Three More Points for the Premier League Leaders

Premier League leaders Liverpool are back in action on Sunday, as Arne Slot takes his Reds to the London Stadium to play Julen Lopetegui’s West Ham United. The Hammers are on a four-game unbeaten run, but the Merseyside club are fancied to win this one in England’s capital.

Liverpool picked up another victory on Boxing Day, beating Leicester City 3-1 at Anfield. West Ham have won two and drawn two of their last four, but the Reds should be too hot to handle in the capital. We are backing the away win and both teams to score at 2.50.

Littler to Ease into Round Four at Ally Pally

The darts is back this weekend, with several mouth-watering matches taking place. On Saturday night, Luke Littler and Ian White go head-to-head in third-round action at Ally Pally. “The Nuke” is the strong favourite to see off the 54-year-old.

Littler, a finalist last year, started his 2025 tournament with a 3-1 victory over Ryan Meikle. The 17-year-old is easing his way into the competition, and he should cruise past White on Saturday night. Our money is going on Littler to win -2.5 at 1.18.

Eagles Too Good for Cowboys

In the NFL this weekend, Philadelphia Eagles and Dallas Cowboys meet in one of the standout games. Eagles, the current NFC East leaders, are gearing up for the playoffs, while Dallas are already preparing for next season after being eliminated from postseason contention.   

After suffering a rare defeat last time out, Philadelphia will be eager to return to winning ways in front of their own fans this weekend. The loss at Washington Commanders was only their third reverse in the regular season. The Eagles should come out on top in this one, and you can get 2.20 for the hosts to win -9.5.

Victory for Cavaliers in Colorado

Denver Nuggets and Cleveland Cavaliers square off in NBA action this weekend at Ball Arena in Colorado. Cavaliers have been the real deal in America’s top tier this season, and Kenny Atkinson’s side are gunning for a sixth straight victory.

After an impressive 26 wins, Cleveland are top of the Eastern Conference, while Nuggets sit fifth in the West. Denver are not an easy team to beat at home, but Cavaliers will fancy their chances of racking up another NBA victory. The away side are priced at 1.65 to leave Colorado with the win.
