Liz Doyle is a dab hand at readying bumper debutants and this son of Saddex has a lot of positives in his blood line. Disappointing then if he cannot at least make the frame in what doesn't look an especially strong race.

Newport have beaten Morecambe in each of their last six meetings but come into this one on the back of three defeats. However those games were all against teams in the top half and the Welsh side should find life easier against the 23rd placed visitors and stretch that streak to seven this afternoon.

15:00 Doncaster v Port Vale
Port Vale
Vale have suffered an alarming slump in form but their last win came on December 10th at Doncaster in the EFL Trophy and they look way too long to repeat that feat here.
15:00 Inverness CT v Dumbarton
Dumbarton
The basement boys meet in the Highlands attempting to nullify points deductions and somehow avoid the drop. Dumbarton have won their last two whilst Caley Thistle have won four of their last six BUT have lost two home games during that run and the visitors look a good bet today at these odds.
15:00 Preston v Oxford Utd
Oxford Utd
Preston were extremely poor at West Brom last time out and rejuvenated Oxford look a decent price to make it four wins on the bounce and continue their climb up the table under Gary Rowett.

Those with experience under rules dont look above the average thus far perhaps bar the Mullins entry who is predictably long odds on so a chance is taken on Tadhgs Rock who has looked very promising in PTP events and with a good stayers pedigree shouldn't be overly bothered by the conditions.
12:30 Tottenham v Newcastle
Tottenham
I think the layers have over reacted to Spurs results of late here. Yes they should have beaten Wolves last week but prior losses at Forest and at home to Liverpool are hardly awful results and before that they'd beaten Man United and won 5-0 at Southampton. Newcastle arrive in very good form but Spurs are way too long here.

Clearly something amiss after hurdles debut last winter and not seen since but looked very promising when scooting up in a Doncaster bumper before that and interesting to see JJ Slevin delaying his return home to Ireland to take this one ride. Fitness has to be taken on trust but its not the strongest race and Mr Barrowclough could resume progress here.

Former WBA Carlos Corberan boss takes charge of Valencia for the first time and could hardly face a more difficult task. He's a pragmatic coach who may have his new charges drilled well enough to prevent the kind of battering the league table might suggest is in the offing but still, difficult to envisage anything other than an away win.

Not a bad effort on hurdles debut when 2nd at 125/1 at Plumpton over 2m. Upped to 3m here and that should suit him. Travels a heck of a way for a modest contest here but can make that journey worthwhile.

Two teams in wretched form but 3rd placed Aberdeen can do a whole lot better whereas relegation haunted County are probably pretty much where they would expect to be. The Dons are taken to secure a much needed three points although its unlikely to be altogether straight forward so a home win with BTTS is the suggestion.

Only Celtic have beaten Motherwell across their last six games whilst Hearts have improved a little bit on their terrible early season form they remain inconsistent and in deep trouble occupying 11th place but the temptation to back the visitors is tempered somewhat by the fact that despite sitting five places and ten points better off than the hosts Motherwell have actually conceded more goals than Hearts. A score draw looks the most likely outcome.

West Midland derby and the visitors are making a decent fist of trying to stay up following their promotion last season.

New headgear tried and if that does have the desired effect shes not without an each way chance in this. Has been finishing her races quite well of late but always with far too much to do to trouble the judge. If she can stay closer to the pace she might spring a surprise. Its a big IF but her odds reflect that.
20:00 AFC Wimbledon v Gillingham
AFC Wimbledon
Both teams are inconsistent but the Dons are a tough nut to crack on their own patch and the Gills have a very poor record at Wimbledon (1 point from their last 5 visits). A dour encounter likely with the home side to shade it.
20:00 Man Utd v Newcastle
Draw
Both sides are due a draw and that looks the most likely outcome at Old Trafford where the Reds will be looking to give their fans some much needed seasonal cheer but the visitors are in good form and can take a point back to Tyneside.
19:45 Aston Villa v Brighton
Aston Villa
Villa will need to dig deep and put the disappointment at Newcastle last time out behind them but Brighton are not in great form and Villa are taken to bounce back with a win tonight.
19:45 Ipswich v Chelsea
Chelsea
Chelsea have had a bit of a sticky patch over Christmas but have a great chance to get back on track against a very willing but somewhat ordinary Ipswich outfit at Portman Road.

With a yard in tremendous form and partnered by the soon to retire Daryl Jacob. Still new to this game but has shown immense promise and should be involved in the finish today.
15:00 Shrewsbury v Northampton
Shrewsbury
Two teams in deep trouble at the foot of the table but Shrewsbury have improved under their new management regime and enjoyed a very good win on Boxing Day over Lincoln. Meanwhile the Cobblers are going from bad to worse having lost all of their last four games conceding 15 goals in the process and the home side look excellent value here.
15:00 Stoke v Sunderland
Sunderland
19th placed Stoke have taken just one point from the last 15 on offer whilst Sunderland have managed to stay very much in the race for automatic promotion taking 11 points across the same 5 game period so a shade of odds against about the Black Cats looks on the generous side.
12:30 Charlton v Wycombe
Charlton
Wycombe are surprise promotion contenders but Charlton have recovered from an indifferent start and are taken to continue their climb up the table with a third successive win this afternoon.

15:00 Alloa v Stenhousemuir

4th v 3rd but both have lost their last two games in disappointing fashion and will be anxious to keep their promotion ambitions intact going into the New Year by ensuring they avoid defeat here. A stalemate looks the best bet.
15:00 Elgin v Peterhead
Draw
Peterhead top the table and are two points and two places ahead of their Highland rivals but their away form is not the best and Elgin did beat them in the reverse fixture back in October so a draw looks a decent bet today.
15:00 Inverness CT v Cove Rangers
Cove Rangers
Inverness are making a decent fist of trying to avoid the drop despite their problems off field but Cove won for the first time in 6 games last time out and look very long to win this Highland 'derby'.
15:00 Raith v Livingston
Raith
Neill Collins has rather left Rovers in the lurch after deciding to return to the USA just before Christmas but he did have them playing their best football of the season so far during December and their caretaker management team can over see a third straight win.
