Gunners to Take the Points in Brentford

Mikel Arteta takes his Arsenal troops to the Brentford Community Stadium on New Year’s Day to play Thomas Frank’s Brentford. The Bees are tough to beat at home, but the in-form Gunners will fancy their chances.

The first Premier League match of 2025 promises to be a cracker, as both Brentford and Arsenal push for points. The Bees have lost just one home match all season, while the Gunners are back in tip-top shape. We fancy the away side to edge it, and the Arsenal win is available at 1.44.

Knicks to Heap More Misery on Wizards

In the NBA in midweek, Washington Wizards welcome New York Knicks to Capital One Arena. Knicks have been in sensational form of late, winning seven in a row. Tom Thibodeau’s boys will be looking for another victory in the capital.

New York are up to third in the Eastern Conference after an excellent run of form. As for Wizards, they are rock bottom with just five wins to their name. We are backing a comfortable away win here, and 1.50 for New York to win -7.5 has caught the eye.

Littler to Ease into Last Eight at Ally Pally

Luke Littler is back in 2025 World Darts Championship action on Monday, taking on Ryan Joyce in the fourth round. The 17-year-old is looking to book his spot in the last eight of the tournament.

Littler battled hard to beat Ian White by four legs to one at the weekend. Joyce edged a thriller against Ryan Searle, but “The Nuke” should be too hot to handle for the 39-year-old. We are backing Littler to win -2.5 at 1.57.
