19:00 Wu Yize v Kyren Wilson

Wu Yize

Win Match

50 WIN

@+110

Lose

-50

Despite Kyren going 4-1 up on Neil Robertson yesterday, he struggled in the end to win 6-5, coming from 5-4 down. Wu Yize had no trouble defeating Xiao Guodong, another player that I follow, 6-0. Based on both performances, I have to give Wu the overall advantage and the win.

-50

Despite Kyren winning both of their previous matches, I feel confident that, on recent form, Wu Yize could upset the odds here. His 6-0 win last time looks better than Kyren's win against Neil Robertson. Wu, having improved considerably, will not afford Kyren the chances that Neil gave him. I think Wu will win, with or without the handicap.

15:00 Charlton v Sheff Utd

Sheff Utd

50 WIN

@+110

Lose

-50

This is a match of changing fortunes, with Sheffield Utd having started the season in poor form but turning that form around. Charlton have been letting things get away from them of late and will do well to get any result here. United are the pick to maintain their form.

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@-133

-50

Sheffield Utd have hit 14 goals in their last 5 and Charlton only 5. I have bet "Yes" on this match, as both sides have a negative goal difference and are vulnerable.

Despite being away, I had to go for Yes and a Sheffield win. They have been scoring plenty of goals of late but have been letting a few in as well.

15:00 Chelsea v Brentford

Brentford

50 WIN

@+325

Open

A win for Brentford would see them challenge Liverpool for that all-important 4th place. It looks a forlorn hope today with them facing Burnley, but they could stay in touch with a win. As Chelsea has been losing the plot of late, I have gone for the upset win.

15:00 Leeds v Fulham

Fulham

50 WIN

@+250

Open

Despite playing at Leeds, I think that Fulham are in better current form and could upset the home team. They are 13??"10 up on Leeds overall with 7 draws. Although there is not much in their goal differences, Fulham have a to -8 for Leeds. All that points to a Fulham win.

15:00 Liverpool v Burnley

Liverpool

50 WIN

@-400

Open

Liverpool are 15??"3 up on Burnley overall and haven't lost a match to them since 2021. Burnley are struggling, second from bottom, and this really should be a penalty kick for Liverpool, helping them to maintain their position in the top four.

15:00 Sunderland v Crystal Palace

Draw

50 WIN

@+220

Open

With only 2 draws to 2 losses and 2 points between these teams, it would not surprise me to see the draw. Sunderland are just ahead, but their goal differences are virtually identical. I think that the draw is the only fair result this time.

15:00 Tottenham v West Ham

Tottenham

50 WIN

@-136

Open

Despite Spurs being 22-14 up on West Ham overall, they haven't exactly been covering themselves in glory of late. Their current form, however, could be enough to beat a team that are struggling for any results and are third from bottom.

13:00 Judd Trump v John Higgins

Judd Trump

Win Match

50 WIN

@-285

Lose

-50

Up until March 2019, John had a huge 20??"8 win advantage over Judd, but he has had that turned around since, and the scores now stand at 26??"20 to Judd in all competitions. John has only won 4 matches from their last 22 and has started to let errors creep into his game. He did well to beat Zhao Xintong last time, but Judd has been superb so far and is the pick.

12:30 Bradford v Cardiff

Cardiff

50 WIN

@+129

Win

Lying in first and third in the division, this match could go either way. Bradford are 5??"3 up overall on Cardiff, but the trend that as I vs the vote in the last 5 times they have played has gone to the away side. Cardiff have a better goal difference and are the tip to win.

12:30 Coventry v Leicester

Coventry

50 WIN

@-166

Win

Coventry are scoring around 2 goals for every 1 they let in. They have a superb defence but have been letting things slip of late. As Leicester have a minus 1 goal difference, I have to go for a Coventry win even though the price is short.

50 WIN

@-200

Ipswich are 14-10 up on Blackburn overall, and despite drawing away last time, they look the ones to beat. They are going really well and would not want to let this chance to close on the leaders slip.

12:30 Man Utd v Man City

Man City

50 WIN

@+100

Lose

-50

Both City and Utd have had trouble scoring goals despite creating chances. Both have much the best goals-for/against record, and City's defense is better than Utd's. Their overall totals are very similar. The thing that sways my vote is the away side has won 21 of their matches. Again it is 11??"10 to City, but current form suggests a draw or, my pick, a City win.

12:30 Watford v Millwall

Watford

50 WIN

@+110

Lose

-50

These two are just in the play-off places in fifth and sixth, with Millwall just ahead. As one of my teams to follow, I have to back Watford for the win. They have been underestimated so far but have a +8 goal difference compared to +4 for Millwall. A win will see the places flip-flop, but in their last seven matches Millwall won 5, drew 1.

@+240

Lose

-50

Wigan are 12-9 up on Bolton but have lost their last two meetings. Both sides have been letting things slip of late, but I have gone for the draw here, having drawn 11 times over the years. The overall picture suggests a low-scoring match, possibly 0-0 or 1-1.

20:00 West Brom v Middlesbrough

Middlesbrough

50 WIN

@+179

Win

Both of these have been letting things slip of late, with both losing 4 of their last 6 matches. I still think that Middlesbrough are the ones to beat, being 23??"14 up overall with 13 draws. They have won the last 4 meetings 1??"0, 1??"0, 2??"0 and 2??"1, so I don't expect a huge win for either side, but a Boro win.

Yes (BTTS)

Both Teams to Score

50 WIN

@-124

Win

This could go either way, with West Brom still scoring a goal??"win, lose, or draw. With Boro having been shut out in four of their last six matches, it tempers enthusiasm for Yes here, but overall I had to go for Yes.

Middlesbrough & Yes (Result + BTTS)

@+450

With West Brom still scoring the odd goal, win, lose, or draw, this could go either way. Boro have been shut out in four of their last six league matches and have been letting things slip. Overall I had to go for a Boro win, with yes having won their last four meetings and shutting West Brom out in three.

19:00 Neil Robertson v Kyren Wilson

Kyren Wilson

Win Match

50 WIN

@+110

Win

These two have played 19 times, with the record at 10-9 to Kyren in all competitions. Ten matches were in the Championship League and the score there was 5-5, so I have discounted those as they can be deceptive. Neil won their last meeting 4-0 but is still 5-4 down overall and had what looked like an easier match last time. As Kyren beat a good player last time, I have gone for him to win.

Kyren Wilson 1.50

Handicap Betting

50 WIN

@-153

Win

As the ±0.5 part of the bet is win-only at a lower price, I have bet Kyren to win with the +1.5 handicap start. I have taken Kyren to win anyway, but he might lose by only 1 frame. At 1.65 with the start, it could prove a value bet.

This one won 3 of 4 from January to June, with races 1 and 4 over C/D off a high of 133. He has had a busy period and was PU on his final run here off 4 lb higher. He has been freshened for 6 months, and the return here off 2 lb lower puts him only 2 lb higher than his last win. Worth a nap at 12/1.

This one has finished 2nd over 6f on two occasions and won four over 7f in his last six races at Dundalk. He goes up 5 lb to an all-time 78 but could go well under Hollie Doyle on his first run here over 7f from what is usually a good draw in 10.

Not the fastest out, but Trap 1 is a regular winner and in fast times. Barring a bump at the first bend, Trap 1 could turn handy and go on to win.
