The FA Cup takes centre stage on Saturday despite having to share the bill with three Premier League matches. The clash between Chelsea and Leicester City offers a genuinely intriguing encounter with plenty of sub-plots at play.
Brendan Rodgers has the chance to cement his name in to the history books by becoming the first manager to win the famous trophy for the Foxes. He'd also be the first British manager to lift the cup since Harry Redknapp bossed Portsmouth to success in 2008.
Thomas Tuchel on the other hand could crown a stunning introduction to English football by adding silverware to an already impressive first season at the Stamford Bridge helm. A win would set him up nicely to pull off an incredible cup double with a Champions League final against Man City on the horizon too.
The two sides are also vying for Champions League qualification in the league and will meet again on Tuesday in another must-win game thanks to Liverpool breathing down both their necks.
None of this helps us determine who will left the cup though so thankfully KevMac has put his neck on the line in our FA Cup Final Match Preview and he's edging towards the trophy staying in London.
The return of some 20,000 fans will be a sight to warm the hearts of many around the country and they shoud be treated to a cup cracker.Enjoy
Of the three Premier League matches Southampton could be the best bet to win at home against a deflated, relegated Fulham at evens (Bet365).
In Scotland, Rangers can complete an unbeaten league campaign with a win against Abdereen at Ibrox. It wouldn't be a surprise to see the Premiership champions sign-off in style and hit Over 2.5 goals at 11/8.

The Tipsters' Tips
Well done to Mark Walker who scored a terrific full house on Friday night in his Newcastle v Man City preview with three winners at Evens, 15/8 and 9/1 as the champions ran out 4-3 winners in an entertaining, if meaningless encounter. SlipsTips bet on Over 2 Newcastle corners also landed comfortably to make it a very profitable night.
Mark is back with his best Scottish Bets this weekend where Motherwell, St Mirren and Rangers are in his sights. While SlipsTips takes a trip to Italy for the Rome derby where he has a Cards bet at 4/5.
Greg MacLean scored a winner on his debut on Thursday and has earmarked an 11/10 Double in Italy and Portugal for our Bet of the Day on Saturday.
Desmond tries his luck for the last time this season with usual goals tips, this week from the National League, as he aims to emulate his brilliant full house from a couple of weeks ago. This week his Acca Tip pays 57/1 – Don't miss it.
With limited games in the UK punters will look to Europe for some value so check out Scott's European BTTS Tips and his European Treble which pays 4/1.
Huge thanks to all our team once again for all our tips and all our match previews ahead of the weekend.

Golf Tips
The Caddy's 50/1 shot Calum Hill is still in the hunt at the British Masters. He's one of six players who are tied in second, one off the pace and plenty to play for in the final round.
Jordan Spieth is still the best placed of The Caddy's picks at the AT&T Byron Nelson. At the time of writing he's tied 5th but with a bit of ground to make up on leader Sam Burns who is six shots ahead of him.

Good luck with all your bets on Saturday!
In December 2020 we sadly 
Final day in the SPL and decent games involving Celtic & Rangers, should be 2 good games for the auld combo…
Hibs v Celtic
Over 1.5 gls & 8.5 plus 30+ corners – 5/2 NAP
Rangers v Aberdeen
Over 1.5 gls & 8.5 plus 30+ corners – 13/8 NB
Both with Skybet
—
Longshot double with PP – Free punt after Creative Force could only get 2nd after leading the whole race before getting caught in last half furlong.
Celtic to score in both halves & take 2+ corners each half
Rangers to score both halves & take 3+ 3+ corners each half
26/1+ wi PP
Might be a bit of a push for both games to have 30 plus corners.
Obviously know what you meant, both bets look good.
😂😂😂 aye your correct, shite prices for that eh. 30+ BP’s 👍
& it’s 8.5 corners…
Just to clarify alves bet
Over 1.5 booking points.
Over 85 corners.
30+ goals
👍
😂😂😂
Risk free betbuilder wi PP…49/1+
2+ goals
Leicester 3+ corners
Azpilicueta & Tielemans cards
Augsburg v werder Bremen

Southampton over 1.5 team goals at EVS
1 point
Well done to winners yesterday. Espanyol were up to nothing and lost 2-0 at home.
On to today
Schalke vs Eintracht 🇩🇪
Eintracht are still chasing a Champions League spot and with only two fixtures remaining they must make the most of playing a poor Schalke side who are confirmed as relegated having won only two games all season.
Eintracht to score 3+ 4/5 @ SkyBet NB
Chesterfield vs Wealdstone 🏴
Chesterfield are big favourites and currently occupy a playoff spot. They’ll want to look to cement their position against a Wealdstone side that have conceded 93 goals already. Chesterfield scored 4+ in their last two.
Chesterfield to score 3+ 8/11 @ UniBet
Eastleigh vs Barnet 🏴
Playoff chasing Eastleigh have two games in hand on some of the sides above them so need a win today to keep the chase alive. Barnet have leaked 80+ goals and relegation looms. Whilst Eastleigh haven’t been prolific they should have too much here.
Eastleigh to score 2+ 4/5 @ UniBet NAP
⚽️ Rangers v Aberdeen – Bet Builder – NAP @ 2.74 w Sport Nation ⚽️
Rangers HT/FT
Both Teams to Score – No
Reasoning – fancy there being no let up from Gerrard here and for Rangers to go out with a bang, another clean sheet the obvious pick also
Good Luck
Also found a nice NB also
⚽️ Lewndowski to Score before 75 mins @ 2.375 w Bet Victor ⚽️
Reasoning – going for the goal scoring record and I can see Bayern players lining up to support the main man here. He is ridiculous odds on to score anytime and if he does the chance of it being before 75 mins seems too good to turn down at this price
Good Luck
Lewandoski bet looks a great bit of value compared to AGS
Not a lot I fancy today but I’ve managed to pick out a NAP and NB from 🇦🇺 and England that I’m hoping will put a few Bob in the bank for tomorrow where there’s lots I like. No time for write ups this morning so good luck with your bets today folks

Rangers over 1.5tgs
Aberdeen over 1.5 cards
Jack Simpson to be carded @ 9/1 (bet365)
Think DC pointed him out against Livingston and he was booked early again, think 9/1 is worth a small dabble on him and he shouldn’t be the longest priced defender playing today.
BTTS double @ 1.2/1 (bet365)
Asane vs Fredrikstad
Ranheim vs Grorud
Team goals
Fredrikstad over 1.5tgs @ 10/11 (bet365)
Fredrikstad over 2.5tgs @ 3/1 (bet365)
First game of the league and normally avoid the first few to see how things play out but just like the prices on offer. Asane should be challenging top end of this division but the way they set up usually means they can be leaky at the back. They have lost some of their better players and a coach to bigger teams since last season.
Fredrikstad have just been promoted which is a tough ask in most cases in Norway , but they have impressed me for years with their attacking intent , and haven’t lost any of their top players. In a few of their recent friendlies (can only read so much into them) they have blown away some much better sides so capable of a goal or two, and albeit in the league below they have hit 2+ goals in 30 of their last 34 games so worth a go I feel.
Following on with anything else , and good luck with all your bets 🤞🤞

Good Afternoon Guys,
With both teams safe, but with nothing to play for, having a free bet punt at both team to score both halves
at 17/2 at Paddy power – Burley vs Leeds United.
Hoping for an entertaining game!
Good Luck with all bets today!
Sunday
Willem II v Fortuna Sittard
Fortuna Sittard +1 asian handicap @ 1.90 with BV
I just can’t see this being a gifted home win.
Am not expecting a classic in the FA Cup Final today but have still lined up a 29/1 bet builder which I felt confident enough to risk a £25 stake.
Result wise it could go either way but taking aside Leicester’s win against United (which they really made hard work of and Chelsea’s blip against Arsenal), the form side is definitely Chelsea but I’m going to steer away from the result and goals (as it could be 1:1 , 1:0 or 2:1 either way).
My bet is as follows..
Mason Mount over 0.5 SOT
Toni Werner over 0.5 assists
Chelsea over 0.5 cards
Leicester over 0.5 cards
Chelsea over 5 corners
Over 10 match corners
£25 returns £725 with Bet365
If I was going to be more greedy I might of been inclined to go for Jorginho to be booked or over 5 corners for each side, as I’m sure if Leicester score Chelsea will attack down the wings and crank up the corners and if Chelsea score Leicester won’t go down without a fight.
Good luck to all with your bets. Let’s hope for that rare thing, an exciting FA Cup Final. Don’t happen very often.
Not much to go for today so just on a couple of punts on the Bundesliga:
All games over 2.5gls @ 25/1 with Bet365
All games Btts @ 35/1 (boosted) with WH
3 goals shy on the btts, 6 on the overs. Worth a punt but not to be ❌
Total wipe out for me in the SPL all bets LOSERS . Not even close
Afternoon gents,
Close but no cigar for me again yesterday with just a Grotta goal lacking for a Full House 😔

No goals for Vardy downs the bets ❌ but happy to see Leicester win!

Italy good. Germany not so much. Both teams seemingly happy with draw despite being in a relegation battle. Bad pick. Hopefully better luck tonight
