7pm: Cobh Ramblers v Bray Wanderers – Bray to Win
Neither of these are going particularly well so far this season, sitting in 7th and 8th respectively, with only a point separating the sides. Cobh got their first win last week against Wexford while Bray suffered a 2-1 defeat to Athlone, who currently sit top of the table, so both sides will be desperate for a much-needed victory.
Four of the last five times these sides have met Bray have managed to come out on top so they will be hoping to do so again. I fancy Bray to Win. For added value you could add BTTS to the Bray Win.

7.45pm: Sassuolo v Sampdoria – Both Teams to Score
Sassuolo’s hopes of European football looked to have gone after a poor start to 2021, but they aren’t quite out of the race just yet and it’s looking like a strong finish to the season could be on the cards. Following a recent turnaround in fortunes, the dream is alive once more after sensationally beating AC Milan 2-1 in the week.
It was their fifth straight match to feature a 1-0 half time scoreline and their second in a row to see them win after trailing at the break. The hosts are unbeaten in their last five home matches, with each of their last nine league outings here witnessing both teams getting on the scoresheet.
Saturday 7.45pm: Sassuolo v Sampdoria
Premier Sports 2 and LiveScore App
Curiously, the team scoring first failed to win in six of the last seven with Sassuolo trailing 1-0 at half time in four of those seven. Sampdoria come into this one after claiming back-to-back victories for the second time in 2021.
Sassuolo’s Giacomo Raspadori scored twice in the second half against Milan, while Samp’s veteran talisman Fabio Quagliarella has scored three goals in his last five appearances so both men will be hoping to get on the score sheet again and I’m backing Both Teams to Score here.
8pm: Sheffield United v Brighton – Brighton Win & Under 2.5 Goals
Sheffield United’s 1-0 defeat to Wolves last weekend finally confirmed their relegation and return to the Championship, while Brighton have drawn their last two games and have only one win in their last nine matches. The last two times these sides met it finished 1-1 on both occasions, but I expect Brighton to have the edge this time around.
Saturday 8pm: Sheffield United v Brighton
Sky Sports Main Event and Sky Sports Premier League
Sheffield United have lost nine of their last ten league assignments, failing to score in eight of those defeats, so I predict Brighton to edge the Blades out at Bramall Lane with Under 2.5 Goals in the game.
8pm: Real Madrid v Real Betis – Karim Benzema to Score First
Real Madrid are hitting form at the right time, winning four of their last five matches, and, with only three points between them and league leaders Atletico Madrid, they will be hoping to close the gap before the end of the season.
Saturday 8pm: Real Madrid v Real Betis
LaLigaTV
Real Betis remain top-six hopefuls, but their form against top sides has been quite poor with only one win from 11 matches with clubs who are 7th or above in the league. Kairm Benzema has scored the first goal in four of their last six home matches so he will be hoping to get on the score sheet and should be an easy victory for Madrid with Benzema scoring first.
