A-League Round 4 Preview

It’s Kiwi Derby time here and boy am I looking forward to it! A sold out Auckland supporters zone at Sky Stadium and some lovely weather on the way should make for a great game of football. Four weeks in and both Kiwi teams are in the top four to add even more spice to the derby. Derbies seem to be in the air because we’re heading to the Melbourne Derby for our best bet of the week, too. Let’s get into it! Wellington Pheonix vs Auckland FC Saturday, 7:00pm | Sky Stadium, Wellington Both Teams to Score (Super Boost)…

Premier League Matchweek 10 Previews

• Archie Wilson
In all honesty, the 2025/26 Premier League season has been turned upside down through nine weeks of action, and for any neutral fan, it has been a great start to the season. We’ve had upsets galore, with preseason powerhouses Liverpool, Chelsea, and Man City being toppled on more than one occasion. To make things even more interesting, some of the usual mid-table teams have found themselves mixing it with the big dogs. This has caused it to be a tough early season to navigate, especially when it comes to tipping each game. Regardless, we have a job to do here…

Two for three last week and one leg away from cashing the four leg multi, too. The Nix ruined a clean sweep with that last-minute winner, but hey, we’re happy to see the Nix win. Both the Nix and Auckland FC got wins at home and find themselves in the top four after two rounds… On to round three! Auckland FC vs Adelaide United Saturday, 5:00pm | Go Media Stadium, Auckland Under 2.5 Total Goals | $2.20 With a win in front of The Port and the rest of their home fans, Auckland FC got their season underway.

Round 1 of the A-League season is in the books, and for the first time ever, more than two teams can say they’re above Auckland FC on the ladder. Including the Wellington Phoenix… Both sides played out draws in their opening fixtures, both away from home too. Adelaide United, Brisbane Roar and Central Coast Mariners each had wins. Let’s get stuck into the match previews that see both the Nix and AFC back at home this weekend. Auckland FC vs Western Sydney Wanderers Saturday, 5:00pm | Go Media Stadium, Auckland Under 2.5 Total Goals | $2.15 Neither team was able…

Another international break has been and gone, and now we get one month of uninterrupted football. Arsenal are atop of the league with 16 points, Liverpool on 15 and Spurs and Bournemouth tied on 14. After a week off, I’m ready to go again, so let’s get into my previews for this weekend’s games. Nottingham Forest vs Chelsea 12:30am, Sunday 19 October | City Ground Chelsea to Win @ $1.91 This weekend could bring Ange Postecoglou’s stint as Nottingham’s manager one step closer to its end. Winless in his first seven games in charge across all competitions, the pressure continues…

A-League Round 1 Preview

The 2025/26 A-League season is back, and this year I’m going to focus on both the Kiwi teams and their games each week, as well as fire off a best bet for the weekend and a four leg multi. Auckland FC have some new faces and will be hoping to go one better than last year. The Minor Premiers from last year fell agonizingly short of the final, losing to the team that they’ll open their new campaign against. The Wellington Phoenix travel away for their first game too, and they need to get off to a good start to…

Another week has come and gone, which means it’s time for a bit of revision as we look back on some of the most special moments from the sporting calendar. We’re spoilt for choice when it comes to selecting the best moments of the week, but as we know, we have to narrow it down to three. So, with that said, let’s crack on and see if you agree with my selections for the best sporting moments. Chelsea Stun Liverpool At The Death The headliner of the Premier League weekend saw Arne Slott and his title-favourite Liverpool side travel to…
