Ireland’s women will be out to restore some pride in Brisbane this morning after two defeats in World Cup Group B has seen them suffer an early exit from the tournament.
It’s been a baptism of fire for the Irish in their first appearance at the tournament in alongside Australia, Canada and an impressive Nigeria side but they’ve not been disgraced.
The Nigerians know that a draw or a win will guarantee their passage into the knock-out stages. A 3-2 win over hosts Australia proved they had plenty of firepower in their ranks and with plenty still at stake for the Africans the 23/20 on offer for a third Irish defeat looks appealing.
The group’s other match could be a cagey affair. Olympic champions Canada are in the box seat and a draw will be good enough for them to secure qualification at the expense of the Matildas.
An early exit wasn’t in the script for the host nation and they’re 6/5 to get the win they need in front of their own fans. It’s 4/6 that Canada avoid defeat.
Neither side have set the heather alight thus far and we can probably expect both teams to be cautious and try not to give too much away.
29 of the 36 matches so far have failed to see both teams score so it’s surprise to see this one priced at 4/5 for No to BTTS.
No early goal before 32:00 is handily priced at 5/6.

Horse Racing Tips
Rizzel has reverted back to jumps racing for one of his two selections on Monday
As ever, please share your tips in for today in the comments section below.
Gent, Club Brugge, OLS all win
1 unit @ evens skybet
Pot : ➕ 48 units profit 📈 💸 💰
❌❌❌
Really poor stuff ⬆️
On a positive note only a handful of days till the real football is back 💸 💰
Best of luck everyone this week, I’ll be very quiet researching all the English leagues. One large staked racing bet tomorrow is very likely.
Not usually my bet but Btts could be a lucrative market this coming weekend, the kick off last season seen plenty land, defences still getting up to speed etc.
My tennis plays today
L Van Assche to beat A Molcan 1.80, William Hill
Have been impressed with the improvements in Van Assche over the past 12 months and I think he will be too good for Molcan. These two players are in opposite trajectories of their careers. Molcan has lost his last 4 matches and will be up against a player who has been steadily rising over recent months and his game should match up well here. With Molcan being a lefty it will go up against the good backhand of Van Assche and Molcan also doesn’t have the power to outhit him. I think Van Assche should be a shorter price than he is based on form this season.
F Misolic -2.5 Games v G Andreozzi 1.92, Unibet
I backed Andreozzi yesterday but I will go against him this time around. Misolic loves the conditions in his home tournament having made the finals here last year. Andreozzi is a declining player with his best years behind him and is now also ranked 240.
H Medjedovic to beat S Baez 2.0, William Hill (NB)
The conditions in Kitzbuhel should really suit the Medjedovic game as outlined by his dominating performances in qualifying. He also performed very well in similar high altitude conditions in Gastad where he reached the semi finals losing to eventual champion Cachin. His powerful game and big serve will win him a lot of free points in this one. He plays Baez who has been pretty poor recently losing 6 out of his last 7 matches, 4 of which were on his preferred clay surface. He did play better against Ruud last time out but you would have slight question marks over this due to the poor performance level of Ruud during Hamburg. This is likely to be close but given the faster clay conditions here and with Medjedovic having the bigger game and better serve I give him the nod in this match up.
Double:
H Medjedovic & D Galan 5+ Aces each 2.42, Bet365
Both players have good serves and with the conditions in Kitzbuhel this should have a very good chance. I would be shocked if Medjedovic doesn’t get closer to 10 aces and Galan has been hitting decent numbers recently even on much slower clay courts. Last week in Hamburg for example he hit 7 aces in losing in straight sets.
Long shot:
H Medjedovic 10+ aces v S Baez 5.0, Bet365
In 2 qualifying matches H Medjedovic hit a massive 36 aces. These faster clay conditions clearly suit his game and with the way he serves this should have a good chance especially if the match is relatively close.
Will have some further plays later today for the matches tonight in Washington.
Good luck everyone with your bets
Looking good Van Assche . GL . Thanks 🤞🍻
L Van Assche to beat A Molcan is also the NAP today.
Rep of Ireland v Nigeria
Nigeria’s odds have lengthened to 29/20, maybe the Irish punters have put money on their own side.
As well as the Nigerian win I’ve backed over 2.5TG at 8/1.
Sixfold acca today, mix of Swedish, Polish & Icelandic leagues:-
Btts:
Aarhus v Nordsjelland
Sirius v AIK
Katowice v Chrobry Glogow
Over 2.5mgls:
Malmö v Varnamo
KR Reykjavik v Valur
Keflavik v Hafnarfjordur
If you fancy all six, the acca pays just under 22/1.
Good luck all today😎
I like the look of some corners in the 11am WWC games.
Australia have it all to play for. They hit 15 corners in their last match, with 6 in the first game. A 10 corner team average when they need to go for it in Melbourne v Canada, makes the team corner markets appeal.
In the other game, Ireland are interesting. Out of contention but 7 corners and 6 corners in their matches.
Lets try some team corners
Australia team corners
Over 5.5 @2.1
Over 6.5 @ 2.85
Over 7.5 @ 4
Over 8.5 @ 5.8
Ireland team corners
Over 4.5 @ 1.91
Over 5.5 @ 2.75
1pt singles on the above.
Early shout here folks for weekend. I almost burst my stitches when I saw hearts were 11/8 to win at St Johnstone this weekend. The Saints have had a shocking start to the season in the cup sections, topped up by losing 4-0 to Stirling Albion on Saturday. Hearts will be odds on by the weekend, get on this now would be my advice.
Why not. 4/0 on hillies
50/1.
Also done other scores.
Cheers.
totally agree with you on that one, I had a wee nibble when they got drilled 0-4 at home to a team who were in a league 2 standards below them last season at the weekend..
More importantly lets hope their poor start continues when they get to the line at the weekend…
I thought the Jam Tarts would be 10/111 at best. Couldn’t believe me eyes when I saw 11/8. Will get hammered that price
Killie at 6/1 are big to beat Rangers too. Beale has too many new players that still have too bond.

Final tennis plays today just focusing on 3 matches.
Double
M Giron to beat R Albot / J Shang to beat E Gomez 1.80, Pinnacle
Shang has already beaten Gomez twice before in straight sets with the most recent just a few weeks ago. His consistent game should prove too much for Gomez. Giron would have to play quite poorly to lose against Albot as he’s simply the better player. Likely to be some long rallies but I would expect Giron to get the better of most.
J shang to beat E Gomez 2-0 1.73, Bet365
As stated above Shang should really be too good in this one. Gomez has also been losing heavily recently to fellow lefties.
M Giron -3.5 Games v R Albot 1.99 Pinnacle
Worth a small play as I do feel Giron should win in straight sets.
Y Watanuki v Y Wu Over 22.5 Games 1.93 Pinnacle
Expecting this to be close match. Wu tends to play well in America and if he is hitting his powerful forehand well then he will be hard to beat. However, he’s low on confidence at the moment having won only 2 games since May. Watanuki is the steadier player of the two and I do think this has a great chance of either having a tie break or going to 3 sets.
Good luck with your bets
Nordic treble tonight….
AGF Aarhus most match corners 5/6
Orebro v GAIS over 10 match corners 4/5
Utsikten 2+ team goals 11/8
13/2 treble
Best of luck all

BTTS 13-10 HILLS.
BTTS and over 2.5 goals 2-1 HILLS
Soacha were known as “valledupar” until last month when they upped sticks and moved to a new 7000 capacity stadium in soacha after falling out over lack of support from the local authorities in valledupar.
3 head to heads this year seen 1-1 draws and the last 6 and 10 of last 11 seen BTTS.
Prediction 2-1
