Man Utd have more than a foot in the Europa League final after a resounding 6-2 win over Roma on Thursday but Arsenal still have a lot of work to do when they host Villiarreal next week.
The Red Devils came from 2-1 down to blow the Italians away in the second half and barring a spectacular collapse in the Eternal City next week will take their place in Gdansk in May.
Who they will face remains less clear. The Gunners clawed their way back in to the tie after conceding a couple of early in Spain but a Nicolas Pepe's second-half penalty will give Mikel Arteta's renewed hope that they can turn the tie around.
United are just 1/2 (Unibet) to lift the trophy, Arsenal are 4/1 (BetVictor). Villarreal are best-priced 15/4 while Roma are now rank outsiders at 200/1 (BetVictor).
Back to the Premier League on Friday and FA Cup finalists Leicester City can move eight points clear of Chelsea in third place. The Foxes travel to Southampton for a re-run of the cup semi-final which Leicester won 1-0.
The Saints looked to have found their mojo mid-season but they've now lost 12 of their last 15 Premier League matches and look like a side who just want the season to end. They're highly unlikely to get drawn in to the relegation dog-fight now which makes the 6/5 (Coral) on the away win look very handy indeed.
Leicester have scored two or more in six of their last eight and with Kelechi Iheanacho in unstoppable form you wouldn't back against them doing so again at even money with Marathonbet. Don't miss SlipsTips' BetBuilder tips for the match.

Racing Tips – Thommo's Last Day
Sadly, our expert racing tipster Alan Thomson is hanging up his whip and retiring from the site and today's tips will be his last on the site. Thommo worked with and was a good friend of Mr Fixit so it's especially sad to see him leave us.
He's provided hundreds of winners for us on the site over the year and his expertise and humility will be greatly missed. We wish him all the best and thank him for his contributions.
It would be just typical of Thommo to sign-off in style and you can follow his tips for Friday here;
The man tasked with picking up the mantle from Thommo is Rizzel Tips, who some of you will remember from his brilliant tips last year at some of the festival meetings. He makes hiw bow on Saturday and we wish him the best of luck in leading us to bashing the bookies.
Golf Tips
If you're not following The Caddy's golf tips, why not? His 80/1 outsider tip Keegan Bradley leads at the Valspa Open by two strokes after the first round and is now around the 17/2 mark to win the tournament.
Sungjae Im isn't too far behind on -3 either so it could be another exciting weekend if you've backed his tips. Fingers crossed for another profitable one.
Good luck with all your bets on Friday!
Plenty of games on Friday but these two were the only two games I was really interested in, should be goals in both.
AaB vs Lyngby
Both teams to score
Antwerp vs Genk
Both teams to score
Double pays
1.54/1 (William Hill)
Reasoning below ??
AaB vs Lyngby
Superliga ??
Friday 30th April, 17:05
AaB have scored in 10 of their 13 home games scoring 18 goals.
AaB have conceded in 10 of their 13 home games conceding 19 goals.
Lyngby have scored in 10 of their 13 away games scoring 20 goals.
Lyngby have conceded in 12 of their 13 away games conceding 26 goals.
Both of these sides regularly find the back of the net in their respective home and away games but also struggle to keep clean sheets. These two sides recent head to heads this season have finished 2-2 and 3-2 and I’m hoping they’ll be more goals when these sides meet with both contributing.
Antwerp vs Genk
Pro League ??
Friday 30th April, 19:45
Antwerp have scored in 14 of their 17 home games scoring 30 goals.
Antwerp have conceded in 14 of their 17 home games conceding 25 goals.
Genk have scored in 13 of their 17 away games this season scoring 29 goals.
Genk have conceded in 15 of their 17 away games conceding 28 goals.
Both these sides finished 2nd & 4th in the regular season and a big part of that is the amount of goals both sides score. Both sides do however struggle to keep clean sheets. Both sides meetings this season have been entertaining 4-2 & 3-2. The latter was only 13 days ago, let’s hope for another goal heavy game with both sides contributing.
Antwerp Genk is one of my picks today as well, so will follow on the other one also ??
BTTS double @ 1.3/1 (bet365)nap
Paksi vs Puskas
Aarau vs Grasshoppers
Over 2.5mgs treble @ 1.1/1 (bet365)nb
Sputnik 2 vs Soligorsk 2
Magpies vs Europa Point
Thor Akureyri vs Magni
QOS vs Dundee
Stephen Dobbie anytime @ 10/3 (skybet)
This ones more of speculative bet. Dobbie is qos’s top goal scorer, has broken all kinds of club records there for goals, is a club legend and regarded as one of their best players of all time. He has had a poor season this time with only 3 league goals and hasn’t started as many games this season with age most likely catching up with him at 36. This however will be his last game at the club and with qos safe from the drop with nothing to play for I can see him getting the full 90. Both he and his team mates I would imagine will be desperate to see him put one away here, regardless if Dundee win or not. His debut for the club was against Dundee , and his first club goal was against Dundee , so it would only be fitting for his last appearance and last ever goal to be against the same club. Football has a funny way of seeing things like that happen over the years , and with some bookies offering as little as 6/5 on him to score , for nostalgia sake I’m happy to stick him on at 10/3.
Good luck with all your bets ?
2nd top goal scorer *** ?
Pity the fans couldnt be there to give him the send off he deserves, hes been carrying an injury most of the season and hasnt fitted into the system Queens are playing at all this season I would hope he will get an hour at least tonight , its the last game for the loan players tonight so hard to know what to expect
True that , wouldn’t surprise me to see him back coaching etc at some point in the future. Shame he couldn’t finish with a goal
Best of of luck for the future Alan ☘

FC GOA VS AL Wahda Abu dhabi

Bet To Consider – Over 2 goals in match
Long shot –
BetBuilder:
BTTS NO
OVER 3 goals
Odds – 8
LOST BOTH bets
Thanks to park the bus tactics
Some brilliant winners on the site last night . Well done to all of them .
?? For me today for all bets and Adelaide take on western United. Cards and corners for me as well as the home men to take the points. Contrasting form leads me to believe the reds can take the points here they have 6 wins from 8 at coopers stadium while United only have 2 away wins all season- both to the bottom 2. Recent overall form favours United but I think the home men will just edge them and I’ve a free bet going on 2-1.western United are great team to back for cards, I’ve mentioned a couple of times about uskok and Sanchez almost being a standing order and they both obliged last week again but I’m happy to settle for any 2 cards and western to “win” that particular battle for my other bets. Good luck today.

MVV v Volendam
Joy-Lance Mickels (MVV) to score anytime @ 4.20 with unibet
This guy is only a regular starter since the end of February and got 10 starts since then.
He now scored 6 in his last 9. I think this price is a bit big
Marseille’s Dimitri Payet to score. @3.30 unibet
He look well in the mood last time out, notching to last time out.
With Marseille in fantastic scoring form and Payet on Penalty duty (last 5 games at Marseilles ground between this two teams has seen a pen).
I will be hoping he is in the mood again.
They have a good record against the opposition in this fixture and chasing a European place I would put anyone off the straight win @1.85
Best of luck

⚽️ MVV Maastricht v Volendam – Dutch Eerste Division ⚽️
Over 3.5 goals
Both Teams to Score
NAP @ 2.70 w Unibet (boosted to 2.79 with Uniboost)
Reasoning – decent odds for over 3.5 in a Dutch game here and no reason why if it does go to 4 goals, both won’t get on the score sheet. Decent number of goals going in for both sides of late and I expect a fairly even game too
Best of Luck

Does anyone know what’s happened to Greg browning? Thanks in advance.
Think he’s gone to the darkside (charges for tips)..
I wondered if he carried on with the Belarus dossier he compiled during lockdown.
Had a few wins after a few months on them games.
Goals/corners mainly, never bet on corners myself except for that
Was handy as that was basically the only league to focus on at the time ..
He does a weekly podcast with Gambla which you can listen to for free. Otherwise Elvis is correct, you have to subscribe to his paid tips and even on the podcast you get the feeling he is holding his best back (perhaps understandably) for the tipster service.
Podcast is a good listen though
I still duck my head in from time to time but the guys are right, most of my time is focused on my members service

Bk Milan to score 11-10 main bet….

Side bet BTTS 6-4
????????
Both at BETFAIR SPORTSBOOK.
Same bets at Paddy power evens and 13-10
BTTS at hills is 6-4.
It’s United v Milan, well not quite ?.
Brikama kept 2 clean sheets in the last 13 home league games but they have come in the last month.
10 of these 13 saw BTTS.
Milan saw BTTS in 7 of last 10 away games.
Brikama won at Milan 2-0 last month which dampens my enthusiasm slightly.
Milan lost only 2 of 8 away games drawing 5.
*** Milan played the top 3 this season, scoring v leaders fortune (fortune only conceded 2 in 14 games) and scoring away at armed forces 2nd and ports authority 3rd.
Of course you will all be familiar with these world powers of soccer ????.
Prediction 1-1

No luck today, onto Sunday
