Sports Tips – Tuesday, May 29

Best Bets
Vegas Golden Knights v Washington Capitals
Knights to win ($2.03)

Vegas will be looking to cap off a successful season when they enter game one of their Stanley Cup Finals series against the Capitals. The Knights continue to break records in their first season in the NHL and the expansion side will be looking to edge the Capitals in a crucial opening game. The visiting teams have dominated the postseason action and the Knights will be looking to get off on the right foot in front of their fans.

Kent v Somerset
Somerset to win ($1.82)

The action in the Royal London One-Day Cup continues with Kent taking on Somerset in what looms as a high scoring affair. England international Craig Overton will be hoping to impress with a Test series against India around the corner for national side. Somerset have a strong record against Kent and I’m backing them to kick the win in a high scoring encounter.

 

Best Outsider
Houston Rockets v Golden State Warriors
Rockets to win ($3.15)

The Rockets will be looking to the Cavs for inspiration as they attempt to bounce back from a loss in game six and seal a place in the NBA Finals. Houston will be desperate to have Chris Paul on court against a line-up that is one of the best offensive combinations in the league. Klay Thompson was back to his best in game six and Steph Curry and Kevin Durant have had their moments for the Warriors this series. With home court advantage on their side I’m backing James Harden to lead the Rockets to an upset victory at the Toyota Centre.

 

 

Best Three-Leg Multi
Coventry, Stosur, Zverev
Combined Odds @ $4.30

Coventry will be hunting for promotion when they take on Exeter in the League Two clash in London. Coventry made the final off the back of a 4-1 win over Notts County and they’ll be spurred on by a massive home crowd that will be looking for their side to win promotion. Alexander Zverev will be on court in the first round of the French Open. The Italian Open finalist will take on Ricardas Berankis and Aussie Sam Stosur will also be making her first appearance at Rolland Garros. I’m backing both Zverev and Stosur to progress into the second round.
