ANDY MURRAY makes his comeback from injury at this week's Monte Carlo Masters where he's looking for a good showing to relaunch his season.
The world No.1, who hasn't played since early March due to a shoulder problem, was runner-up in Monte Carlo to Rafa Nadal last year and is 9-2 at NetBet to take the title, with the Spaniard the frontrunner at 5-2 with bet365 followed by Novak Djokovic at 3-1 with Skybet.
Today's opening-round action features an all-British battle where the winner faces Nadal, with Kyle Edmund the 1-4 favourite at William Hill against Marathonbet's 37-10 underdog Dan Evans.
In the NBA tonight there's a couple of play-off matches with Cleveland Cavs going for a 2-0 lead over Indiana Pacers while San Antonio Spurs do likewise against Memphis Grizzlies.

Bit of a disappointing end to the wknd. Probably guilty of too many bets this wknd. Must remember quality over quantity. More rugby next wknd with European cup matches.

Catalans v Salford 5pm
Salford have started the season well but go into this match only 3 days after their previous game v Leigh. Catalans have had 48hrs extra recovery from their 2nd win in a row at Huddersfield and will benefit from home advantage today. Salford haven’t won in their last 5 trips to the south of France and I’m expecting Catalans to make that 6.
Suggested bets:
Catalans over 28.5pts 10/11
Catalans HT/FT 20/21
Catalans 1st half over 2.5 tries 6/5
Catalans over 28.5pts 10/11 WON
Catalans HT/FT 20/21 WON
Catalans 1st half over 2.5 tries 6/5 LOST
2 out of 3’s not bad, one 1st half try short of full house.
Thanks mate, took the ht/ft and a -4.5 spread. Sailed in.
Great picking mreagling

Utah Jazz @ LA Clippers (Wed 19th April, GMT 03:30)
Clippers -8 @ 1.90 (Bet 365)
Not a huge fan of tonight’s schedule, so I’m posting my main bet for Wednesday instead. Write up will follow tomorrow.
However, for a bit of fun tonight I’ve done another Request a Bet.
Sky Request A Bet
Indiana Pacers @ Cleveland Cavaliers
Kevin Love Over 1.5 3pt field goals made and Cavaliers win @ 1.83.
It’s a small stake bet, but has a good chance of landing.
Kevin Love averaged 2.56 3pt’s per game during the regular season, and made 2 in Game 1.
Cav’s were lucky to win in Game 1, but im expecting a better showing tonight.
Good luck all if your having a bet.
Cavs -3.5
Spurs -7.5
3 points @365
