Man City to Ease Woes with Three Boxing Day Points

Boxing Day in the Premier League begins with the Manchester City vs Everton matchup at the Etihad Stadium. Pep Guardiola’s men crashed to yet another defeat at the weekend, but the champions should see off the Toffees on home soil.

All eyes will be on Man City as they kick off a busy day in England’s top tier. Saturday’s loss at Villa Park was the club’s ninth reverse in 12 games. Everton are unbeaten in three, holding both Arsenal and Chelsea to goalless draws in the last two. However, we fancy Man City to win this one. The home victory and over 3.5 goals is available at 2.70.

Chiefs to Chalk Up Another NFL Win

Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs go head-to-head in Christmas Day NFL action at Acrisure Stadium. Chiefs are the form football side right now, and Andy Reid’s men are gunning for a sixth successive victory.

Pittsburgh are having a decent season, but Steelers head into this Christmas Day clash having suffered back-to-back defeats to Philadelphia Eagles and Baltimore Ravens. Kansas have lost just one regular-season game, and Reid’s boys should get the victory in Pennsylvania. Take a punt on Chiefs to win -2.5 at 1.67.

Celtics to Edge Christmas Day Clash in Boston

There are five Christmas Day matches in the NBA, including the Boston Celtics vs Philadelphia 76ers game at TD Garden. Will the hosts pick up a vital festive victory in front of their own fans?

After seeing his side lose their last one at home to Chicago Bulls, Joe Mazzulla will want a response from his players. The 76ers lost 126-99 at Cleveland Cavaliers in their last away game. We are picking a home win here at 1.25.

Van Gerwen Too Strong for Dolan

The 2025 World Darts Championship gets back underway with a bang on Friday. One of the standout third-round ties at Alexandra Palace is the Michael van Gerwen vs Brendan Dolan matchup.

Van Gerwen, a three-time Ally Pally winner, eased to a 3-0 victory over James Hurrell last Friday. Dolan also won 3-0 last time out, but Van Gerwen should be too hot to handle for the man from Northern Ireland. The Dutch ace is available at 3.50 to win -3.5.
