20:00 Nottm Forest v Fenerbahce

Fenerbahce

50 WIN

@4.50

Win

175

Nottingham Forest hold a 3-0 advantage from the first leg and will potentially sit back here and protect that lead. Fenerbahçe will play with nothing to lose, and that makes them good value here.

20:00 VfB Stuttgart v Celtic

Celtic

50 WIN

@6.50

Win

275

Celtic played well against Stuttgart, who were just more clinical on the day. Although away from home, I can see Celtic potentially winning this, with their opponents potentially looking to hold on to their two-goal advantage.

Celtic & Yes (Result + BTTS)

-50

Stuttgart were much more clinical in the last leg and, with home advantage, should score again here to finish off the tie. Celtic will be trying to recoup the deficit, so I'd expect them to win overall.

Gateshead have not kept a home clean sheet since November last year, but have won their last two matches despite conceding in both.

This fixture has seen both sides score the last four times. Sheffield United have scored and conceded in their last six home matches.

17:45 Atalanta v Borussia Dortmund

Atalanta

60 WIN

@2.15

Atalanta will be a tougher side to beat at home, and they will be all out here as they look to recover from a 2-0 first-leg defeat to their opponents.

Decent 2nd over the four mile trip at Kelso back in December in a group three affair, and did have a win this time last year at Ayr over the three mile trip on similar very soft ground. Drops back down in grade here and will very much appreciate the mud again.

Won a good stamina affair in field of three at Doncaster back in December after returning from a 251-day break. Best run prior to that since debut was a 2nd at Hereford where defeat was to Le Soleil Reve by two lengths, but is on far better terms this time

Won by eleven lengths on Ascot debut back in November, and didn't run too badly at Huntingdon last time out to take 2nd by same distance. Came up against a big odds-on favourite that time, but doesn't face anything on that calibre here.

Sole career win came at this ground, and that was on the back of two close 2nd place finishes at Wolverhampton around this time last year. 4th last time out, but was running for the first time after a 191-day break in class four company. Drops down a class here, and the gelding op should kick in for this.

Two career runs so far at Newcastle have resulted in a win and a 5th, but suffered severe traffic problems on that ocassion when looking to get well involved. 4th last time out at Southwell, but was returning from a 111-day break and hit traffic problems again. Drops a pound here, and has a great chance with a good clear run from a more favoured high draw.

Much better run last time out at the beginning of the month here when 4th of ten runners. Started improving towards the end of the race but ran out of track, so the step up in trip might do the trick here.

Top ten in both of the last two reboots, finishing on a score of eight under to take 10th and, more recently, 5th last year. Fourth last week in the AT&T Pebble Beach.

@23.00

-50

Fleetwood hit a 68 on the first day back in 2023, but has generally been a slow starter the past couple of years here, which has made the difference between winning and placing in the top ten. He made a decent start at the AT&T Pebble Beach Pro-Am last week, and started in the top five in both the Abu Dhabi and DP World Tour before Christmas, so I think he could here.

Finally placed on her 4th run since debut when taking 4th at Chepstow towards the back end of January. Both Thorgath and Don't Tell Rosie had similar runs latest at Chepstow, with the latter finishing just ahead of our choice in their race together. RITB comes here on slightly better terms this time and wears cheek-pieces for the first time, which may enhance performance further.

Has not been out of the top four in the last five runs, with the field sizes all ten runners or larger. One of those was a convincing win here. The latest run was a 3rd here again after just a second run since returning from a 718-day break. Keeps a similar mark for this, but now runs for a new yard that carries good career form figures.

Won here around March last year for the previous yard, and comes here after finding a bit of form following a wind operation back in December. Came 2nd of twelve last time out at Kempton when losing to a horse that was just far better returning from a break, but did beat the favourite, who had a couple of wins under their belt. May do better for the second run since the op.
