HARDLY an inspirational card but there are two games that hold some potential low-stake interest in the form of Jamaican and SA Youth football matches.
Although they may not appeal for the usual reasons – there are similarities in historical (and recent) form that may indicate similar outcomes after 90 minutes hence the singles and doubles.
IT'S been a week dominated by cup ties and on Thursday there's not much to bet on but three KO games in Spain.
Last night all three games went against the grain so be wary with Real Sociedad v Real Betis, Villarreal v Espanyol and Barcelona v Levante. All are finely balanced so it's about who wants it more and [...]
LAST week our three selections all performed well with all three shooting 4 rounds in the 60’s but only Charles Howell finished in the top 10 by finishing 8th (a place paying position at Paddy Power), so small loss of 2 pts over the week.
This week the Tour returns to the mainland in California for a Pro Am with [...]
WE found two winners and one loss from effectively match point up from our three wagers on Wednesday at the Australian Open on another poor day for the underdogs as 13 of 16 favourites won.
There are 16 round two matches set for Thursday when the forecast says to expect a cloudy day of around 30C, but with more humidity [...]
NO joy last night with a distinct lack of goals in Iceland despite a great corner count and the latter plays a part in my 2nd pick this evening with the main pick coming from Costa Rica.
Limon got off to a flyer in their opening Clausura game matching big-hitting Saprissa goal for goal [...]
COPA del Ray 2nd leg action tonight as Seville look to defend their 3-1 lead after defeating Bilbao last week in the first leg. I've highlighted before Bilbao's disciplinary problem and with this being a cup match, we should see both sides aiding the card count.
Seville vs Athletico Bilbao (KO 7.45pm)
The hosts can be pleased with their performance [...]
THE first European Tour event of the year starts this week on Wednesday as they head to the United Arab Emirates for the Abu Dhabi Championship. The course is a Par 72 of just over 7,500 yards, and a field of 132 line up.
The course has been toughened up since last year but scores in excess of 20 under [...]

ALL eyes will be on St Mary's as the FA Cup fourth-round line-up is completed on Thursday night.
Southampton v Derby is tough to call and again seeing line-ups will be vital. Check out Scott's preview.
Last night's cup games produced one shock with Shrewsbury winning at Stoke and two if you include Newcastle, who made eight changes, edging past [...]
FA Cup 3rd round replay. Wednesday January 16, kick-off 7.45pm. Live on BBC One.
IT doesn't take a spy in the camp to know an FA Cup exit wouldn't be a disappointment for either of these clubs.
Both have bigger fish to fry with Southampton fighting for their lives in the Premier League while Derby – spooked [...]
WE are a long, long way from those halcyon days of late April when the Icelandic leagues spring back into life and signal warmer weather and better football (😂) but for those with a mild addiction to the Nordic game, there’s a few scatterings of comfort over the coming weeks.
The pre-season (Fotbolti Cup) may not be full on league [...]
THERE are some massively short-priced homes in the Scottish Cup this weekend as the big guns return to action after a winter break.
Kilmarnock, Hibs, Aberdeen, Inverness, Celtic and Rangers are all 1-6 or shorter (all at home apart from Rangers) against lower-league opposition.
All six to win pays just over 5-4 and while no one wants to do a [...]
FA Cup 3rd Round Replay. Kick-off: 7.45pm, Tuesday 15th January. Live on BT Sport 2/BT Sport 4K UHD
THERE'S a dark cloud hanging over St James' Park with turmoil off the field combining with poor results on it to create a perfect storm.
The fans are still firmly behind boss Rafa Benitez, with owner Mike [...]
NO wonder the Boomtown Rats had a massive hit with I Don't Like Mondays.
I usual don't mind them but if they were all like yesterday I'd hate them.
My woes started with Andy Murray making a miraculous comeback at the Australian Open from 2-0 down to level at 2-2 with Roberto Bautista Agut in what could still be his [...]
IT was a pretty standard start to the Australian Open as far as underdog winners are concerned, with eight of them obliging (a few of them very marginal underdogs) and it was a decent opening to the fortnight for us too.
The one daily bet edged home when Matteo Berrettini covered the handicap (and the overs, for anyone who took [...]
FRENCH Ligue 2 action tonight as fifth placed Lens travel to Basement boys Red Star and the visitors will be looking to create some space between them and the 5 clubs below them who are all trying to get into the those play off positions
Red Star vs Lens (KO 7.45pm)

Over 2.5[...]WE'VE got 32 matches from the bottom half of the draw on day one in Melbourne and as ever here it’s wise to have a look at the likely weather conditions the players can expect.
It’s set to be a sunny and hot at around 34C in the shade on Monday, but there’s also a yellow warning for wind in [...]
THE big question on Monday is can Wolves stop the Man City scoring machine.
After scoring 13 goals in home cup games against Rotherham and Burton it's time for Premier League action as Pep Guardiola's men try to close the gap on Liverpool to four points.
Kevinmac is posting a preview and for me best bets could be City and [...]
THE two-three week spell around the New Year is always a lean period for anyone who follows the South American and overseas games but the break is nearly over and as the Clausura campaign kicks back in salvation arrives in the form of a full Costa Rican card – certainly one of the better leagues for goal backers.
I don't think the Goodison Park faithful will accept anything less than three points today against a Bournemouth side who are in dire straights at the moment. I'm taking the Toffee's to get a much needed win and relive some of the pressure on boss Marco Silva.
Everton vs AFC Bournemouth (KO 2.15pm)
Both these clubs are having a tough [...]
