Football

With no early or late fixtures on Saturday we have the unusual prospect of seven three o’clock kick offs in the Premier league.

The games in question are Fulham v Arsenal (Ars/Ful 0.65-0.85), Norwich v Reading (Nor/Rea 0.7-0.9), QPR v Stoke (QPR/Stoke 0.2-0.4), Sunderland v Everton (Eve/Sun 0.25-0.45), Swansea v Southampton (Swa/Sou 0.1-0.3), West Brom v Newcastle (WB/Newc 0.2-0.4) and West Ham v Wigan (WHU/Wig 0.2-0.4).

Sunday at 1.30pm sees Tottenham host Manchester City at White Hart Lane. Mancini’s side have won the last four clashes between these two. Can they make it five in a row? We have Spurs at 21/10 for the win, with Man City at 5/4 and the draw 9/4.

Liverpool and Chelsea go head-to-head in the 4pm match. There hasn’t been a single goal in the Reds' last two outings. Will we be in for more of the same here? Our Total Goals quote is currently 2.9-3.1.

The final game of the weekend is on Monday evening between Manchester United and Aston Villa. Total Goal Minutes settled at 303 when they last met back in November. TGM’s are being quoted at 172-187 this time around.

Ahead of next week’s matches our Champions League prices are now live. We make Bayern Munich slight favourites in the first leg against Barcelona with a Supremacy quote of Munich/Barcelona 0.1-0.3. In the other game we make Real Madrid 6/4 for an away victory, Dortmund 7/4 and the draw 9/4.

The Snooker World Championship gets underway on Saturday and our prices are already live ahead of the big event. Can Ronnie O’Sullivan make a winning return to action after a near year-long absence? He’s joint favourite at 6/1 along with Mark Selby and Neil Robertson on our Outright Winner Market.

Of the first round matches of interest Judd Trump will no doubt fancy his chances against Dominic Dale, but will the former World Championship runner-up have it all his own way? Our Supremacy quote is currently Trump/Dale 15.5-18.5.

There are also a number of Specials to mark the occasion such as Highest Tournament Break (144.5-145) Total Tournament Centuries 68.25-69.75 and Champion’s Age (30.5-31.5).
