money is around for the home side here, which I like and will follow at what is a decent price. The hosts have a pretty potent offense, which can trouble the visitors who are only average defensively.
10:35 Central Coast Mariners v Brisbane Roar
Under 2.50
Total Goals
55 WIN
@+110
Lose
-55
Neither team is anything special attacking-wise, and both have had their struggles in that department this season. The good deal of sharp money around for this selection indicates the game will not be high scoring.
08:05 Highlanders v Brumbies
Highlanders
To Win
70 WIN
@+110
Lose
-70
Cashing out my Brumbies action by also taking the Highlanders, as I no longer like the Brumbies. The Brumbies are a huge betting plunge. More often than not these go up in smoke.
Brumbies 1.50
Handicap
300 WIN
@-133
Win
225
Brumbies should win the forward battle. The hosts' forward pack is pretty weak and the weakest out of all the NZ teams. Both back lines are decent. But with this advantage in the forwards, the Brumbies should be too strong.
03:37 VAN Canucks @ LA Kings
VAN Canucks
Money Line
65 WIN
@+229
Lose
-65
Don't really agree with this price. It should be no bigger than 3.20, so getting value odds. 20 goals scored for the Canucks in their last six games. They have recent wins against Colorado and Florida, two teams superior or of a similar standard to the Kings.
VAN Canucks 1.50
Puck Line
310 WIN
@-108
Lose
-310
Earlier this week the Canucks dismantled Colorado on Colorado's home ice. This takes some doing and shows that team morale must be decent. The Canucks have scored 20 goals in their last six games, which is decent. They have the attacking game to hurt the Kings, who are only average defensively.
03:10 LA Lakers @ GS Warriors
LA Lakers
Money Line
60 WIN
@+114
Win
69
I like the amount of sharp money that is around for this selection, which I will follow here at what is an attractive enough price. The Lakers have a pretty potent offense that can hurt the Warriors, who are only average defensively.
00:07 FLA Panthers @ OTT Senators
FLA Panthers
Money Line
100 WIN
@+320

Don't really agree with this price. I think it should be no bigger than 3.90 here. Florida has the attacking game to test and trouble the Sens, who are nothing special defensively.

Generous price and line here. The gulf in class between these two teams is small. Too much value here to pass up. Both teams have decent attacking games. Florida should be respected here.

This price has gotten too high here. The Islanders have shown me enough flaws this season to be opposed at low odds here. Toronto has the attacking game to hurt an average Islanders defense.
10:50 Canterbury Bulldogs v Penrith Panthers
Penrith Panthers
To Win
76 WIN
@-769
Lose
-76
The gulf in class between these two teams this season is large. It's been evident all season. Sure, strange things can happen in sport, but this Penrith outfit is very classy and I don't see it tonight.
00:05 Athletics @ NY Yankees
Athletics
Money Line
53 WIN
@+179
Win
95
This price has risen too high in my view. The 2.65 price it was 12 hours ago was far more accurate for the win probability, so it's getting value odds. The visitors have a solid batting lineup that needs to be respected.
Athletics 1.50
Run Line
67 WIN
@-114
Win
58
The Athletics have a solid batting lineup, and this makes them dangerous. This price and line is too high. The Yankees do not have a great record in recent seasons when heavily favored.

Toronto has failed to fire of late, but are a high-quality team and remain dangerous. They have the quality of players to turn things around and get a favorable starting pitcher matchup today.

The hosts get a favorable starting pitcher matchup today. While they have failed to fire of late, with the quality of players they have, they are more than capable of turning things around.
02:37 EDM Oilers @ UTA Mammoth
UTA Mammoth
Money Line
77 WIN
@-133

The Oilers are the more flawed team, especially defensively. With home advantage for Utah, these factors should be telling for the end result. The price is a tad high here.
UTA Mammoth -1.50

53 WIN
@+179

-53
When Utah has won this season, a high number of the wins have been by two goals or more. They are a streaky team, both good and bad. So this at nice odds has some appeal.
01:07 CGY Flames @ DAL Stars
CGY Flames

53 WIN

-53
The Flames have a decent record this season when they have been big underdogs, as they are today. Clearly a tag they enjoy. I have this price no bigger than 3.00 here, so these are value odds.
00:07 FLA Panthers @ MTL Canadiens
FLA Panthers
Money Line
67 WIN
@+240

I have this price no bigger than 3.20 here, so this is value odds. The hosts have shaky recent form, and I don't trust them as strong favourites. I will gladly go the other way at attractive odds.

The price here on the Habs is too short. I will gladly go the other way at attractive/generous odds. This game has more meaning for Florida, so maybe they will want it more. The hosts have shaky recent form.

Don't really agree with this price. It should be no bigger than 2.85 here, so getting value odds. The Athletics' record in recent seasons against the glamour teams in the league is decent when they have been heavy underdogs.

The heavy underdog tag is clearly something the Athletics enjoy and thrive on, especially when playing the glamour teams. Their record in recent seasons under these circumstances speaks for itself.

City at home with an ideal prep should have too much class for a pretty flawed CCM team who have been struggling defensively. In their last 4 games they have conceded 8 goals. City have the attacking game to hurt them.
Melbourne City #2-0
51 WIN
@+750

CCM are pretty ordinary defensively. It's realistic to think City can put two past them. City at home don't concede many. And In their last three games played they have only let in one goal. Two out of the three they kept the opposition scoreless.

Favorable starting pitcher matchup here for the home team. Surely this is a series they will really be up for playing at home versus the league's most hyped team. After a couple of poor performances in a row, I expect a strong response here from a quality team.
