Pre-tournament favourite Rory McIlroy lived up to his billing on the opening day at St Andrew's, carding a six-under-par 66 to sit in second place on the leaderboard overnight.
The Irishman trails American Cameron Young by two shots but is in perfect position to mount a charge to the top on day 2. That's all good news for backers of The Caddy's headline tip, whom he advised at 10/1 on Tuesday.
The Caddy's other tips aren't faring too badly, Xander Schaffelle is within touching distance in T13th while Sam Burns is eight shots off the pace on level par for his opening round at the Old Course.
Some golfers didn't find the benign conditions very helpful however, just ask Tiger Woods who shot a +6 round to leave him unlikely to make the cut. Bad news for Tiger but more good news for The Caddy who's Super Banker Nap is Ryan Fox, who shot a one under round, to beat Woods in the matchbet.
In Ireland Cobh Ramblers should be thankful that Athone Town are in the same league as them. Of the nine points they've won this season, six have come against the only team beneath them in the table. Their other three points have come against the two teams immediately above them. That means their record against teams in the top half of the table reads P14 W0 D0 L14.
Tonight's visitors are Waterford who have taken four goals off Cobh in each of their two meetings this season (and five back in January). Sowe should expect a comfortable away win in Cork this evening. Waterford to win and score Over 2.5 Goals pays 11/10 at BetVictor.
Alternatively, double up Waterford with Danish side Midtjylland who start their campaign at home to Randers tonight. They've a strong record against tonight's opponents (W8 D2 L0) and when paired with the Irishmen pays a 51/50 Double.

Morning everyone,
Think the prices are generous for England women tonight as they take on NI. Played three time recently at England have won 4-0, 5-0 & 6-0. In the last 8 meetings England are 44-2 against NI. Managers has said there won’t be too many changes from the team that beat Norway 8-0. Even if it is the second stringers, I still think they will be far to good.
England to score over 4.5 goals looks good at 13/8. Safer bet of England -3.5 is 3/4.

I was amazed to see this bet at odds against, especially with the gulf between the teams and with the way England dispatched a decent Norway team 8-0 last game.
England are miles better than semi professional Northern Ireland and this will surely be about how many England score. Their 8-0 demolition of Norway was something to behold and they’ve really hit their straps now. They also haven’t looked like conceding yet, Norway and Austria barely got out of their own half v England; a combined total of 3 shots on target was all both could muster. Northern Ireland have lost to both Austria (2-0) and Norway (4-1) and it could be a case of just defending deep and keeping the scoreline down against the mighty Lionesses. It would be an almighty shock if they became the first team to breach the English defence this tournament. In fact, England have only conceded 1 goal in their last 7 games – against their tournament rivals Holland in a crushing 5-1 win.
England have played Northern Ireland twice recently in World Cup qualifiers. England won 0-5 in Belfast in April and 4-0 at Wembley last October. In both of those games combined, Northern Ireland mustered just a single shot. I can see a similar game this time around at a packed out St Mary’s.
The only thing that can stop this bet landing – in my opinion – is if England make sweeping changes due to them already qualifying for the knockout stages. I’ll be keeping a close eye on team news when it’s announced.
Good luck all ??

Afternoon gents,
Poor couple of days with my picks and looking to get back on track with some goals bets tonight…
NI W VS ENGLAND W (8.00pm)
The English ladies certainly looked to have their peckers up as they massacred Norway and it may well be that they grab a few again tonight!
I also fancy Lauren Hemp to smoke her Irish opponents (sorry) and grab a goal at a tasty looking price – well worth shopping around on this one as 365 and others are paying as low as a measly 4/7.

This site’s tips just can not be trusted ,too often they are putting stupid tips with no substance behind them.

Don’t look then not hard to understand. Completely disagree with you just a bunch of good people sharing views ?♀️
I rarely follow tips on the site as i try to use my own knowledge and study. However i take bits out of it usually for bet builders. Like tonight i used Johnny blade and Kris Jones tips and added them in to a bet build which i added cards and corner markets and it came in.
Midtjylland to win against randers was a very dodgy tip to give @2/5.
You obviously backed it then ?

They are amateur (ameture) in your hindsight when they lose, fair enough.
There would be creedence to your post if you gave us all the benefit of your expertise before the game.
If bookies paid out in hindsight we’d all be rich now wouldn’t we ??
I’m having a crap run this week myself Johnny so any tips from your good self would be welcome ⚽
I’m sure johnny123 knows of a couple of fixed matches he can share with us, Elvis ?

BOTH teams to score 10-11 (HILLS) NAP ??
Side bets
Over 2.5 match goals 5-4 (UNIBET)
BTTS and over 2.5 goals 13-8 (HILLS)
Sarmiento BTTS in 7 of last 10 home games.
Defensa BTTS in 7 of last 10 away games.
In 7 previous head to head here 6 were BTTS and overs with sarmiento scoring in all 7.
Sarmiento failed to score in 6 of last 10 games which is a drawback.
Prediction 1-1 , 2-1 either way better of course.
