We’ve revealed the players who have enjoyed the most success in the ATP Masters events and who could dominate them in the years ahead. Each of the nine tournaments in this series offers a tantalising 1000 ATP Tour ranking points to the winner.
Everton have quietly made a fine start to the new Premier League season and will be confident of seeing off Burnley at Goodison Park. The Clarets took four points off the Toffees last term but have been slower to find top gear after another summer of transfer inactivity.
Eight months after their Super Bowl demolition of Kansas City, Tampa Bay start out again at Raymond James Stadium by hosting Dallas. The Buccaneers have managed to bring back all 22 starters from that glorious night and look well set to hit the ground running this term.
Responsible sports betting leader bwin has teamed up with UEFA to sponsor both the Europa League and the newly-formed Europa Conference League. A three-year-deal to become the official betting partner of these competitions will help the Entain-owned brand to promote football and trustworthy gambling around the world.
England have gone 17 games against Poland without defeat since a 1973 loss in World Cup qualifying, winning 11 of those subsequent meetings. However, matches between these teams are traditionally competitive, including March’s 2-1 Wembley victory for the Three Lions.
Scotland have already drawn once with Austria during World Cup qualifying and we’re backing these teams to share the spoils again. Denmark are currently running away with Group F but this duo will be hoping to challenge current second Israel for the runners-up spot.
Ireland’s World Cup qualification hopes look in tatters and they have never beaten Group A leaders Serbia in six meetings. However, we still believe the men in green have been playing better than their bare results suggest and do have a big performance in them.
Netherlands will seek to avenge a 4-2 loss in Turkey at the start of their World Cup qualifying campaign and have fared much better since. Louis van Gaal is a steadying influence on this talented Dutch team, plus Virgil van Dijk’s return from injury is a major boost.
One of the highest accolades in American sports is to be named the league’s Most Valuable Player. We’ve analysed every MVP award for the four leading sports to work out what the winners have had in common.
It is second in Group G versus fourth as only one point separates the top quartet in the most competitive pool of the European section of World Cup qualifying. Netherlands are the favourites for this clash as Louis Van Gaal begins his third spell in charge.
With deadline day fast approaching, we’re tracking the latest Premier League transfer news to see whether any big late deals will take place. Bwin is offering odds on several players linked with a move this summer finally switching clubs before the window shuts.
Burnley and Leeds both line up at Turf Moor in search of a first Premier League victory following a testing start to the season. United at least have the luxury of a point on the board and Marcelo Bielsa’s side are rated the most likely winners.
Tottenham received a huge boost when Harry Kane revealed he will be staying put and they can celebrate by seeing off Watford. Nuno Espirito Santo has started out with a couple of hard-fought 1-0 Premier League wins but may see this as a chance to open up more.
Norwich enjoyed a welcome boost when hitting Bournemouth for six in the EFL Cup and are fancied to be competitive against Leicester. The Canaries had to endure a tough return to the Premier League when beaten by Liverpool and Manchester City but heads haven’t dropped.
