You can’t read too much in to the outcome of the Community shield but last week’s penalty shoot-out win won’t have done Arsenal’s confidence any harm.
Visitors Nottingham Forest are a massive 14/1 to win at the Emirates this lunchtime but that’s no surprise after they recorded the worst away record in the top flight last season.
With the Gunners just 2/11 to win try a BetBuilder that features Arsenal half-time/full-time and a second half goal for Mikel Arteta’s side at 10/11.
Match of the Day is at St James’ Park where Newcastle entertain Aston Villa.
The Magpies won the corresponding fixture 4-0 last season but Villa returned the favour with a 3-0 win at Villa Park – inflicting one of just five defeats (joint lowest with Man City) suffered by Eddie Howe’s side last term.
Unai Emery has a few injuries to content with the likes of Buendia, Dendoncker, Duran, Moreno, Ramsey and Traore all sidelined.
Newcastle’s home record could see them edge this but they might need to score a couple to do so, back Howe’s men to win and score over 1.5 goals at even money.
Fulham at 12/5 could be a bit of value at Goodison Park as could Sheffield United who are 21/10 to mark their return to the top flight with a win over Crystal Palace.
Defeat is unthinkable, even at this early stage of the season, for Michael Beale at Ibrox today. A 1-0 loss at Kilmarnock last Saturday, followed by an unimpressive 2-1 win over Servette in midweek has left Rangers fans with more questions than answers.
Livingston usually make a decent fist of things at Ibrox and David Martindale will be employing the same kind of tactics that saw his side shut out Aberdeen last weekend.
Livi had three players booked and conceded 22 fouls in that one and look nailed on to pick up a few yellows today. They’re 4/5 to collect three or more or they can be backed at evens (2.00) at -1.0 on the Asian Handicap, meaning they’d need to get at least two more than Rangers for the bet to land or your money back if it’s just one more.
Malky Mackay will have been delighted with his team’s showing at Celtic Park last week. The Staggies may have lost 4-2 but made things uncomfortable for the defending champions in a hard-working performance.
That should set Ross County up nicely for a win today at 21/20 against St Johnstone. Expectations are low for the Saints following a poor League Cup group stage and opening day defeat at home to Hearts.
Further down the divisions Dundee Utd (home to Dunfermline), Queen’s Park (home to Arbroath) and Falkirk (away to Cove) all look solid picks to make it two wins from two, which pays a 43/10 Treble.
Last week we highlighted the terrific form of Stirling Albion who started their League One campaign with a win over Edinburgh City. They face a tough test at Alloa today but are on the long shot shortlist for today.
As are Stenhousemuir. They drew blank at home to Forfar last week and look overpriced to win at Peterhead who pulled off one of the surprises of the week last weekend. We’re banking on that being a bit of a freak result and happy to add Stenny to complete the long shot treble.

🥱cheers Dean,loser
This is getting like Spartacus. I’m ….. No Im…… I did think MJT was on the level, they’ve had a fair few winners.
Not that I really give two hoots any more, but I’m personally sure MJT is NOT one of the the stunted bald Irish gobshyte’s sock accounts.
MJT absolutely knows his tennis, whilst all Dee-Tee knows is the cheapest place to buy bottles of White Lightning.
Oh, and MJT also understands how to use spelling & grammar correctly (whereas Dee-Tee is still using crayons)
Eating crayons or using crayons?
Agree no way would Dean have that kinda tennis know-how. He would have 500 typos in a post that size too 😂
I literally have no idea why my name is getting thrown about. Some explanation would be nice but no idea if this person is just yet another trying to wind me up.
Top Buzzer as you have gone all Sherlock and seem to be so full of knowledge how about you grace us with your fine expertise and instead provide us with a tip or some useful information. I believe that it what this site is supposed to be about after all!
As I said yesterday I have ONE account on here and have only been posting tennis picks so far. Win or lose I still post and I always try to give my reasoning behind my plays.
I also post the same plays on another forum and on social media where I discuss tennis matches throughout the day.
And like I also said last night it’s a pity there is no way of verifying accounts on here somehow. Then it would stop all of this nonsense and ban the people who are causing issues.
Nobody doubts you are the real deal pal, you’ve been a top addition to the site…unlike Stu…
Been on here for way over a decade now and have to agree with you Chris, I couldn’t give a toss really about all the ‘nonsense’ generated by this very sad character. I follow with interest tips and posts by those that I know are genuine. The rest of the drivel, I try to ignore.
The various ‘incarnations’ of this very sad person with a recognised psychological condition are relatively easy to spot (not that they really care), but as their ‘activity’ comes in fits and starts, there’s just one observation I’d make. “The enemy of my enemy…is not always your friend”. Just because someone on here criticises ‘a suspected incarnation of the saddo’ doesn’t necessarily mean they are not an incarnation themselves…
I prefer to just filter out the rubbish and concentrate on some of the hugely impressive knowledge on here. I do find it sad, however, how some good folk are hounded off the site at times…
It’s blatantly obvious topbuzzer/Stu(changed profile pic to ugly weasel)is Dean,not going to entertain them anymore,just hate people talking 💩,tips only now
Nothing is ever ‘blatantly obvious’ on here, where Mr sad sack is concerned…
Good day from rainy Stockholm!

Good call on Aurier.. ex Spurs so should be under pressure all game 🤞 I took 7/2 on Unibet should anyone have an account
Yeah he’ll be targeted for sure, Forest are 14/1 to win today on the first game of the season. Madness
Good afternoon everyone last weeks bet lost when Altrincham conceded in the 98th minute equaliser.
Anyway today they are at woking and 3/1 to win which l think has a shout
Radcliffe Boro start their campaign at Warrington this afternoon. I believe they will have a good season they have strengthened and with 2 very experienced managers should do well.
They are currently 11/8 to win at Warrington Rylands with bet365
Well both Altrincham and Radcliffe won so a nice double if anyone backed it
Break even yesterday.

Not sure I will be posting on here anymore to be honest. Seems to be a lot of good people but being ruined by a bunch of complete to**ers which is a shame. In the space of a short period I have had this Dean individual wind me up on 2 different accounts about units. Even going to the extent of “Paulm” copying my profile picture and editing conversations making out I was saying something to Elvis last Monday, and now someone else is accusing me of being this Dean person, who appears to have split personality disorder, with no explanation.
I didn’t join the site for all this drama. It’s like an episode of Eastenders!
Anyway, good luck everyone today with your bets and during the season.
Just post ya stuff and ignore the rest mate it’s not too difficult
Agree.
Yep, MJT – please keep posting – your thoughts and recommendations are most welcome here 👍
And just ignore the reetarded little troII like the rest of us do😉
I enjoy reading your posts and then picking a bet or two from your tips and I’ve done ok. Please keep posting and ignore the idiots

Fancy a simple double today. Gillingham have spent a fair whack for their division and actually outbid Wrexham recently for one of their targets. They finished last season strong and have picked up where they left off. I’m all over the evens today at home to keep the run going and happy to double them up with Wigan, who I think are also overpriced at evens after seeing off Derby last week.
3/1 the double.
More adventurous acca on qos, gillingham, wigan and falkirk at 15/1.
Best of luck all today. On a personal note, not a great week after being told I’ll need chemo as the colon cancer has spread to my lymph nodes. Hoping it will just be a belt and braces mop up, I know a few on here have been in this rodeo, so any insight would be grand.
Rangers v Livi
Header scored 27/20 Hills
Also, just an observation but tried a long shot on team corners for Fulham, villa, Leicester, Ipswich and Bournemouth today, simply given they will all have about 15 mins more playing time to hit the lines. Don’t think it will take bookies long to cotton on and start pushing these higher, so a wee poke at getting in first for once!

If you can get evens or above in any Rangers game for a header to be scored -it is well worth doing imo .

My tennis plays today:
ATP Cincinnati Qualifying
Thompson 2-0 v Muller 1.90, Bet365
Thompson has been playing some good tennis over the last couple of months. He lost in the final of Hertogenbosch & was unlucky to meet Djokovic so early on at Wimbledon. He had a good couple of wins in Washington over Mannarino & Eubanks. However, he would have been disappointed with his performance against Fritz in the 1/4 finals. Muller has lost all 3 matches since Wimbledon all in straight sets on clay & has not had any hard court matches since March. He did take a set off Murray at the start of the year in Doha but that is about the best he has performed on the surface for over 2 years. Thompson has been in good form & should win this one in straight sets.
WTA Montreal
Samsonova to beat Rybakina 1.91, Bet365
Not one for usually going against Rybakina due to her serve & powerful game but I think this is the right time. She has played an awful lot of tennis this week including her marathon 3 1/2 hour match last night which finished at 3am. She looked exhausted & in her previous match against Stephens took a MTO for a right shoulder issue. She served 7 double faults yesterday & a lot of forehand errors which would suggest the shoulder is not quite right. She also committed 80 unforced errors. To add to this Samsonova leads the head to head 2-0 including a 6-2 6-4 win in Tokoyo last year. In that match Rybakina failed to break & won only 38% 2nd serves. If her shoulder issue is still bothering her the 2nd serve is likely to be punished again. Even a fresh & fully fit Rybakina & this match should be close given the similar aggressive play styles. With the fatigue factor along with the shoulder issue & at these odds I feel Samsonova is worth a play here.
May have further plays for the Toronto semi finals tonight.

I’m a liverpool supporter watch every game. Liverpool draw no bet is a good price at 8/11 . I think liverpool will win and Score at least twice. Chelsea have a problem from last season scoring goals. Its poch first game at Stamford bridge. He doesn’t know his first 11. Liverpool first 11 today.

Its hard to predict Chelsea’s team. They let go of 10 players and signed another 10. Man city know they will get relegated when all charges get proven. Its funny watching PSG today. No neymar mbappe messi. Mbappe in the stand laughing . Said it for years the 3 worst teams for football Chelsea, man city and psg.
Look at Newcastle. Richest club in world but doing the right way. 300 million Newcastle was bought for. And Chelsea paid whatever 4 billion to Abramovich. To me the biggest clubs in the world are in no order. Liverpool man utd. Barcelona real Madrid . Full stop
Personally I think this is a free hit for liverpool. Usually this fixture has been 0-0, about a million times . Any Chelsea fan would take a draw I bet. A liverpool fan wouldn’t take a draw right now.
Look who reacted mjt .stu did , you never . Keep to your word mjt.
