IRELAND are 10-11 favourites at Skybet to beat Wales on Saturday as they bid to take a huge step closer to the Grand Slam.
A win for Wales would keep alive their title hopes and they're 5-4 at Paddy Power. The Irish are favourites at 4-6 with Coral for the Six Nations title followed by England at 5-2 with Paddy Power, who make Wales 15-2.
In the day's other Six Nations games Scotland – still without a victory – are 10-1 to win at Twickenham for the first time in 32 years against an England side available at 4-5 with Paddy Power on the minus 15.5 point handicap.
France then travel to face Italy and are 2-5 at Betfred to defeat Skybet's 11-4 hosts.
Elsewhere there's sporting highlights and betting opportunities galore, from cycling to tennis to Cricket World Cup – where Ireland can clinch a place in the quarter-finals by beating Pakistan in their final pool game in the early hours of Sunday – to boxing and NBA.

Rangers to win
Brewers @ Mariners U9.5 runs
@ 3.51 Bet365 *LOST*
Rangers easily won 3-0.
Unfortunately the Brewers were absolute rubbish. The pitching was very poor and fielding wasn’t much better.
Parijs-Nice :
Small stake on Gallopin @12 and Kwiatkowski @8!
Oh no, I forgot Michael Matthews. He’ll win for sure now…

Tomic to beat Coric 2-0.
Both of these guys are young players with enormous potential. For a long time Tomic was tipped to do very great things, but the further time goes on it becomes clearer that he’ll be another case of a player that never fulfilled or realised his actual potential.
Coric, on the other hand, is a player with MASSIVE potential, and a young man that appears to be able to fulfil his full potential; they’re the early signs anyway.
So why 2-0 in favour of Tomic? Because of three main factors:
1/ He’s still vastly more experienced than Coric.
2/ A strong motivation to put one over on his young counterpart.
3/ The Tomic serve.

11/8 with William Hill.
*NB*
Cilic to beat Monaco 2-0 @ 7/4 with William Hill.
Cilic is really an unknown entity form wise at the moment, and the bookies have seemingly coincided that with the fact that Monaco reached the finals on clay in Buenos Aires, where he lost to Rafa, in pricing up the odds here.
This is IMO an excellent bet regardless of the above. Monaco has still been shocking for a long time now, and is coming up against a player that should wipe him off the court (6-4 6-4).

@Jordan, excellent call on the under for the Nuggets/Warriors game and good job on advising not to follow after the points changed! Close call but a winner it is!
Waiting for the lines to come out for tonight, but i’m already on Wizards -7.5 points at home against the Kings.
———–
Posted yesterday:
Portland Trailblazers -8,5 points at home against the Pistons.
** WON **
SS. 6 wins. 1 loss.
Nuggets/Warriors Under 217.5 **WIN** 217 :D
JJ- I reckon you’re right in thinking both Tomic and Cilic will win. Wouldn’t like to predict the score though. good luck.
Cheers Ad! What have you got placed today?

Michael White 66/1….
Fiver Each-Way

Harry why do the to score 50 before the match. What happens if they come in to get the last 10 runs won’t it lose. I’m guessing you get money back because he didn’t come in though
Parijs-Nice :
Small stake on Gallopin @12 and Kwiatkowski @8!

I’m feeling confident after a good betting day. Last night the home teams did well so i’m trying this for NBA :
Jazz + Pacers + 76ers 14,5
Two singles for me tonight.
NBA — Sac Kings over 49.5 first half team points 10/11 @SkyBet
NRL — Rabbitohs vs Roosters over 36.5 total points 5/6 @SkyBet
Ramos gets me a much needed win by taking Benneteau down 2-0. 15/8 I think. Let’s have another please!
Has to be a great chance of maria taking this second set 0, or 1. Just needs to play fairly well. Terrible matchup for wickmayer
NBA — Sac Kings over 49.5 first half team points 10/11 @Skybet
***WON***
The kings are well and truly smashing it, covered with 3 minutes to spare
Wizards were down 18 at the HT and are now winning by 17 with two to play. Some comeback¬
Red Devil what exactly is your bet there? No odds, no bookies and I can’t quite make out what you’ve even bet on?
Had a good days betting, all in-play so I had no real time to put up tips here. The other sports section is becoming my main section, so much more profitable than football!
Covering the treble on Detroit @ 4/1 @ Skybet.
SS Toronto Raptors -2 @ 10/11 @ Various
Wizards
Grizzlies
Jazz
ML Treble @ 12/10 @ 365 **WIN**
Tottenham haven’t come close to looking like they might come close to scoring all game long. there won’t be a top 4 place for them this year. And Harry Kane will be a nobody in two or three seasons, I’m pretty sure of that.
