FOOTBALL – CHAMPIONS LEAGUE ROUND OF 16 

Star forwards to lead the charge for both sides? Nkunku & Haaland Both to Score?

Leipzig currently sit 5th in the Bundesliga, albeit only five points off the summit, but will now turn their attention to their first leg Champions League meeting with Man City, who may be reeling from their dropped points against Nottingham Forest in the Premier League title race.

Christopher Nkunku has been absent for the German side since suffering an injury back in November last year, but made a cameo at the weekend and is still the side's leading goalscorer this season despite missing five league matches - 12 goals, which is only one off the leading Bundesliga goalscorer. Will the Frenchman prove the difference maker here for his side?

Meanwhile on the opposing side, City's Erling Haaland has scored six career goals against Leipzig already - his joint most against one single opponent. Can the Norwegian get on the scoresheet once again?

Nkunku and Haaland Both to Score can be backed at a fixed odds price of 17/10! We have also BOOSTED Haaland to score Anytime from 87/100 to Evens!

Will Liverpool v Real Madrid produce a classic heavyweight encounter? 

Fixtures between these sides have produced mixed encounters - some tight and cagey, and others full of action and excitement. All nine previous meetings between the two sides have come in the European Cup/Champions League, and saw the first three won by Liverpool, but the next six won by Madrid. Can the Reds make the most of their recent upturn in form and balance the scales with a win that could prove vital to their season?

Four of the last five meetings have seen no goals scored in the first half. 1st Match Goal is available at a pre-match spread of 34 - 37. Would you buy or sell?

We have a range of BOOSTS for the match, including:

Benzema to Score Anytime - 7/5 > 13/8

Salah to Score Anytime - 11/8 > 31/20

Van Dijk to Score a Header - 11/1 > 18/1

Fabinho to be Booked Anytime - 2/1 > 27/10

FOOTBALL – efl cup final

Who will come out victorious and claim the first major English domestic trophy of the season? Man Utd are favoured to do so within 90 minutes – 5/4!

Newcastle's chances may be hampered by the suspension of goalkeeper Nick Pope, meaning reserve stopper Loris Karius is expected to stand between the posts.

Karius gained his notoriety from this clanger-filled performances during his time at Liverpool, including of course the 2018 Champions League final. Newcastle to not keep a clean sheet is available at 1/4.

The last time the two sides met, there was a 0-0 draw at Old Trafford. Another stalemate here would mean extra-time - Utd to win in ET is 8/1, Newcastle at 10/1!

CRICKET – NEW ZEALAND V ENGLAND 

Back-to-Back Baz Ball Test wins for England? England To Win The Second Test – 11/10

England's Test resurgence continued with a 267-run victory over New Zealand in the pink-ball series opener, and they will look to make it two from two with another dominant victory here.

In the first Test, Harry Brook continued his sparkling start to life as a Test cricketer and the duo of Stuart Broad and James Anderson saw their bowling partnership reach 15 years and a record 1,009 wickets! Will those players be the key men again here, or will someone else grab the headlines?

England are 11/10 to continue their fine form and beat New Zealand once again - will you be backing them to do so?

Another Andy Murray Marathon? – BUY TOTAL POINTS @ 153

Andy Murray has continued to defy expectations of a tennis player - or person in general - with a metal hip at the top level of sport, and has already produced several moments of Murray Magic in the first two months of the year. An upset victory over Matteo Berrettini and coming out on top in his career-longest match against Thanasi Kokkinakis were the highlights of his trip to the Australian Open, and he proved his battling qualities once again in the first round of ATP Doha as he saved two match points to win a third-set tie break against Italy's Lorenzo Sonego.

The Scot will now face Alexander Zverev, who is making his own way back after serious injury. Murray has won three of the four previous meetings, and the last two matches have produced tight and competitive encounters. With Murray's apparent inevitability to get himself in marathon matches and with Zverev in need of court time, could this be another long one?

If you think so, buying on the Total Points spread may be profitable.
