Both Teams to Score
Oddevold have returned to the second tier for the first time since 1997 and they’ve made a high-scoring start, with both teams scoring in three of their first four games. The hosts have scored in eight of their last nine home games in the league, so back both teams to score.

Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@3.00
Lose

Asian Hcap

@1.80
Win

The visitors have won four of their last six, while Dunkerque have the worst home record in Ligue 2 with 10 defeats at their own ground this term. Only Saint-Etienne have a better away record than Auxerre, so back them for the points.
19:45 Genoa v Cagliari
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
Both teams have scored in 13 of Cagliari’s last 16 games and they have seen goals at both ends in each of their last four matches. Genoa have a solid scoring record at home but they head into this one without a clean sheet in four.

Utrecht are bottom of the table and the visitors have won five of five clashes with the bottom three this term, including a 6-0 win in their first encounter. The hosts have suffered 21 defeats this term and only two sides have more away points than ADO this term.

Kalmar have lost four of their first five games this season and they’ve conceded 10 times already in this campaign. Mjallby are coming off a couple of 2-1 defeats and three of their last four have seen over 2.5 goals, as have all but one of Kalmar’s games this season.

MIN Timberwolves
Money Line
50 WIN
@2.05
Win
52
Minnesota has dominated all three games this series, winning each by double digits. The Timberwolves have had the same strategy each game defensively, defend the Suns big three straight up with Gobert roaming the paint, and to win the rebounding battle. The Suns have had no adjustment all series. Timberwolves will complete the first postseason sweep in franchise history tonight.

MIL Bucks 9.50
Pointspread
50 WIN
@1.95
Lose
-50
Milwaukee covered the spread in 2 of the 3 games so far in this series, I like their chances of doing so again in Game 4. Their backs are against the wall and that should bring out the best out of them. They fell behind by 17 in the first quarter of Game 3 and were still able to come back and be competitive. For those who are brave I would recommend backing the Bucks on the Money Line, but let’s stick with the safer option of Milwaukee to cover here.

50 WIN
@1.92
Win+Push
23
Sporting are unbeaten in their last 17 Primeira Liga games, winning 16 times in a run which began with a 2-0 victory over Porto in the reverse fixture, and they look far too good for anybody in Portugal this term. Porto have failed to win either of their last two home league games and could struggle against their rampant visitors.
20:30 LA Clippers @ DAL Mavericks
DAL Mavericks -7.00
Pointspread
50 WIN
@1.91
Lose
-50
With Kawhi Leonard hobbled and the Clippers struggling to score, the deeper and more talented Mavericks are lined up for a potential blowout home victory in Game 4. Dallas' balanced offense and elite defense should allow them to not just win, but cover the -7 spread convincingly.

@1.91
Lose
-50
Elite defensive intensity has turned this series into a grind, with neither team able to generate consistent offense. Kawhi Leonard’s potential absence would further stifle the Clippers’ scoring, while Dallas’ balanced defensive attack has stymied Luka Doncic. Expect another defensive slugfest with the Under 209.5 total as the sharp play.
20:00 Marseille v Lens

Total Goals
50 WIN
@1.80
Win
40
At least three goals have been scored in four of Marseille’s last five matches. Meanwhile, over 2.5 goals has landed in Lens’ last three away Ligue 1 fixtures too. Lens will be without one of their three regular central defenders and with Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang still in hot form this match should feature a few goals.
20:00 Real Betis v Sevilla
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score

It will still be hard-fought and feisty encounter, but Betis can record their third straight 2-1 success having defeated Celta Vigo and Valencia by that margin.

50 WIN
@2.10
Lose
-50
Ipswich have picked up five 1-0 wins on the road this term and this looks like the perfect time to grind out a win by any means necessary. Hull have struggled against the top sides and they lost by a single goal in two meetings with the top six, so back an away win.
20:00 PSG v Le Havre
PSG (AH) -1.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.95
Lose
-50
PSG have covered a -1 handicap in seven of their last 12 home Ligue 1 matches. Luis Enrique’s side is likely to be stronger than in their 4-1 win at Lorient last weekend. Le Havre are in poor overall form and lost 3-0 at Lille back in February, which may be indicative of how this game will go.
19:45 Gent v Westerlo
Gent - Gent
Half Time / Full Time

@1.91
Lose

Gent have been on a goalscoring rampage at home recently, with the top-spot holders netting 13 across their last three on home soil, while Westerlo have conceded three times in three of their last four league games.

At least three goals have been scored in three of Lazio’s last four home games and also in three of Verona’s last five Serie A matches. We can expect to see Lazio involved in more high-scoring matches as Igor Tudor puts his stamp on the team.

Under 2.50
Total Goals
50 WIN
@2.75
Lose
-50
Braga have scored in 121 of their 15 away league games this season, but they have kept only four clean sheets on the road. Benfica have not been shut out at home for almost two years, but may not bag more than once against a decent Braga rearguard that has only conceded multiple goals in three of their lats 10 away trips.

Everton have won their last three games at home to push themselves clear of the drop zone. Brentford have been beaten in nine of their last 12 away games and they lost at home to Everton earlier this season.
Dominic Calvert Lewin

50 WIN
@3.30
Lose
-50
Calvert-Lewin scored when these two sides met earlier this season and the forward has looked good in recent weeks, scoring in three of his last four appearances. After his strike against Liverpool in midweek, Calvert-Lewin should cause Brentford some issues.

@1.85

Standard Liege have been poor since the league split but they do have an excellent home record, winning three and drawing two of their last five at home and keeping four clean sheets in the process. Sint-Truiden have lost seven of their last nine league away games.

15:00 AFC Wimbledon v Walsall
Over 2.50
Total Goals
AFC Wimbledon’s playoff push ended with a 3-2 loss at Tranmere last weekend and the Londoners may have to accept a draw at home to Walsall in their final match of the season. Walsall are mathematically in playoff contention but they need a miracle after losing three of their last four fixtures.
15:00 Barrow v Mansfield
Mansfield (AH) 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@2.02
Push
0
Barrow have been in the top seven since November but their push to nail down a playoff place could be undermined by a loss at home to second-placed Mansfield. The Bluebirds have taken one point from their last six games and look vulnerable against the Stags, who are chasing a fifth straight win.
15:00 Blackburn v Coventry
Coventry (AH) 0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@2.04
Win+Push
26
Coventry’s playoff hopes are hanging by a thread after Wednesday’s 3-2 loss at home to Hull and they could come to an end with a defeat at Blackburn. The Sky Blues have looked tired since last Sunday’s Wembley disappointment and that should be good news for Rovers, who are striving for survival.
15:00 Bristol City v Rotherham
Bristol City - Bristol City
Half Time / Full Time
50 WIN
@2.05
Win
52
Bristol City have gone six games unbeaten for the first time this season and can wrap up their home schedule with a victory over basement boys Rotherham. The Robins have posted five clean sheets from their last eight games and should shutout the Millers, who are the league’s lowest scorers.
15:00 Cardiff v Middlesbrough
Middlesbrough
50 WIN
@1.95
Win
47
Middlesbrough’s playoff hopes were extinguished by a 4-3 loss at home to Leeds on Monday but a positive response looks likely when Michael Carrick’s side take on Cardiff in the Welsh capital. Boro have done well on their travels and can inflict Cardiff’s tenth home league loss of the season.
15:00 Colchester v Crewe
Crewe (AH) 0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.80

Crewe need one point to secure a play-off spot while Colchester require one point to be certain of avoiding relegation. A draw would suit both parties.
15:00 Fulham v Crystal Palace
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
Five of Fulham's last six home games have finished with more than three goals, so Palace could continue their strong form with a 2-1 success.
15:00 Gillingham v Doncaster
Doncaster (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.85
Lose+Push
-25
Doncaster need just one more point to make sure of a playoff place and they can gather all three against Gillingham in Kent. Grant McCann’s side have reeled off ten straight wins and should be too slick for the Gills, who have lost three of their last four fixtures.
15:00 Huddersfield v Birmingham
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.80
Win
40
Birmingham slipped into the drop zone after last Saturday’s 0-0 at Rotherham but they can respond by defeating Huddersfield at the John Smith’s Stadium. Time is running out for both sides but Birmingham have kept back-to-back clean sheets and solid defence can help them secure a huge three points.
15:00 Man Utd v Burnley
Man Utd & Yes (Result + BTTS)
Result and BTTS
50 WIN
@2.50

-50
Despite their defensive issues, Manchester United should really have too much for a Burnley side that have lost 21 of their 34 league outings, side with the Red Devils to win 3-1.
15:00 Millwall v Plymouth
Millwall (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.86
Win
43
Millwall clinched Championship safety with a 1-0 victory at Sunderland last weekend and can follow up by defeating Plymouth at the Den. The Lions will be eager to win their last home game of the season and that is bad news for lowly Argyle, who are only two points above the relegation zone.
15:00 Newcastle v Sheff Utd
Newcastle - Newcastle
Half Time / Full Time
50 WIN
@1.73
Lose
-50
Sheffield United have conceded 92 goals in 34 games this season and look vulnerable to leaking more in this one, side with a 4-1 win for the home team.
Anthony Gordon
Anytime Goalscorer
50 WIN

-50
Nine of Anthony Gordon’s 11 goals for Newcastle this season have come at St James’ Park and he looks likely to add to that tally.
15:00 Norwich v Swansea
Norwich
50 WIN
@1.65
Lose
-50
Promotion-chasing Norwich have not lost a home game since November and should be too strong for Swansea at Carrow Road. The Canaries have made excellent progress since the turn of the year and should appreciate facing the Swans, who are guaranteed a mid-table finish.
15:00 Sheff Wed v West Brom
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.87
Lose
-50
Both teams have scored in Sheffield Wednesday's last three Championship games. So once more both teams to score is on the table.
15:00 Southampton v Stoke
Southampton
Southampton fell short in the automatic promotion race but they will be keen to improve before the playoffs and can start by defeating Stoke on the south coast. Russell Martin’s side lost 5-0 at Leicester on Monday, but should fare better against the Potters, who remain at risk of relegation.
15:00 Watford v Sunderland
Watford (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@2.05
Win
52
Watford haven’t won a Championship home game since November but can give their long-suffering fans something to cheer about by defeating Sunderland at Vicarage Road. The Hornets have held Leeds (2-2) and Hull (0-0) in recent times and can see off Sunderland, who have won twice in the last 13 games.
15:00 Wolverhampton v Luton
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.60
Win
30
Wolves have lost four on the bounce at home and they meet a Luton side who have proven capable of scoring goals on their travels. The Hatters hit four at Newcastle, three at Bournemouth and have claimed a 2-1 win at Everton and a 3-2 victory at Sheffield United. With the hosts winless in seven ??" including five defeats ??" back Luton to edge this.
15:00 Wrexham v Stockport
Wrexham (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.98
Win
49
Stockport have been the best team in League Two this term but they might finish off with a loss against third-placed Wrexham in north Wales. The champions are on an eight-game winning streak but face a really tough trip to Wrexham, who are looking to bolster the best home record in the division.
14:30 Bayern Munich v Eintracht Frankfurt
Bayern Munich - Bayern Munich
Half Time / Full Time
50 WIN
@2.10

-50
Bayern Munich have posted 12 wins in their 15 home games in the Bundesliga this season and they are worth backing in the correct score market to win 3-1.

Borussia Dortmund (AH) 1.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@2.10
Lose
-50
RB Leipzig have won five of their last six meetings with Borussia Dortmund and they should be too strong once again for their top-four rivals. But the other side have lost only once this whole season.
14:00 Lecce v Monza
Monza (AH) 0.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.90
Win
45
Monza have hit a rough patch but they have ambitions of a top-half finish and can draw confidence from some excellent away results this term. They have only lost one of their last five Serie A away days and Lecce have lost two of their last four at home.
12:30 Barnsley v Northampton
Barnsley - Barnsley
Half Time / Full Time
50 WIN
@2.10
Lose
-50
Barnsley have been limping towards the finishing line and their quest to reach the League One playoff. They gave enough confidence.
12:30 Derby v Carlisle
Derby - Derby
Half Time / Full Time
Derby need just a point to secure promotion to the Championship and they can bag all three against Carlisle, who have already been relegated to League Two, having lost 29 games in the third tier this term.
12:30 Exeter v Oxford Utd
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.65
Win
32
Exeter have made a lot of progress in the second half of the season and can finish on a high by taking at least a point at home to playoff-chasing Oxford. The Grecians are unbeaten in nine games and can stretch that run against Oxford, who need a win to boost their chances of a top-six finish.
12:30 Fleetwood Town v Burton Albion
Fleetwood Town (AH) 0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.85
Win
43
Fleetwood were relegated despite last Saturday’s 1-0 win at Leyton Orient but they can end their season on a positive note by defeating relegation-threatened Burton at Highbury. The points are more important to Burton, but it is hard to fancy the Brewers, who have won only five times in 2024.
12:30 Lincoln City v Portsmouth
Portsmouth (AH) 0.50
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.88
Win
44
Lincoln need a victory to make sure of a place in the playoffs but they could be held by leaders Portsmouth at Sincil Bank. The Imps have been outstanding over the last few months but they face a tough assignment against Pompey, who have not lost on the road since January.
12:30 Peterborough v Bolton
Bolton (AH) -0.25
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@2.02
Lose+Push
-25
Bolton are targeting a high-scoring win to assist their unlikely bid to overhaul Derby in the automatic promotion race but they might have to accept a share of the points at London Road. Peterborough lost 2-0 at Cheltenham on Tuesday but they will be looking to perform much better this weekend.
12:30 Stevenage v Cheltenham
Cheltenham (AH) 0.00
Asian Hcap
50 WIN
@1.90
Lose
-50
Cheltenham kept their survival hopes alive by winning 2-0 at home to Peterborough on Tuesday and they can give themselves a chance of a happy ending by defeating Stevenage. The Robins were worthy midweek winners and may be too strong for Stevenage, who have won only once since the start of March.
12:30 West Ham v Liverpool
Yes (BTTS)
Both Teams to Score
50 WIN
@1.50
Win

Liverpool are fading out of the title race and may struggle to lift themselves from their recent defeats to Crystal Palace and Everton. The Hammers are not shining either so these two teams may cancel each other out.
