@+2200
Lose
-50
Mossend Meg will need luck in the run to the first two bends, but she knows her way around here. Won 2, beaten a neck in her last 3 starts in graded company. This is definitely stepping into tougher territory. When I priced this up I had her 8/1. She could be totally outclassed, but she has early pace and she stays. Got a slow starter on her inner and a vacant trap on her outer, which should give her a clear run. She's no 22/1 shot on value ??" she's the pick.

Como have been a big surprise this season, mainly thanks to their defensive prowess. But they meet a stronger side than what they've faced in recent weeks. Although AC look stronger in attack, they look vulnerable defensively.

Nonetheless, meet fifteenth despite recent H2H record: 3 wins, 1 draw, 1 loss against the visitors. I'm opposing them, but can see them scoring. They've lost 2 of their last 4 and meet a side who won 3 of their last 4. 6/1 looks a good price.

WASTEHOUSE MIX is 3 from 9. Sole wide seed should have far too much pace for this, OR he stays well too. Holds these on the clock. Envisaged him vying; odds on, so there's a little bit of value at 5/4.

The dog on 4 could be the class act, but I've a feeling he won't be able to boss these off the front. If Jackpot Joy can avoid argy-bargy in the run to the first, none will be staying on better.

A1 dog Ela Sniper: it's fair to say he could have done with a better draw. But he's nothing to fear on the clock. If he can get a clear run to the first two bends, he'll be a tough nut to crack.

This looks between the two on-side runners. At the prices, guaranteed to lead, she could be away and gone. If she leads, she'll head for the rails. That will kill off his chances in a rare drop-in trip.

Fillyfudge: only mare in the race; gets upwards of half a stone over the field. She's a course winner and has won on Polytrack before. She's had 26 starts (4 wins, 3 seconds and 8 thirds). Six starts on AW produced 1 win and 2 thirds. All wins come in Class 6 over a mile and two furlongs: once here, twice at Yarmouth. Last three runs have seen winners come out of them and a number of place runners. She can lead or come from off the pace. She appeared to run out of steam on last run here, dropping from 2nd to 5th at Wolverhampton. Interesting dropping in trip. Connections swap cheekpieces for the visor tonight. Mark continues to fall 64??'56 in her last 5 runs. On TS figures she's not got much to find. Five pounds below last winning mark. This is her first time back at this trip since her debut. I think 14/1 belies her true odds with doubts about a number of others' chances.

Bottom club Verona entertain fourteenth-placed Bologna with 14 points separating them. They last won mid-December. Verona are 1 win and 3 draws in their last 4. Bologna not in much better form, drawing 2 and losing 3 of their last 5. Those 3 losses were against sides in the top 7. Bologna can gain a narrow win.

I cannot see this ending goalless. As both sides look suspect in defence, I'm expecting goals. I think Chelsea, contrary to form, can win against what I expect to be a much-changed Arsenal first eleven than one in a PL fixture. 6/1 looks a point bigger I envisaged

Being on hosts ante-post, no reason to get involved in the 90-minute market. Until I saw the price, I was not going to get involved in this market. As I envisaged, around 9/2, I feel 6/1 cannot go unbacked.

Celtic were a shambles under Nancy, and O'Neill is back in the hot seat till the end of the season. They should beat an overachieving Falkirk side. Falkirk surprised a few ??" won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6, similar form to Celtic. More strength in depth in the visitors

Celtic should win, but they have looked weak in defence. Their first clean sheet in weeks was against Dundee United at the weekend, who were nothing short of shocking. I did envisageca price of 6/4 bit of value at 2/1

The leaders Inter face fourth from bottom Lecce. 28 points separate them. Inter won all 4 meetings in the last six seasons. Won 4, drawn 2 of their last six. Lecce lost 4, drawn 1, and won 1 of their last 6, that win coming against second-bottom Pisa. Simply put, hosts should outclass the opposition.
19:30 Cologne v Bayern Munich
Bayern Munich

@-454
Win

Bayern lead the league. They meet 14th-place Cologne, who've drawn 3 and lost 3 of their last 6, failing to keep a clean sheet, scoring 7 and conceding 11. Bayern have won 5 of their last six, drawing the other one, unbeaten all season and putting 8 past Wolfsburg at the weekend. The hosts' defence could be busy. I envisaged Bayern to be much shorter. In the last 6 seasons they've met 5 times, with the visitors winning all 5, scoring 13 and conceding just 3.

Third meeting. Seventh matchup, with both sides on 29 points. Although hosts lost their last two visits, Freiburg have won their last two, maintaining a good record against Freiburg: Leipzig have won 4 and drawn 2 of their last 6 meetings.

2400
This yard did me a huge turn with a 66/1 winner. PAVE THE WAY has a singular profile. She's disappointed for most of her career with just two runner-up efforts in twelve starts. His last two runs after a break were most definitely needed. On TS ratings, however, she's not as out of this as her form suggests. Her mark has dropped from 65 to 48 on the back of her last five runs. She's been turned out quite quickly after running just seven days ago, which is unusual. The fact she sports first-time blinkers might see an upturn in her fortunes. She's bigger in places, so look about.
17:30 Napoli v Parma
Napoli

-50
Fourth meet fourteenth in Serie A with 18 points separating them coming into week 19. Quite simply, Napoli should win. They've won 2 of the three meetings between these two in the last six seasons. Parma's issue is not only in defence but in attack. They have scored only 7 in all home fixtures and 7 away fixtures to date. There's no way I can see the hosts being outscored. Parma

Wolfsburg conceded 8 against Bayern and meet a St. Pauli side that kept one clean sheet in six. Three points separate these two above the bottom three. The only time they met in the last six seasons ended in a draw. Hosts can't keep a clean sheet but should outscore the visitors.

This competition form has worked out well: four expected sides reaching this stage. With a place in the final for the winners, I'm anticipating a tight, low-scoring affair. This is backed up by the stats. On checking, these two met 15 times with an average of just a goal a game. I think this will be a draw in 90 minutes and may well go to penalties. Envisaged 2/1 ??" there's a little value with the price at Betfred.

Two matches from a Wembley appearance. I still expect a much-changed first eleven from that of a PL fixture. But unlike the hosts, City have such strength in depth with their second string they can beat reigning holders on their own patch.

Cargin Bhui was gambled on in his last run. Having a wide trip throughout didn't help his cause, but he finished very well. There are hints his turn may be at hand. Seeing as that was his first run back in about 60 days and he was gambled on, he'll certainly strip fitter. He's well handicapped for all this is a deeper race.

Candinomore is interesting. 7 furlongs to 1 mile is his trip; he has won three times at that distance. The trainer is running at a 25% strike rate recently. Winner on FGR surface and makes a yard debut. Not raced for nearly three months but has gone well fresh before. The form of his second to Sky Advocate has worked out well two runs ago. Interesting at the price.

At 40/1 I cannot let KHANGAI go unbacked. The last two runs were over inadequate trips. He's not one that flies out at you. However, he won from 3 times in 19 starts ??" won off 54 and 55 twice during the summer. He's 5 pounds below his last winning mark. He's run here 3 times. He ran an odd race here leaving st 80/1 before fading back in November. On the other two runs he came third. He could run a stinker, but this is a weak race and he's handicapped to win. In this company I envisaged 25/1. At 40/1 it looks overpriced. Hopefully all 8 go to post and we get the 3 places up for grabs.

This could be a low-scoring affair. Offensively, Steelers have not been as prolific this season and they meet a Texans side who lie second for least points conceded. I think this will be a low-scoring, cagey affair. Final standings in the regular season were 10-7-0 for the hosts, finishing top of the AFC North, and Texans 12-5-0 when runners-up in the AFC South.

Houston Texans were one of my ante-post picks and they are on a tremendous run, winning their last 9. They look strong in all areas. Steelers are 12-5, but their defense??"one of the top two sides in the AFC and NFC final standings??"conceded the second-highest points total; only the Dallas Cowboys conceded more. That will be their undoing.

Sevilla are in a real slump and Celta have wins against Real Madrid and Atletico Bilbao. Their away form has been exceptional, losing only one on their travels. The Sevilla side lost 5 at home this season already. On a 3-match losing streak, no goals scored and 6 conceded. Only once have both teams failed to score in the last six meetings. At 6/1, there could well be value in the away win and BTTS.

Liverpool are having an up-and-down season. I fully expect Klopp to rotate his first eleven tonight. They really should have too much class for a Barnsley side who've lost three and drawn one of their last four matches. Luca Connell, their captain, will be missed as he's suspended.

2/13 is short, with Macclesfield shock win coming to mind. But arguably Liverpool should be 1/10 or even shorter. It would be much changed, did from a PL fixture, but there's a huge gulf in class. I think the Reds could cut loose tonight. I'd rather take 2/13 or take the hosts to cover the handicap line at around 4/5.

This looks to concern the blue and orange dogs. I cannot see how the odds-on favourite will get a clear run. Has a muddled seed. BOCKOS FRANKEL could have had a better draw as he's shown to go muddled, judged on trials at Suffolk Downs. That said, he boasts superb early acceleration from the traps, with a slow starter on his inside. He created a good impression on debut at Suffolk Downs when winning easily by 7 in open company, having over come a slow start and a bump.

The favourite I'd unexposed, but at these weights may not conform with The Quiet Man on their last running. THEY ALL KNOW ME is the interesting one. Has had five runs and placed in all of them: 3-2-2-3-3. Was a huge eye-catcher on the last run at Newcastle when beaten by Bobby Jo Leg a neck and one and three quarters. Given a fair bit to do two furlongs out when held up and then short of room. Was nibbled in the betting on that occasion, 14/1 into 10/1 before the off. Richard Fahey employs the services of Warren Fentiman, who's well worth his 5 pounds. I envisage this fella would be considerably shorter. At the odds, looks one of the bets of the meeting.
