BRITAIN begin their bid for a second Davis Cup tennis title in three years today with a first-round tie against Canada in Ottawa.
Both sides are without their star man – Andy Murray and Milos Raonic – and the Brits are just 2-9 at bet365 to beat a Canadian team chalked up at 3-1 and who don't have a singles player in the world's top 100.
Dan Evans gets the action under way today and is just 1-5 at bet365 for the win and 10-11 to do so without dropping a set against 17-year-old Denis Shapovalov, who is 10-3 at bet365 for a surprise victory.
Holders Italy face a tough opening against Italy and the day's other match-ups include Novak Djokovic's Serbia versus Russia and USA against Switzerland.
There's also the likes of snooker and rugby worth a flutter so let's hear all your tips and chat and Jordan will add his NBA picks below.

Tonight’s NBA:

Long shot also lost so poor night all round on a rotten card!
Week : 3-2
Season : 3-2
Nba double
Wizards -5
Rockets -4
10/11 365 *LOSE*

Danish Basketligaen
Horsens entertain Bakken Bears later today. These two are big rivals and for years have contested the Basketligaen. It’s often difficult to pick the winner when these two meet and more often that not, the advantage lies with the home team.
Horsens currently top the league with 16-2 and Bakken are 13-2 with 3 games in hand. At home Horsens are 8-1 with Bakken 6-2 away from home. Horsens have played two games already this season at home against Bakken and won them both – Horsens vs Bakken Bears 104-98 and 90-89, in addition, Horsens won the last 5 games played at home against Bakken.
I think Horsens should be favourites here so the odds are generous.
Bakken Bears @ Horsens (17:20GMT)
Money Line: Horsens @ 6/5, Bet365 – 1.5pts staked. ***WIN*** ✔
Good luck!
————————————
As expected, nothing much between these two but Horsens pulled away in the 3rd and held on!

Fourfold @ 15/1, Coral – 1pt staked.
Good luck!
————————————-
My form on the Euroleague has been nothing short of abysmal, such a difficult competition to pick winners. Might have to steer clear for a while.
On a side note, Olympiakos had one of the best 1st quarters I’ve seen in this competition. Think they sank about 9 from 9 triples in the opening 12 minutes.
**CORRECTION**
Makes no difference but the Milano / Darussafaka leg did win.

Another good NBA double mate ??
Cheers bud. Difficult to keep on top of so many Basketball competitions but keeping close tabs on the NBA is certainly paying off.
It’s good to see you have a few bets outwith the props! Keep them coming mate?
Cheers mate..my player prop bets been really poor last 4 days mate so stayed away last night – did Lean gortat over 13.5 evens but didn’t take it and what happens he gets 21 points haha ??♂️ Doh!..all good..keep up the great tipping mate.
Bloody typical! That’s the problem when you have a bad run….you start to doubt every selection!
@hunter That’s it man..?..will keep trying doh won’t give up haha – like what the say in betting “if the fun stops – stop!”
@humble-tipper I was driving to work mate and just seen jabeur getting some inspiration from no where – but looks like svitolina got bk on track.gonna let it run too…5/2 for jabeur to win current set…
Hoping Djokovic wins 3-0 today too the first 2 in on the treble ??..
When’s broady playing mate?
Can’t believe svitolina collapse there mate ??..maybe the cover was the correct move..??♂️ On to the next mate…
Jabuer serving for the set, i can’t believe it. Djok show win 3-0 even though he ain’t been himself the past 6 months, broady played at midnight lastnight and won 2-0. I ain’t looked at who she playing later yet, ffs jabuer just won the 2nd set.
Oh man was so close dude..? Next time we cover.
Gutted mate no way should svitolina be losing a set to a player of this standard, gone with this for the afternoon.
Sousa 3-0
Kuznetsova
Kohlscrieber
Mladenovic +2.5 handicap
3/1 @ coral

@humble-tipper dunno how safe this – what u think of this ..
Treble
Kutnetzova to win 1st set
Djokovic -2.5 handicap
Kholschriber to win
6/5 PP
Looks spot on but the way our luck been djok could be 5-0 up in 3rd serving for the match and lose the set 7-5????.
???? innit…gotta have faith the luck will change – the 22/1 cover on jabeur is looking good if we took it ??♂️how she beating svitolina. Locking in treble.good luck mate..
???i can’t believe what i’m seeing, jabeur just 1 game away. Good luck mate, going to study the footie and nba card while i watch this “tennis”.
@humble-tipper well that’s my afternoon treble down with kutznetsova losing 1st set..arghh ?… hopefully Djokovic wins 3-0 on the other treble…??
Treble: kutznetsova 1set win / kholscrieber win / Djokovic -2.5 *LOSE*
@the-lucky-filipino kohlscrieber 4-1 up in the last set now darcis serving for it at 5-4????couldn’t make this up. Kuznetsova a break down in the 3rd, think i might leave the tennis for a while.
@humble-tipper Yeah man same..won’t be surprised if Novak drops a set too ??♂️..some mad results
@humble-tipper defo staying away from tennis for a while mate.not even Djokovic can bail me out lol… my days..we should have done the opposite mate haha…

Peng win a set *won*
Djokovic 3-0 *lose*

?? gad damn ..yeah that’s it man..if at first u don’t succeed try then try then try then try then try again lol..
?..good luck for the weekend mate @humble-tipper
Good Morning all!
A couple of Six Nations bets for tomorrow/overall: (bet365)
Scotland v Ireland : Ireland Over 21.5 Team Points @1.8 **NAP**
Scotland have been the talk of the town as the dark horse of this tournament, and i would agree. However, Ireland are no joke. Despite Sexton being out, Ireland play great fast-paced attacking rugby and have enough depth to cross the line. I feel over 21.5 is low enough to have this as my NAP.
England v France: France Over 14.5 Team Points @1.8 *NB*
England SHOULD win. However, i feel as though we are going to severely miss the Vunipola brothers tomorrow. I rate Hartley as a Captain, and i’m over the moon we have Itoje back, but i still feel as though there will be a gap in our game. As a result, i think this match will begin a tight affair with both teams wanting points early on. I’ve always seen France as a bogey team, as you never know how they are going to play. However, i am confident they can cover a mere 15 points. A few penalties (Eng love giving away pens) and a try or two should see this covered.
6 NATIONS PUNT WITH SKYBET (RAB)
Exact finishing order – 1st England, 2nd Ireland, 3rd Scotland, 4th Wales, 5th France, 6th Italy
Odds of 18/1. Worth £10 or so i reckon.
GL all. I may put some bets out for tonight’s matches but haven’t had time to look properly yet.
Brave going with the Ireland total mate. For sure they play some great expansive rugby but the Scots have been looking strong recently. The game v Aus in autumn was a classic example and the players from Glasgow are flying. I may well be proved wrong and Ireland win convincingly but think Scotland could do a job on them. GL with your bets.
I hope Scotland win! It will be refreshing to have them battling at the top for once. I don’ know, call it a gut feeling but i’m confident that Ireland will sort me out tomorrow :)
Any bets for tonight’s matches? Bit weary of them in light of international duties but may have a little flutter if something catches my eye. I think Edinburgh v Munster will be a close match – I’ve seen Munster have made a ton of changes! Maybe points are the way to go for that one.
GL mate
11 changes is rather a lot. Edinburgh have changed 6. Tough one to call so points could be worth looking at. Seen the spread for the Saints v Scarlets match? Scarlets are playing their youngsters and Saints their seniors. Might be some value
Much better NBA card tonight, I have 2 leans so far this morning. First one:
Raptors -3.5.
Seriously, great line. Raps will be looking to get revenge over that loss at home on Sunday. The Raptors actually outscored Magic in every quarter apart from the 2nd.
Status on DeRozan is unclear atm, but Raps looks good value here.
German Masters
Selby o0.5 centuries – v Hamilton – Evs 365
Woolaston/Hawkins – u0.5 match centuries – 4/6 Coral
Holt/Bingtao – o7.5 frames – Evs William Hill
Gilbert +1.5 – v Bingham – 11/10 Betfair
Finland Basketball
I have a few ‘go to’ teams for 1st Half unders which include Helsinki Seagulls. Today they entertain Kataja. When these two met earlier this season 73 points was the 1st half score. I have made this bet on numerous occasions when Helsinki play at home, and their last 5 matches have all gone under the given line.
Kataja @ Helsinki Seagulls (16:30GMT)
1st Half Total: Under (81) @ 5/6, Coral – 1.6pts staked.
Good luck!
Nice! Thanks buddy

NBA prop bets for tonight…
Al horford (Celtics) over 15.5 points skybet 5/6 (NAP)
Yesterday I mentioned gortat to have a big game against lakers as they always get destroyed by good centre players..and was gutted I didn’t back him as he hit 21 smashing his over 13.5 lines… al horford turn to face the lakers and again I think he will dominate the paint against the poor lakers..could scrape it with 17,18 points tonight.
Cousins 30+ points and kings win..
7/5 PP (NB)
Last game Cousins had a poor Scoring night in Houston with only 16.. I expect “boogie” to bounce bk tonight and produce another 30+ Monster display against the suns ..not many in the NBA can defend cousins and I don’t see any player in the suns team that can stop him..his averages at the moment is ridiculously good and with gay sidelined he been having more shots…on top of that kings will be motivated to win and should return to winning ways …
good luck everyone..
Rugby Double
Saints under 46.5 team points
Edinburgh v Munster over 29.5 total points
1.87 @ bet365
Rugby Single
Harlequins ML
1.83 @ bet365
GL if you follow
Tough games to call this eve with cup games and six nation withdrawls, hence the points double. Harlequins ML based on both teams home and away form.
Saski Baskonia – Real Madrid
– 1st Quarter under 42.5 @ 1.80
– 1st Quarter no team to 20 points @ 7.00 small stake
– 2nd Quarter under 41.5 @ 1.90
I’m on Jordan’s double tonight with the addition of a modified Boston line to get it a tad above evens.
Pacers ML
Grizzles Over 96.5 Team Points
Celtics -2.5
1.1/1 @ SkyBet
I was hoping to get onto Boston’s team total but it’s a tad high for my liking. Whilst they should beat the Lakers, I worry about them getting ahead early and taking their foot off the pedal.
I’ll pop up a loose change long shot shortly.
Week : 3-2
Season: 3-2
0.5pt NBA long shot:
Celtics over 117.5 team points
Pistons -4.5
Kings over 111.5 team points

NCAA Basketball
Michigan Chippewas entertain Western Michigan Broncos in what the bookies believe will be a high scoring game, but the line looks inflated to me! Both teams usually have a great offense but not so hot on their defense. I believe this will be quite a close contest and don’t envisage both teams trading Baskets for the entire match. One low scoring quarter should keep this under.
Western Michigan Broncos @ Michigan Chippewas (22:30GMT)
Total Points: Under (179.5) @ 20/23, Coral – 1.6pts staked.
Good luck!

2 winners this evening has me back square for the week. Hopefully a winner or two this weekend to get me ahead.
Week 8-8
Memphis Grizzlies @ Oklahoma City Thunder
Pick – Thunder +1 @ 1.90 (Bet 365)
Short reasoning:
Two big reasons I like Thunder tonight.. 1 – they’re coming off a big 28 point loss.
2 – revenge. 34 point loss against the Grizzlies end of December.
Thats it from me, Good luck all.
Jabari Parker (Bucks) Over 27 Points and Rebounds @ 5/6 @ PP – 2.4 points
Giannis’ PR&A look decent at 36 too. As long as they don’t get blown out which the seem to do a lot in Denver.
NBA Bet For Tonight
Treble @ 5.65/1 (£10)
(Celtics)J Crowder Over 14.5 Points

Mavericks Over 101.5
Well I like Pistons and Nuggets too.
Why not…
Pistons -4 @ 1.83 (Bet 365)
Nuggets -3 @ 1.86 (Bet 365)
Was trying to narrow my selections down tonight, but i do like them all.
Good luck.
