Punters will have no shortage of options when it comes to betting this weekend and while the Rugby World Cup Semi-Finals are the highlight, there is also English Premier League action and some top class horse racing.
RUGBY
The Rugby World Cup Semi-Finals played over Saturday and Sunday with England against New Zealand on Saturday. England are (+7.5) point underdogs and they do look that they have it all to do against this New Zealand side. We expect this to be a close encounter and our suggested bet is in the Winning Margin where we like New Zealand by under 12.5 points at 14/10.

Sunday’s match sees Wales against South Africa and Wales is certainly battling with injuries at the moment although South Africa are also without Kolbe. The current line is Wales (+8.5) and the bet we fancy here is South Africa to win by more than 12.5 points at 13/10.

FOOTBALL
The English Premier League is back after an International break and Manchester City are 1/10 to see off Aston Villa in Saturday’s early kick-off.
The pick of the weekend’s fixtures looks to be Liverpool at home to Tottenham with Liverpool 11/20 to get back on the winning trail after being held to a 1-1 draw at Manchester United. Tottenham had a good win in Europe in mid-week, but they are battling domestically and they are as big as 5/1 for the win with the draw at 69/20.

There are a number of PSL matches taking place this weekend and the pick amongst them must be Sundowns up against Kaizer Chiefs. Chiefs currently top the log on 19 points from 8 matches, 2 points ahead of Sundowns but Sundowns have a game in hand. Sundowns are 15/20 favourites with the draw at 23/10 and we do believe there is some value in Chiefs here at 17/4 and more conservative punters could take Kaizer Chiefs (+1) on the handicap at even money, meaning they can draw or win the match for the bet to arrive.

HORSE RACING
There are 3 meetings priced up for the weekend at the time of writing mainly the Greyville Polytrack on Friday night with an 8 race card off at 17:00 and finishing at 21:10. Our fancy here comes in Race 5 where we think La Duchesse makes a popular Pick Six banker at a current price of 15/20.

Saturday sees a double header with Turffontein getting going at 12:30 and the 9th and final race at 17:20 and it is certainly hard to look past 3/10 shot, Gin Fizz in the 5th Race run over 1450 meters. It is another Mike de Kock trained horse that we fancy with a bit of value in the 3rd Race, Horse No. 3 Mrs Simpson, currently priced at 9/1.

The real action this weekend takes place at Kenilworth on Saturday with a 9 race card starting at 12:50 scheduled to finish at 17:40. The highlights are without doubt the Cape Classic, Race 6 and the Western Cape Fillies Championship in Race 7.
In Race 6 we like the price of Macthief currently 9/1 a win and 19/10 for a Top 3 and in Race 7 Horse No. 3, Roll In The Hay at the current price of 5/1.
