The LFW pundits are back to look ahead to this weekend's fixture with Coventry City and scout around for value elsewhere in the weekend markets.

Nothing last week for Lewis so a £155.36 deficit remains. Brian lost £40 so is now in profit by just £38.05.

With Stewart staying on the bench last week (I wish I had stayed in the pub) I got a £10 back on my first goal scorer selection. These are important weeks for us not just because we need to sustain our promotion push but because I work in an office with a Coventry, Middlesborough and Watford fan so wins in all three games are vital if I am to hold my head up high in the Milton Keynes area. The Sky Blue fan who has been maintaining all season that they are rubbish thinks we will wallop then and although I am not that confident I think a home win is on the cards and my cash is on Buzsaky to get the first goal although I was tempted to go for Clinton Morrison as he always scores against us.

I don’t normally back singles in football but Swansea go to Newcastle tomorrow and I can see them coming away with all three points. The Geordies maybe top of the league but I don’t think they are that good a side and the Swans are value at 4/1.

The Hennessey is run at Newbury tomorrow and sees the return of Denman who is a beast of an animal but is probably carrying too much weight so I will go for the Queens horse Barber Shop to grab the spoils.

Good Luck

Rangers face Coventry this weekend; a stone-cold banker on paper, but all was not well with Rangers last weekend and this game could give a few punters an unexpected looser on their coupon. I for one will not be including a home win on mine – actually I never include QPR so take no notice of me.

Coventry are bottom of the form table, but usually do pretty well at Loftus Road. Stay clear of the match result, anything can happen with this one. First goal scorer is a market I will have a stab at this weekend. Centre backs are my usual weapon of choice and it will be no different this weekend. Gorkks and Connolly both to score anytime at decent looking prices, especially the big Lativian.

If there was ever a day to slump in front the TV, preferably hungover; and laze the day away, Sunday is it. Football fans are in for a treat which I dare say it will put the normal excitement of the Sunday Roast into the shadows. Three derbies, all of them first class, first up Merseyside, then London and El Classico for dessert. All three of them look very close to call apart from maybe a home win for Barcelona. So a cheeky draw trixie is in order for the three games, with a 3-1 and 2-1 win for the European champions to back up my claims.

The national hunt season really gets going this weekend; after Kauto Star returning last week, his nemesis Denman (4/1 Skybet) lines up in the Hennessy Gold Cup Handicap. He has it all to do on his first start of the year as he lines up with top-weight and will need to be at the top of his game to win. He is easy to oppose, Nenuphar Collonges and State of Play can provide the value.

Also the Fighting Fifth Hurdle at Newcastle provides top class racing action. The two market leaders Solwhit and Binoclar are worthy favorites but a horse that provides the interest for me, is Sublimity. According to connections he is really well and wouldn’t be too far from his best, and also provides a good each way claim.

For the weekend:
£15 on Gorkks to score anytime – 8/1 (William Hill)
£10 on Connolly to score anytime – 10/1 (Paddypower)

Everton vs Liverpool – Draw – 5/2 (Victor Chandler)
Chelsea vs Arsenal – Draw – 12/5 (Boylesports)
Barcelona vs Real Madrid – Draw – 14/5 (VictorChandler)
£4 (3 doubles and a treble) Trixie

Barcelona to win 3-1 or 4-1 – 14/1 and 33/1 (Skybet)
£2 x 2 Singles

Nenuphar Collonges (Hennessy Gold Cup) – 19/1 (BetChronicle)
Sublimity (Fighting Fifth Hurdle) – 12/1 VictorChandler
£2.50 E.W Double
