Weekend racing odds and preview The Fighting Fifth Hurdle and the Ladbrokes Trophy are the standout contests on a hugely exciting afternoon of racing on ITV. Buveur D’Air and Samcro are vying for favouritism in the former. While a competitive field in the latter sees Elegant Escape, Thomas Patrick and Ms Parfois all near the top of the market. Get set for an exciting…

The latest news and weekend lookahead from the Tizzard crew We were delighted with Native River and Thistlecrack last weekend. They’ve both come back in great shape and we’re looking forward to what will come next now. Native River found the track a bit too stiff but he ran on well and it looked a really good run in his quest to win the…

It’s been a strong year for the rookies coming into the NBA and none more so than Luka Doncic. He will come up against an old great on Friday evening though, as the Mavs face the Lakers. All signs point toward King James coming out on top too. Here are the games to follow on Friday. Pelicans @ Heat Saturday, 1 December, 01:00 A big road win…

We’re not even a week into December, but the first silverware of the season is up for grabs in Scotland this weekend as Celtic and Aberdeen face each other in Sunday’s League Cup final. There are big games elsewhere between Hearts and Rangers, and Kilmarnock and Hibs. This will be one of the best weekends of the Scottish season so far. Here are four picks…

We all know it doesn’t really matter if your accumulator crashes out with three loses or if it misses out by seconds because ultimately the result is the same, but there’s something about the latter that is infinitely more frustrating. Last weekend my 12/1 treble missed out by a single goal in a game where Everton could have scored at least four. The plus from…

Odds and preview for North London Derby? North London’s big guns face off again today at the Emirates. Bragging rights are obviously at stake, but this meeting has far more to it than just local rivalry. Tottenham Hotspur are flying at present, and are aiming to keep the heat on table-toppers Manchester City. As for Arsenal, victory here would see them leapfrog Spurs on…

Coral ambassador also previews Ladbrokes Trophy ride It was great to have Thistlecrack back last weekend at Haydock. I thought he ran a tremendous race which puts him back on track for the King George where he is sure to have a great chance. His jumping was a little slow at one or two of them but the fences at the track were very…

Could Fury pull off the upset and win back the belt? The big fight moves ever closer as Tyson Fury takes on Deontay Wilder for the WBC Heavyweight championship this weekend. Wilder at 4/6 may be the favourite to win on home turf. But in spite of this only being Fury’s second- ever bout across the pond, he’s being backed at 5/4 to cause an upset. Coral’s…

🇩🇪 Bundesliga ACCA: Leipzig get big chance to close in on the summit Bayern are fast becoming the world’s biggest ACCA wreckers. Our perfect four from the last Bundesliga weekend was ruined by the title holders contriving to throw away a two-goal advantage, at home, to newly promoted Fortuna…in the last 15 minutes. Other than that it was excellent form all over from our tipped teams…

The business end of the regular season is here and the battle to reach the playoffs is well and truly on. We’ve seen a glut of injuries in the last week, which has impacted a number of teams and I think that makes it easier to pick some winners. No team has a bye week remaining and for the first time in ages we have…

Coral ambassador discusses Red Devils’ issues Manchester United got the result they needed against Young Boys on Tuesday and they have qualified from what was a tough group, facing Juventus and Valencia, with a game in hand. Compare that to Tottenham, who have one of their best ever starts to a Premier League season and Liverpool who are meant to be the real deal,…

Odds and preview ahead of the big fight Deontay Wilder v Tyson Fury. Many are calling it the fight of year in the heavyweight division. The talking finally stops and two of the biggest names in the sport collide in Los Angeles in the early hours of Sunday morning. The Mike Costello and Steve Bunce BBC Radio show said this could be the most…

Former Newcastle legend looks ahead to crunch capital clash It’s been a good week for Tottenham. Not only did they beat Inter Milan to keep their hopes of qualifying from their Champions League group alive, but they absolutely battered Chelsea last weekend too. They probably should have scored six or seven and were better in every position than Chelsea and now seem to be…
