This month these two teams have played each other twice. The first game saw SA Spurs win by eleven points, and they followed that up with a win by thirteen points. So take SA Spurs to complete a hat-trick of wins against POR Trail Blazers in the month of April.

When these two teams met three days ago, BOS Celtics won by thirty-two points. It's difficult to see a different result tonight due to such a short period of time between the two games.

19:45 Cambridge Utd v Grimsby
Cambridge Utd
50 WIN
@-109
Lose
-50
A win for Cambridge United against eighth-place Grimsby would consolidate their place in the top three automatic promotion positions. They have taken eleven points from their last five home games and have been very strong at home all season. With Grimsby losing two of their last four away games, take Cambridge United to get the win.
19:45 Cheltenham v Tranmere
Cheltenham
50 WIN
@+139
Lose
-50
Cheltenham appear to be finishing the season strongly, having taken ten points from their last four games. Tranmere are fifteen points behind Cheltenham and have only taken two points from their last nine away games.
19:45 Coventry v Portsmouth
Coventry
50 WIN
@-149
Win
34
With a return to Premiership football next season, there may be something of a party atmosphere at this game tonight. Coventry should now have the nerves and shackles lifted off them. If that is so, then every chance the home fans will be celebrating a win against eighteenth-place Portsmouth.
19:45 Southampton v Bristol City
Southampton
50 WIN
@-238
Lose
-50
Southampton are making a late charge for an automatic promotion spot to next season's Premiership. They have won their last six home games, including a win against Arsenal in the FA Cup. Another home win tonight could see them move up to second in the table.
19:45 Stockport v Mansfield
Stockport
50 WIN
@-181
Lose
-50
A win for Stockport would almost guarantee them a place in the play-offs. They have won their last four home games. Against fifteenth-placed Mansfield, Stockport have every chance of another home win.
19:45 West Brom v Watford
West Brom
50 WIN
@-117
Win
43
West Brom are looking to move further clear of the relegation zone as they welcome Watford who are eight points ahead of them in the table. Watford have lost their last three away Championship games, conceding at least two goals in each of those games. West Brom have taken five points from their last three home games and in two of those matches they scored at least two goals. West Brom won this fixture last season and taking them to do so again.

Judd Trump has won six of the last seven meetings between these two players. Trump reached the final of the recent Tour Championship, where he lost to Xintong.

@+600
Lose
-50
These two have only met once in the World Championship. That was a semi-final match back in 2019, which Trump won by six frames. On his day, Gary Wilson is able to cause Trump some issues. But with Trump winning their last meeting by three frames, I expect him to do so again.
19:00 Shaun Murphy v Fan Zhengyi
Shaun Murphy
Win Match
50 WIN
@-499
Win
10
Former world champion Shaun Murphy should have too much class and Crucible experience to see off his Chinese opponent, who is ranked fifty-five places lower than himself. He won their last meeting, which meant that of the four times they have played each other, Murphy has won three of them.
Shaun Murphy 10-7
Frame Betting
50 WIN
@+600
Lose
-50
Two of the three victories that Shaun Murphy has against Fan Zhengyi have been by three frames. They were over much shorter matches than today's. Given the ease with which Fan has won his three qualifying matches, another three-frame win for Murphy looks possible.

Peifan Lei
Win Match

Wu Yize is the higher-ranked player of the two but comes into this match on the back of two defeats. These two players have only met once before, and Peifan Lei won.

These two met in the Scottish Open back in 2024. That match was best of seventeen frames. Peifan Lei won that match by four frames, so taking him to do so again in this slightly longer match.

20:00 8:00 Newcastle
Lord Capulet
Daily Racing
25 EW
@+750
Win
225
Lord Capulet's opening three races of 2026 were all winning ones. Having won off a mark of sixty-four, he then went up four pounds for his next race, which was at Southwell. He ran well to finish third, beaten two lengths. He then returned to Newcastle and, racing off the same mark, finished a very disappointing tenth of eleven runners when being sent off favourite. His three wins at Newcastle this year were one from stall four and two from stall eight. His last race, where he disappointed, was from stall twelve. Today Lord Capulet is drawn in stall five and, providing he settles well, he could once again be challenging for the honours at the end of the race.
20:00 Crystal Palace v West Ham
Crystal Palace
50 WIN
@+160
Lose
-50
The last three Premier League games played by Crystal Palace have seen them take seven points. Palace are currently thirteenth in the table. The last away Premiership games played by West Ham have seen them collect three points due to a win at Fulham. They are currently seventeenth in the table. The last six home games played by Crystal Palace have been a mixture of Premiership and Conference League matches, which have resulted in four wins and two draws. Their strong home form suggests they can get the better of West Ham, who are just one place above the relegation zone.
19:00 Kyren Wilson v Stan Moody
Stan Moody
Win Match
50 WIN
@+300

-50
Both these players have won six of their last ten matches. Former world champion Kyren Wilson is ranked forty-two places higher than his opponent. However, Stan Moody is an up-and-coming player who is sure to have put in plenty of preparation for this tournament. Moody beat Wilson the last time they met.

Since moving to racing over the larger obstacles, the form of Wolfburg appears to have improved. His last four races have seen him finish in the top three, with two of those runs being wins. He is up eleven pounds for his latest nine-length success. However, he didn't appear overly extended in winning that race, so every chance he can go in again.
14:30 John Higgins v Allister Carter
John Higgins
Win Match
50 WIN
@-200

John Higgins is ranked eighteen places higher than his opponent, Ali Carter. They played each other twice in 2025, with each player winning once. Over this longer format, Higgins is the more consistent player of the two.

-50
Ding Junhui comes into this match having lost his last four matches. One of those was against Marco Fu, who is ranked sixty places below David Gilbert. Gilbert is only ranked nine places lower than Ding, so if Ding continues to struggle with his form, Gilbert could reach the next round.

Mark Williams is ranked sixty-three places higher than his opponent. He is a three time world champion and should have to much experience at the crucible to allow Kowalski to produce a shock result.

In their last five meetings, Zhou Yuelong has won three of them. The latest was in the Scottish Open in December last year. He may well handle the pressure of World Championship first-round nerves better than his opponent to gain the win.

The last five home games played by Bayern Munich in all competitions have finished with at least three goals being scored. Earlier this season Bayern Munich put five past VfB Stuttgart, so now they are playing at home; another goal fest could be on the cards.
16:30 Man City v Arsenal
Arsenal
50 WIN
@+350
Lose
-50
Top of the table, Arsenal travel to Man City. Arsenal have a six-point lead over Man City, who have a game in hand and a slightly lower goal difference. Arsenal have been so close to Premiership glory all season, and surely they cannot once again throw that away. For the last two seasons this fixture has finished in a draw. Arsenal have won their last two away Premiership games. Man City's last home Premiership game saw them draw against lowly Nottingham Forest. This match could well decide where the Premiership title goes at the end of the season, so stick with Arsenal to withstand the Man City onslaught and get the win.

@+300

-50
All the pressure will be on the higher-ranked Barry Hawkins. Matthew Stevens is one of those players who probably never reached his full potential in the professional game. On his day, he is a dangerous player. Having beaten former world champion Stuart Bingham in the last round of qualifying, Stevens made it through to the next round.

@+400

Sunderland have taken seven points from their last three away games. With Villa reaching the semi-final of the Europa League and a seven-point cushion for Champions League football next season, they may underperform, leaving the way open for Sunderland to get the win.

A win for Everton would see them move up to sixth in the table, two points behind Liverpool, who are fifth. In all competitions, Liverpool have lost their last four away games, while Everton have won their last two home Premiership games.

Nottm Forest
50 WIN
@-200

With Burnley looking set to be relegated at the end of the season and Forest still requiring points to move clear of the relegation zone, taking Forest to get the win. Forest should be full of confidence as their mid week win against Porto saw them reach the semi-finals of the Europa League.

LA Lakers have won their last three games, while the HOU Rockets have lost only one of their last five. LA Lakers have won two of the last five meetings between these teams at home. So a five-point starting advantage could be enough to see them over the line.

Chelsea were poor in their last home game, which was against Manchester City. That defeat meant that Chelsea had lost five of their last six home games. The only win they had was an FA Cup tie against Port Vale, who are bottom of the League One table. Manchester United are three places higher in the table than what appears to be an out-of-form Chelsea.

Brighton have a chance to boost their chances of playing in Europe next season while making the reality of relegation for Tottenham a step closer. Tottenham have taken just one point from their last five home Premiership games. Brighton have won their last three away games, and the three teams they played were all higher in the table than Tottenham.

The stamina of Kap Vert has to be taken on trust, as the furthest he has raced is just under a mile shorter than today's marathon trip. Kap Vert won his last race, going away from the rest of the field. That race was a mile shorter than today, but he clearly saw that trip out very well. He has won on good and soft ground. Kap Vert receives weight from the majority of this field and can, hopefully, jump well and run a big race.

In their last five Premiership games, Leeds have collected five points, while Wolves have collected seven points. Leeds may still be high following their win at Manchester United on Monday evening. Wolves have won on three of their last five visits to Leeds. So, although Wolves are below Leeds in the table, take them to get a much-needed three points.

Following two consecutive defeats, Bournemouth have moved three points above Newcastle in the Premiership table.

They won this fixture last season and appear to have every chance of doing so again.

Former 2000 Guineas favourite is on a recovery mission following his poor performance at the Curragh just over two weeks ago. Prior to that defeat he had won his two races as a two-year-old. The poor performance may well have been due to the soft-to-heavy ground conditions. With ground conditions due to be much more to his liking, taking Albert Einstein to bounce back and win and then be supplemented for the 2000 Guineas following a clerical/computer error which saw him being scratched.

Andrey Rublev is ranked seventy-three places higher than Hamad Medjedovic. Rublev is yet to drop a set in this tournament. Even though Medjedovic is playing well and knocking out players ranked higher than himself, expect him to come up short against a player who appears to be up to the task of going all the way in this tournament.

Fulham

The last five home games played by Brentford in the Premier League have resulted in three draws and two defeats. Fulham are only three points behind Brentford, so a win today would draw them level on points. Last season Fulham won this fixture, so I'm backing them to do so again.

The last time these two met was in 2020, and Liam Highfield won without dropping a frame. Defending champions at times struggle in the opening round and have been known to exit the tournament at this stage. Therefore, I'm taking Highfield to do just that.

In the qualifying rounds, Liam Highfield had a five-frame victory against Stephen Maguire. If the current world champion succumbs to Crucible nerves in the defence of his title, then there is every chance Highfield can win at least five frames.
