ROGER FEDERER is through to the Australian Open Final and if Rafa Nadal joins him it will bring up a remarkable double that was 5000-1 pre-tournament.
That was the price William Hill were offering on a Federer/Nadal men's final and Williams sisters women's singles, with Serena and Venus keeping their side of the bargain by progressing to Saturday's showpiece.
Nadal has to get past in-form Grigor Dimitrov in this morning's last-four showdown and the Spaniard is 5-12 favourite at Marathonbet, who make Dimitrov a 43-19 chance.
There's also top darts action to enjoy tonight with the PDC Masters starting in Milton Keynes. Michael van Gerwen is just 8-13 at Sportingbet to retain his title while the opening night's matches include Dave Chisnall versus Raymond van Barneveld and Phil Taylor against Michael Smith.
There's plenty more sporting highlights worth a flutter today so feel free to share your tips and Jordan will post his US sports tips below.
In December 2020 we sadly 
Pacers/Timberwolves – Under 212 – *VOID*
It did look like it was going to land, but in the end I got lucky, a missed free throw kept the total at 212.
No worries, I’ll take a void on a night that I probably should have rested anyway lol.
Tonight’s card looks decent, hopeful to find some winners.

What a silly question
Euroleague Basketball
Both sides looking good offensively at the moment, they come off the back of good runs of form so defense may not be as foremost on the coaches minds. Also stats favour the overs – In the reverse fixture, we had a high scoring game totaling 180 points. Hopefully we’ll see something not too dissimilar this evening.

Taking a loss today after my US Basketball bombed. The NCAA match was 3 points over the total. The Nuggets are usually strong starters but just didn’t get going till the 2nd half.
Well done to any winners on a tough night!

Good luck dude..haven’t got Corel account to get the under 78.5 but on skybet the lines under 76.5 at evens..think it has a chance mate?..under 79.5 is 4/6 but think it’s bit too short for a single hmmm..?
You know two points is a lot with these types of lines but here’s some info that might help….
I had the same bet last time they met, there was 71 points in the first half. 76 and 77 points has been scored in the first half in the other two h2hs this season. The away teams tempo is the slowest in the league and they are solid in defence. they have also been under the line in the last 5 matches.
Thanks mate..manage to get under 77.5 on unibet.. at 43/50 .not better than ur under 78.5 but will chance it and good enough for a single..?..good luck dude…
@hunter phew that was close lol thanks for that tip mate 77 exactly ?..Top tipping!

AB didn’t disappoint as he top scored for SA in the cricket. He’s next level that’s for sure. In the Tennis Fed & Rafa both won and brought in a nice priced winner. Rafa/Dimitrov match was an absolute classic! Watch the highlights if you get a chance. So it’s a Fed/Rafa final which is what everyone wanted. Early leans are on Federer to win at 11/10 but gonna wait on the overs markets as this could go the distance.
Saw a bit of the Nadal game – classic.
Got to fancy Fed with that extra day’s rest.
Spot on Mr F. Rafa has had a few grueling games as well. Either way it should be one for the ages
Double for the morning, starting at 10am
Robin Hull win
Matthew Stevens win

Another rollercoaster with Hull coming for 4-1 down to level at 4-4 but eventually losing.

Cheers mate, trying to keep the trebles around that 4/1 mark, just glad to turn round from that poor start at beginning of January
Great stuff mate?
DeRozan was supposed to miss two games for Toronto, which he has, so it will be interesting to see if he plays tonight. Toronto are on a bad run and they’ll need him back quick, but they’ll take heart with two one-possession losses against Memphis and San Antonio. Milwaukee are on a bad run of their own and play on b2b nights, hosting Boston tomorrow. I’m going to put my faith in the Raptors ending their streak and get a W. Line opened at 4 and has gone out to 5 at the major US books so points to the same thinking.
Raptors -3.5 @ 4/5 @ Betfred – 2.5 points
DeRozan won’t play ?
Always best to check teams and only place a couple of bets and if they lose look to the next one.
Malaga most corners 6/5

Brazilian NBB Basketball
I’m taking an unusual trip to the Brazil where Sorocabana entertain Mourao in the NBB where I can see some great potential in another 1st half unders bet.
Neither of these teams have a fast paced tempo and although the number of points looks low, I think that this line is set too high. Sorocabana’s last game finished with 57 points in the first half and that was with a first quarter with only 13 points. I would be surprised to see that happen again but these two teams have the potential to deliver another 1st half unders.
Mourao @ Sorocabana (22:00GMT)
1st Half Total: Under (75.5) @ 9/10, Stan James 2.2pts staked.
Good luck!
LV Cup
Sale v Cardiff
Cardiff are putting out a young team against Sale for this cup tie, hence the big spread. Against Exeter they lost by 40 points so there maybe some value in that spread. However they did score 20+ points that night and could easily do the same tonight of they give Sale a run for their money or it turns into an exhibition.
Cardiff over 10.5 team points

Euroleague Basketball
I simply don’t see this being a low scoring game! Neither team places much emphasis on defence and Madrid are averaging 86ppg this season. Milano have struggled to put-up points this season but recently recorded 99 & 92 points in their most recent games. Overs for me but will take a risk on going above the line that has been set.

@raoul-duke ello mate..u still think wade will perform well tonight?..defo no whiteside – and I’m thinking wade 20+ points and bulls win which is 7/5 on PP..the skybet over 19.5 5/6 don’t look bad either..
Nah stay away from that game bro, there’s a lot of issues going on with the Bulls at the minute.
Wade and Butler aren’t even going to start, disciplinary action. The coach is fuming with them lol.
Thanks for the warning bro ?. Glad I seen that post in time haha…..??
Haha, no worries!
Any other thoughts tonight?
Looking for news on Kwai leaonard can’t find it anywhere bro…if he don’t play tonight Aldridge points total at over 19.5 looks good to me..skybet
And also very tempted by Kevin love over 19.5.skybet.? Cavs messed me up twice this week and I can’t see it happening a 3rd time..defo see a bounce bk here..and once again LBJ and love combine well early..
Will confirm in half hour haha
I really think the Cav’s have a huge game, i’ve been slating them recently.. but you gotta feel that LBJ has a huge game, and destroy the Nets.
That’s why I’ve picked the Under…228 is a big amount to cover in a very 1 sided game.
Yea.. im actually gunna take LBJ’s P,A&R too..
Good luck what ever you pick bro!
Nevermind actually.. odd’s aren’t good enough lol.
LBJ over 41.5 PA&R 8/11 I see why u left it – ? But I can see it flying in haha ???

Horrendous outcome today, none of the matches played out like I thought they would. Chisnall was always chasing Barney and it ultimately crashed the NB by a single leg. Gonna get back to the drawing board and hopefully make amends tomorrow.
