The Football World Cup 2006 turned me interested in sports betting and soon understood it was not so easy. Fortunately I found OLBG then. So I have been learning and enjoying this site for 18 years now. Progressively I began to improve and I felt very happy when I started to get top position in 6-month profit in some football categories, horse racing and tennis. Also I realised I have grown in objectivity through these blogs when I got the first position in Argentine football blogs. Finally blogger prizes and pro status in tennis completed what I think as my basic learning. I am proud of having beat the Bookies in the site competitions and also, in real life overall balance since those 2006 days.

18:30 Carlos Alcaraz vs Botic Van De Zandschulp

Carlos Alcaraz to win 2 - 1

Set Betting

50 WIN

@5.50

Win

225

I see value in this bet due to the history of their head-to-heads. Carlos won twice: 2021 and 2022, once in 3 sets, the other in 2. Botic won at the 2024 US Open and took 3 sets, so it can be assumed that Botic has learned enough to not let Carlos win easily, despite the difference in their ranking.

18:00 Pedro Martinez vs Roberto Bautista Agut

Pedro Martinez

Win Match

50 WIN

@2.38

Win

Pedro has passed his veteran countrymate, Roberto, in the ranking, 44th to 52nd. This year, Martinez won 2 of 5 matches played. Agut played 2 and lost both. Finally, in 3 head-to-heads played, Pedro won all, although it should be noted they were all on clay. I see value here.

@3.00

-50

Time Patrol won last time in C&D and is in search of a hat trick today that looks easy to obtain in this company. The penalty will not change anything considering the more likely runner-up won in the penultimate race, only to fail hard later, on a lower mark.

12:00 David Goffin vs Alex De Minaur

Alex De Minaur

Win Match

480 WIN

@1.08

Win

Alex is currently 8th in the ranking, having won 7 of the 8 matches played this season. The veteran Belgian is at the 56th step of the ladder. He has lost the 4 matches played this year. Big stake.

Alex De Minaur to win 2 - 0

Set Betting

50 WIN

@1.36

Win

Five times have these players played head-to-head. The first match was in 2019, and the last in 2024; always on hard. Alex won all of them. He lost a set only once, winning in 2 sets in the last 3 of those matches.

Alex De Minaur

1st Set Winner

120 WIN

@1.17

Win

Alex has won every first set in the 5 head-to-heads played with David. Four times Alex won the game in the next set. The difference is too large to expect something different. David lost the 4 matches played this season while Alex lost only 1 in 8.

10:00 Jiri Lehecka vs Alexei Popyrin

Jiri Lehecka

Win Match

50 WIN

@1.40

Win

Jiri is 24th in the ranking, Alexei is placed 26th. Jiri won 9 matches of 10 played this season. But the win will not be easy since Jiri lost their only h2h at Miami last year.

This year's figures for Jiri are excellent: 9 wins, 1 loss (against Djokovic, which is not a worry), and 1 title obtained. But the title was obtained by the retirement of the opponent in the semifinal and final. In addition, he lost a set in each of the two tournaments. Moreover, in their only head-to-head last year at Miami, Popyrin won in 3 sets.

20:00 Chelsea v West Ham

Chelsea

50 WINAThis tip was used on Football 4Fold Acca.

@1.35

Win

Chelsea has the indirect beating of West Ham by Crystal Palace, which won away 2-0 and drew at home with Chelsea 1-1 recently. In the inverse leg, Chelsea defeated West Ham by 3 to nil. No doubts.

20:00 Girona v Las Palmas

Girona

50 WINAThis tip was used on Football 4Fold Acca.

@1.62

Win

None of them has done well in recent games, but Girona (10th) has the excuse of being involved in the CHL, though it was unlucky there too. Las Palmas (15th) has lost 60% of the away games this season. The two players that scored in the last three games are out of the game, one injured, the other with a red card.

20:00 Middlesbrough v Sunderland

Draw

50 WIN

@3.40

Lose

-50

Middlesbrough is currently 7th with 44 points, Sunderland 4th with 55 points. Sunderland is unbeaten at home but is not useful away. Middlesbrough's home advantage will not be enough.

Levante (7th) is unbeaten at home with 6 of 11 games won. Racing Ferrol is 21st of 22. It has made only 1 point in the last 5 games. Confident bet.

The selection is bidding for a hat trick after two promising performances. It is coming from an in-form yard and will not have trouble with the 6lb penalty. Edgewell might give a fight, but it has already been beaten by the pick in the last start.

Slotty Dotty is stepping up in distance slightly, but its win here in the last race, 3 weeks ago, with a large margin and no final demand, gave proof that it can do it again in this company.

16:00 Asteras Tripolis v Lamia

Asteras Tripolis

90 WINAThis tip was used on Football 4Fold Acca.

@1.67

Win

An easy choice. Asteras Tripolis has won the last 7 games in a row. Lamia, at the bottom of the table with only 9 points, has lost the last 7 games in a row. Odds are generous.

Stefanos Tsitsipas

Win Match

@1.40

Win

No chances are there for Mayot in this game. He is 130th in the ranking and has played only 20 matches in the main tour in his 4-year career. He won only one-third. Stefanos is currently 13th, and although he has not taken impulse yet this year (W/L 1/2), it is too easy, and there is value in this bet.

Lyon is slowly recovering its usual place in Ligue 1 having got the 6th place now. Marseille is runner up but curiously with a weak home record. So the draw is the most likely result.

Sporting

50 WIN

@1.14

Sporting Lisbon, current leader of the tournament with 47 points, has defeated Farense by 5 to nil in the inverse leg. Today's host is 17th of 18 with 15 points. No doubts.

@1.42

Unbeaten at home and with an away record of 6W2D2L, Olympiakos is the current leader. Levadiakos, 12th of 14, is very unlikely to get a point from this match.

Bor Artnak is 6 years younger, and his ranking (447) is far better than Fitriadi's (943). Both have played little on the main tour, which is negative for a player of 26 years old like Rifqi and says nothing about Bor.

Juventus is 5th, lost the last game as it had to face the leader Napoli, but no threat can come from Empoli. The guest is 14th and unlikely to obtain a draw, although Juventus, unbeaten at home, has 7 draws and 4 wins as host.
