00:10 ATL Hawks @ DET Pistons
DET Pistons

@1.40

DET Pistons continue to set the pace at the top of the table, nine places higher than ATL Hawks. They have won their last three home games and beat ATL Hawks the last time they welcomed them.

CLE Cavaliers

On their last six visits to WAS, the Cavaliers have come away with a win. Bottom-of-the-table WAS Wizards have lost their last two home games, so there's every chance the Cavaliers will once again leave with a win under their belt.

20:00 West Brom v Sheff Utd
Sheff Utd
50 WIN
@3.00
Lose
-50
Sheff Utd might be below West Brom by two points, but they appear to be the more in-form team. From their last five Championship games they have picked up twelve points, while West Brom have only managed four points. Although West Brom have gone six home games without defeat, if Sheff Utd continue to play as they do, the home supporters could see their team lose.
19:45 Lecce v Pisa
Lecce
50 WIN
@2.50
Win
75
Pisa are in the relegation zone and Lecce are one place and three points above them, outside the relegation. The last four league away games played by Pisa have seen them lose once and draw the last three. Lecce won their most recent home game, which was against Torino, who are one place above them. The last time Lecce welcomed Pisa they won without conceding a goal.
19:00 Ross Smith vs Andreas Harrysson
Ross Smith
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
@1.25
Open

Ross Smith is ranked one hundred and twelve places higher than the bearded Andreas Harrysson. In his last match he lost to Luke Littler, but prior to that he only dropped one game in a best-of-eleven match against Ron Meikle, who is ranked at sixty-two.
18:45 6:45 Dundalk
Indigo Dream
Daily Racing

@1.53
Win
26
A field of thirteen go to the starting tape with four of them having their first-ever run on a racecourse. Of those with previous experience, Indigo Dream appears to be the best. She finished third on her all-weather debut and can hopefully build upon that this evening.
17:00 5:00 Southwell
Stateira
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@1.62
Lose
-50
After a break of about four months, Stateira returned to racing and won at Newcastle by over four lengths last month. That was over the same distance as today. Provided she is in the same or better form, Stateira could complete back-to-back wins despite the eight-pound rise in the ratings.

Latenightpass

@8.00
Lose
-50
Latenightpass won this race in 2023 when trained by Dan Skelton with Gina Andrews riding. Today the same jockey is onboard, but with a different trainer, and he races off a mark two pounds higher than in 2023. Latenightpass is two pounds lower than when finishing third in this race last year. Following wind surgery, Latenightpass finished seventh on his seasonal reappearance at Cheltenham, where he was going well until running out of steam. With that run behind him and a two-pound drop in weight, Latenightpass should run much better today.

Ryan Searle

Ryan Searle is ranked fifty-one places higher than his opponent. The last two meetings between these players have both been won by Ryan Searle. With Landman coming into this game on the back of two defeats, take Searle to prevail once again.
01:10 LA Clippers @ HOU Rockets
HOU Rockets
Money Line
50 WIN
@1.25

HOU Rockets are third in the table, whilst LA Clippers are third from bottom. They have won three of their last five games, whilst LA Clippers have suffered four defeats in their last five games.
LA Clippers 9.50
Pointspread

@1.91
Win
46
The bookies have HOU Rockets favourites based on current form, but in the last two meetings between these two sides it is the LA Clippers who have won. Although they have lost their last two games, each defeat was by nine points or less. With both of those games being played away, I'm willing to believe that the LA Clippers can make this a close affair.

21:00 Luke Littler vs Darius Labanauskas
Luke Littler
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
@1.03
Win
1
Current World Champion Luke Littler should have little trouble dispatching Darius Labanauskas, who is ranked ninety-four places lower. Littler showed he is in good form by recently winning the Players Championship Finals.
20:00 Basel v Aston Villa
Aston Villa
Aston Villa have double the points that Basel have on the table. They have taken three points from the two away games they have played in this competition. Having won their last two away Premiership games, back Villa to get all three points.
20:00 Celta Vigo v Bologna
Celta Vigo
Having won away at Real Madrid in La Liga at the weekend, it will be a major disappointment for the fans of Celta Vigo if they don't beat Bologna now playing at home. Although they have lost their last two home games, the confidence injected into the side following that win against Real Madrid could very well get them over the line.
20:00 Celtic v Roma
Roma
If Martin O'Neill was still in charge, I would have gone for a Celtic win, but he has been replaced by the person the board feel will take Celtic to where they want to be. However, it didn't start well, with a home defeat to Hearts at the weekend. AS Roma are higher of the two teams in the table and, on their last visit to Scotland, came away with all three points when beating Rangers by scoring two goals without conceding. They come into this game on the back of two defeats but have every chance of returning to winning ways against a Celtic team who are not playing as they should.
20:00 Michael Smith vs Lisa Ashton
Michael Smith
Win Match 2-way
50 WIN
@1.07
Win

Former world champion may have slipped down the rankings, but he should still be good enough to beat Lisa Ashton. She has lost to him in each of their last four meetings.
20:00 Shelbourne v Crystal Palace
Crystal Palace
50 WIN
@1.18
Win
9
Premiership side Crystal Palace should have little trouble in seeing off Shelbourne, who play their football in the Premier Division in Ireland. With Palace currently fourth in the Premiership and having won their last two away Premiership games, they should have a comfortable victory.
19:15 Stuart Bingham v Jack OBrien
Stuart Bingham
Win Match
50 WIN
@1.20
Win
10
Stuart Bingham may have lost four of his last five matches, but in this one-frame shoot-out I’m backing the former world champion to win. In his last match, which he lost to Scott Donaldson, that was only after he won the opening five frames in a best-of-eleven match. If he can once again make a quick start, he can win the one frame required to make it through to the next round.
17:45 FC Utrecht v Nottm Forest
Nottm Forest
FC Utrecht have struggled so far in this competition, taking just one point. Premiership side Nottingham Forest have eight points. They have every chance of getting the win after drawing both previous away matches in this competition against teams higher in the table than today's opponents.
13:58 1:55 Warwick

16
On her chasing debut, Diva Luna turned on the style and trounced the Nicky Henderson-trained Joyeuse by nineteen lengths to win at the first time of asking in this new sphere. If that was no fluke, then every chance this Ben Pauling-trained mare can win again off an eight-pound higher mark.

@1.29

14
Shaun Murphy is by far the better player of the two. He reached the semi-finals of the UK Championship, which suggests he is likely to progress to the next round. These two have never met before. Whelan is currently playing on the Q Tour.
20:00 Club Brugge v Arsenal
Arsenal
So far Arsenal have a perfect record with five wins from their five games. Club Brugge have only collected four points from their five games. Starting from their defeat at Aston Villa, expect Arsenal to turn on the style tonight against an opponent who lost their last home game.
20:00 Real Madrid v Man City
Real Madrid
Real Madrid are the higher of the two teams with twelve points compared to Man City, who have ten. Real Madrid had a shocking game at the weekend in La Liga, losing at home to Celta Vigo and had three people sent off. The last time they welcomed Man City was in last season's competition, which they won by a couple of goals. The last away games played by Man City have finished as follows: won, lost, won, lost, won. So I expect that sequence to continue with a loss this evening.
19:45 Crewe v Newport County
Crewe
Newport County are really struggling this season and are currently bottom of the table, fifteen points behind Crewe. Newport County have lost their last three away games, including an FA Cup tie against non-league Boreham Wood.
19:45 Ipswich v Stoke
Ipswich
These two teams have played the same number of games, and Ipswich have a one-point advantage over Stoke. Stoke have lost their last two away games. Ipswich won their last home game, so I'm taking them to get the win.
18:30 6:30 Kempton
Nations Hope
Daily Racing
50 WINNAP
@1.11
Win
5
Nations Hope has to give seven pounds to his four rivals following an impressive debut where he was not over-extended and still won by five lengths. For three of the field this will be their first time on a racecourse. Unless one of those runs a mighty big race, this can go to Nations Hope for the James Doyle and Charlie Appleby combination.
17:30 AEK vs Patrioti Levice
AEK
Money Line
50 WIN

Both teams have played four games. AEK Athens are the higher-ranked team after winning all four of their games, while Patrioti Levice have won two and lost two.

@1.83
Win
41
These two teams last met toward the end of October when AEK traveled to Patrioti Levice and returned with a two-point win. So if Patrioti Levice can play as they did then, every chance this starting advantage will be enough to secure the win.
15:30 Martin ODonnell v Tom Ford

Inter Milan
50 WIN
@2.30
Lose
-50
Each team has played five games in this competition. Inter Milan have twelve points, while Liverpool have nine. Inter won their weekend game at home to Como, while Liverpool earned a point away at Leeds. Liverpool are struggling to win on the road. Their last four away games were all Premiership matches: they lost two, drew one, and won one. Inter's last four home league games have seen them take nine points. With Liverpool's current form, it appears Inter could get their first-ever win against Liverpool when playing in front of their home fans.
19:45 Preston v Coventry
Coventry
50 WIN
@1.95
Lose
-50
Following their away defeat at Ipswich, Coventry saw their lead at the top of the table cut to seven points. Tonight they face another tricky away game. Preston are fifth in the table, level on points with Ipswich. Their last two home games saw them draw with Wrexham and lose against Blackburn. They have a good record against Coventry, having won four and drawn one of the last five games when welcoming Coventry to their ground. However, with the Ipswich defeat ringing in their ears, I'm sure Frank Lampard will have his players up for this game. Hopefully the game against Ipswich was just a blip, and Coventry, who have taken six points from their last three away games, can return to winning ways.

AC Milan

@1.80

40
A win for AC Milan would move them level on points with Napoli at the top of the table. Torino are down in thirteenth, with fourteen fewer points. Torino has not been a happy hunting ground for AC Milan of late, as they have lost on their last three visits. Torino lost their last home game to fifth-placed Como, conceding five goals in the process. With AC Milan winning their last away game at Inter Milan, they appear to have every chance of winning at Torino.
01:10 OKC Thunder @ UTA Jazz
OKC Thunder

@1.20

OKC Thunder continue to set the pace and remain top of the table. They have now won fourteen games in a row. UTA Jazz are down in eleventh, and the last time they welcomed OKC Thunder, they lost.
UTA Jazz 11.50
Pointspread

@1.91

Since losing at home to the OKC Thunder in November, the UTA Jazz have played four home games, winning two and losing two. Although they suffered a defeat in excess of thirty points the last time they met, if those two wins have helped put some confidence into the UTA Jazz players, then there is every chance their defeat can be much narrower this time around.

@6.00

Judd Trump has reached the final of this tournament four times in the last fourteen years. He is the defending champion and also won it back in 2011. These longer matches usually bring out the best in Judd Trump. The last person to successfully defend their crown was Ronnie O'Sullivan back in 2018. I'm taking Trump to do the same as 'The Rocket' and win this tournament again.
15:30 Gateshead v Walsall
Walsall
National League: Gateshead have lost their last six games, three of which were at home. League One: Walsall are top of League Two and have won their last four away games.
15:00 Celtic v Hearts
Hearts
After Brendan Rodgers left, Martin O'Neill did a very good job as the interim manager and got things moving in the right direction. They have now appointed a new manager, Wilfried Nancy, who is yet to prove himself at this level. Hearts have been below par of late, but they beat Celtic earlier this season. If they can rediscover their early-season form, they look to have every chance of doing so again.

All eyes will be on the Willie Mullins-trained Majborough, who last season raced four times over fences, winning three and finishing third in the other. The race he finished third in was the Arkle at the Cheltenham Festival, where his jumping let him down. He was back to his best in his next race, winning by fourteen lengths at Punchestown in May. He is a former Triumph Hurdle winner and, provided he jumps well, should take all the beating.

In this tournament, the four matches that Judd Trump has won have all been won by at least two frames. He won his semi-final by three frames against Neil Robertson, who is ranked third in the world.

12:30 Slough v Macclesfield FC

17:30 Leeds v Liverpool
Leeds
In their respective last games, Leeds beat Chelsea at home, whilst Liverpool, also at home, drew with Sunderland. This season Leeds have played seven home Premiership games, which have seen them win three, draw two, and lose two. Liverpool have also played seven away Premiership fixtures, which resulted in three wins and four defeats. Two of those wins came in their opening two away games. With Liverpool lower in the table, take Leeds to once again raise their game and heap more pain on Arne Slot and his team.

15:00 Bournemouth v Chelsea
Chelsea
Chelsea are the higher of the two teams in fourth, and Bournemouth are down in fourteenth, five points behind them. I think it is fair to say that Bournemouth are going through a tough spell, having only taken one point from their last five Premiership games. Chelsea came up short away at Leeds in their last match and will be looking for all three points to hold their position in the top four of the table. Prior to losing at Leeds, Chelsea had won their three previous away Premiership games. They won this fixture last season, and I expect them to do so again.

15:00 Cheltenham v Buxton
Cheltenham
Cheltenham play their football in League Two, while Buxton play in National League North. Cheltenham have won two of their last three home fixtures, which included a win against League One side Bradford City in the FA Cup. In the league, Buxton have lost two of their last three away games.
15:00 Ipswich v Coventry
Coventry
For a team that are ten points clear at the top of the table and have scored fifty goals in their eighteen Championship games, this looks a generous price for a Coventry win. Ipswich have played one game less than Coventry and are sixteen points behind them. With Coventry winning five of their last six away Championship games, I’m backing them to get the win.
15:00 Man City v Sunderland
Sunderland
50 WIN
@11.50
Lose
-50
In their last game, Sunderland were away at Liverpool, where they were leading with ten minutes to go, eventually having to settle for a point. That performance must give them an outside chance of all three points at Manchester City. City have only lost two games at home this season. One was against Tottenham in the Premier League and the other was a Champions League game against Leverkusen. Sunderland have a poor record when visiting Manchester City, but being only five points behind them in the table, at these odds I'm willing to give them a shout.

For a nine-year-old, Mr Vango has not raced in that many races, as this will only be his fourth season of racing. He has won twice on his first race of the season, and the other time he finished third. This will be his first time over the National fences, so hopefully he will have schooled well and take them in his stride. He carried twelve stone to victory off a mark of one hundred and forty-three when last seen on a racecourse, winning the Midlands Grand National at Uttoxeter. He again carries twelve stone, but this time off a mark of one hundred and fifty-two, and this time runs over a mile less. With regular partner Jack Tudor in the saddle, Mr Vango has every chance to run a good race on his seasonal reappearance.

Lulamba's only defeat in five races was in last year's Triumph Hurdle at Cheltenham, where he finished second to rank outsider Pinross by a neck. He started this season by winning a beginners' Chase at Exeter by ten lengths. Lulamba is in receipt of six pounds from his three rivals, so he should be winning this to justify his place as second favourite in the current Arkle betting market.

Top of the table, Arsenal travel to third-place Aston Villa, where they have won three of the last four meetings. Villa could only manage to beat bottom-of-the-table Wolves by a single goal in their last home match. Based on that, this looks a decent price for an Arsenal win.
