EXPECT plenty of bad blood on Good Friday when Andy Murray renews his rivalry with Tomas Berdych at the Miami Masters.
It's their first meeting since an acrimonious Australian Open semi-final which Murray won in four sets and he's 8-13 at William Hill for victory today.
Berdych ,who leads 6-5 in the head-to-head, is 8-5 at Boylesports to deny Murray a place in the final and the match to go three sets is 6-4 at Ladbrokes.
At the China Open snooker there's quarter-final action with Ding Junhui against John Higgins among the highlights.
Elsewhere there's Super League rugby and Stateside sporting action so post your tips and chat here and good luck with your bets.
AUSSIE SPORTS BETS FOR LATRR:
A-LEAGUE SINGLE:
– Western Sydney Wanderers DNB @ $2.20 (5 points)
NRL/Super Rugby TREBLE:
– Canterbury Bulldogs +13.5
– Gold Coast Titans +13.5
– Hurricanes WIN (super rugby)
TREBLE pays $2.21 (5 points)
Thought id post these early guys before odds drop.
Western Sydney have finally found their champion form again, albeit too late. Striker Keiran Bullet is nearly un-stoppable atm netting in nearly every game. Melbourne City have all but locked up the 6th playoff spot so I think Western Sydney will win this at their fortress Pirtek Stadium. With above Evens if they win and money back for the draw, this is as good a bet you’ll ever get in the A-League.
It was proven last week that the Rabbitohs can be beaten, and the tough Bulldogs forwards will come close tonight. They might even sneak the win but cant see them getting beaten by more than 2 converted tries.
I was going to tip the Broncos to win SU originally, but just got some team news for Brisbane showing a weakened lineup due to injuries, whilst Gold Coast are at full strength. I think Brisbane will still win, but in a tight one so the Titans at the + more than a converted try should do nicely.
As for the Hurricanes, they are on fire at top of the table and can’t see them losing at home.
cavs -5.5 ht spread WINNER !!!!
(61-50)
7 OR 8 IN A ROW
***POSTED YESTERDAY***
NBA SINGLE:
***WON*** – Houston Rockets +2.5 @ $1.92 (10.8 points)
Houston is racing towards the play-offs with only 2 losses in their last 10 games. Hardens 51 point game yesterday was something in itself, & I think Dallas are in a bit of a let down spot after yesterday’s emotional win.
Wont bore you with my loss bets..put up 2 and both lost mainly thanks to the GS Wimpiers.
Well done Huggy on fire the one to follow at min.
Unlucky to Jordan etc think some others missed out by a harsh 1 point.
Special thanks to AT Tips you saved my day with your NHL banker..cheers.
All other winners congrats..keep posting.
Nice one Attilia your also on fire..will look at your Ozzie sport posts now..see what i fancy.
Warriors -10 @1.64
Only bet for me. I got a feeling Cavs will not cover it if I bet on them :p
LOST
Ok, I’ve had enough. Cavs won by more than 20 and GSW just by one. Why do I pick the wrong game again :/
team news was the key here , wade was already listed as doubtful without them they are screwed and he was always lightly to play very little before getting injured thats y i picked the cavs , plus cavs want that top spot…
Well done with the overs on Djoker v Daveed Jimbob. Still feeling Berdy today? He’s abailable @ 8/5 with Boylesports and im going to have to NAP that even though im already on him to win the tournament. Looks a very good price to me.
Takahagi scores for Wanderers! 1-0, 20th min. So far so good :-)
Was going to take Ding to beat Higgins but I saw the the unattractive 8/13 offered @bet365 as being reason enough not to bother.
Higgins recently won a ranking event an earlier this week put Trump out so value would probably be with him but Ding has recovered some form and breezed through to the quarters.
A modest wager will be redirected from China towards Miami and the mens tennis. I think there is some value in Berdych to beat Andy Murray @ 11/8.
The somewhat mercurial Murray hasn’t looked convincing this week and I think the Czech has an excellent opportunity to improve on what is already a positive 6-5 H2H record with the man from Dunblane.
James you can get 13/8 on Berdych. He was slightly bigger than that @ 8/5 earlier.
Thanks Ad but location means I’m restricted in my options.
Ah fair enough mate, good luck, I’m with you
thinking iv`e picked my main bet (ss) for tonights NBA action ..
hoping to continue this hot streak… might check threads and see how many in a row it is.. 8/9
what you all thinking of backing ?
`THE BEARD` think 28.5 too high tempted to go under…
would of been a WINNER !!! 24 POINTS.
INSTEAD I BACKED (SMALL BET )
but its a risky stephen curry UNDER 24.5 = REASON BEING I HOPE HE`S SAT ON HIS ARSE MOST OF THR MATCH !!!!
he gets 28 and played nearly all the match , tosser lol
jordan treble downed by half a point , gutted mate , thought we had that…
Isner @ 5/1 is tempting me. He normally gives Novak a good game and seems to be in good form. Djok hasn’t exaxtly looked untouchable this week.
***POSTED EARLIER***
A-LEAGUE SINGLE:
***VOID*** – Western Sydney Wanderers DNB @ $2.20 (5 points)
NRL/Super Rugby TREBLE:
– Canterbury Bulldogs +13.5
– Gold Coast Titans +13.5

***WON*** TREBLE pays $2.21 (5 points)
With the A League game finishing 1-1 we got the push and money back. The Treble landed easily so a nice 6 point profit in the end.
Good work as always Atilla – thats the Easter Egss bought!
nice one ATTILA , my account is blossoming big time with my NBA winning streak and your auusie sports….
did anyone take the cavs -5.5 ht spread or just me !!

Cheers Juan & Huggy… Glad ya’s got on! Love to see your streak continuing btw Huggy!
Huggy,
That brazilian basketball team you mentionned (Bauru) is playing tonight against Sao Jose. Spread is Baura -17.5 and they have covered that in the last two meetings against Sao Jose.
http://www.flashscores.co.uk/match/EgDaAc12/#h2h;overall
Might be worth something.
they played the other day and covered easy . might try 1 point *£10**

Afternoon all. Apologies wasn’t round yesterday but had to take the little one to A+E and he stayed there overnight so matters were more important.
Wasn’t a good evening with the treble losing out by a point and I was surprised to see the Suns kept it to a single point loss. The props came close with James losing out by 3 points and Ellis by 1 but other than that the others were a bit off. Think Thompson only had 16 in the end so 5 short. The only winner being Steph Curry who I said would probably answer Harden and Westbrooks performances from the night before. Said Harden usually has an off day after a big performance which came true, no consistency which is why Westbrook should get MVP (11/4 bet on him :) ). Looked at a few of the games and I’ll be going with this.
Bulls -1.5
Thunder +14
Celtics +2.5
EVS @ 365
Add;
Wizards -6.5 @ 16/10 @ 365
Prop Bet
DeMarcus Cousins (Kings) Over 25.5 points @ 5/6 @ PP
hope your boys ok now mate….
Not brilliant but he’s home now so there’s a positive. Thanks though mate.
I hope he gets well soon Jordan mate
glad to hear it ! we were unlucky last night on the props , my single pi**ed it , gutted bout the treble i went 2.5 points on it..
we`ll get it back this evening i`m sure…
Hope your little boy makes a fast speedy recovery Jordan..all the best mate.
Really need Murray to start missing some first serves. If he does that Berdys got a real shot. If not could be curtains
**Super Single**
Brooklyn Nets -2
@1.95
A struggling Lowry-less Raptors team will visit the Nets tonight, where I think the line tonight is rather generous. I’ll be taking the in-form home team, against a side that has struggled on the road as of late.
**DoubleMoneyDouble**
Pacers (ML)
Celtics (ML)
@ 2.1
With playoffs looming, this is a must win game for both teams. Home advantage, coupled with some recent information on players missing tonight’s game (Hornets) makes me really fancy this one.
**Longshot + Handicap 4-fold**
Pistons +12
Nuggets +15
Lakers +11.5
Thunder +10
@ 7.1
Small stakes, but will be having a crack at this 4-fold. All teams listed have been pretty good ATS and many a time keep the game very close.
GL
Is it just me..but NBA seems like a very tricky card tonight..nothing standing out as of yet lol
its you my salad pal , iv`e already displayed tonights winner lol , in fact iv`e posted 2 winners
Yes and no wetveg. Only spread I like at a glance is Huggys. Kings +6 could be a good pick.
Wouldn’t say the Raptors have struggled without Lowry but I do like the Nets at home.
Cheers for the kind words boys.
Huggy watched the highlights before. Suns had 100 with a minute left which was a bit of a kicker.
rather lose by lots than half a point.. but confident in tonights .
Jordan – was just mentioning Raptors were missing Lowry, the struggles I was referring to were them on the road over the last few weeks. 3 wins out of the last 12.
Agreed though, Nets have been good to me lately and I’ll be putting my faith in them again tonight :)

Just reading through yesterdays thread and I saw a couple posts on footie betting. We all have our better sports and although some struggle on football, it is by far the sport I know the most about hands down and I tend to do very well on the Premier League. Everything else is all research from stats. Stick to goals in the more prestigious European league (teams to score is a brilliant market if you find value) and you will beat the bookies no doubt. See how I do tomorrow.
Manchester United Over 1.5 Team Goals (Go on Boys!)
Southampton to score
Just over EVS @ BV
West Brom Over 1.5 Team Goals @ EVS @ Bet Fred
Treble @ 3/1 @ BV
Yes this is supposed to be on the other sports thread so if admin could leave it on please.
Re-invented. Need to have a briefing on this weekends UFC if you’re about.
A bit of value even in the favourites which is a surprise. My likings.
Al Iaquinta 11/10 Iaquinta by KO/TKO 5/1 or fight to go the distance NO 13/8
Mendes/Lamas to go the distance NO EVS
Chiesa/Clarke Method of victory KO/TKO or Submission 10/11
Chiesa/Clarke not to go the distance is EVS too.
Jordan, Huggy, Attila what are you all on tonight for the NBA?
Fancy the Nets and Hawks to hit the HT team points tonight may put the lowest available in a double
Shotty Hawks aren’t playing. Got my bets up mate.
Speaking of UFC, I literally can’t wait until 187. Such a stacked card.
How do you see the Johnson/Jones fight going Jordan? Johnson has freak power and explosiveness, but I feel like there’s always a case made before the fight for why they will potentially defeat Jones. When it comes to the actual fight, Jones just steamrolls them. Uses their own game plan against them. Barring Gus.
Gonna be a cracking fight. It’s a really tough one to call.
Honestly not sure Christian but really can’t see anyone dethroning Jones anytime soon. Their styles are too similar for Johnson to give Jones any serious problems. He’ll know exactly what to avoid which is the power. Fight long when standing and probably look to take it to the mat when Johnson explodes and finish it there. Can’t see them going toe to toe for 5 rounds because that would be a serious risk for Jones.
I dont know why i said hawks meant the wizards haha!
Wizards over 51.5 and Hornets over 46.5 looks a decent double may go for that!
Didn’t have much time to check the thread today.
I like Huggy’s picks and am on Jordan’s trebble.
My single is Spurs -13.5 against the Nuggets. Spurs need to keep pushing and grab some spots for the playoffs.
Good luck tonight everyone.
Yeah, that’s more than likely how it will go! It is really hard to envision anyone beating him at this point. Be interesting to see how he’d do at heavyweight. It’ll happen eventually I imagine.
Another one I can’t wait for is Aldo/McGregor. I’m all aboard the hype train.
**NAP**
Isner to beat Djokovic @ 4/1 with William Hill.
**NB**
Navarro to beat S Williams @ 6/1 with William Hill.

after a quick look at the card tonight im going for

Good to have another NBA and NFL punter picksix. Nice gravatar. Very fitting for the name ;)
NBA SUPER SINGLE:
– L.A. Lakers +10.5 @ $1.92 (10.8 points)
Portland are banged up and have only covered ATS 3 of their last 8 road games. The Lakers young legs are much fresher and keep surprising the markets by covering ATS 12 of their last 17. Portland should win, but Lakers will keep it close.

Picksix good to hear it’s your passion as it’s mine outside of the real football haha, so will be good to have your thoughts when the season starts. Few of the lads on here do very well. Almost draft day :)
