"France find themselves in the unfamiliar position of being bottom of their group. The Nations League holders have failed to win any of their games (D2 L1) and need to start clocking up victories quickly, if they are to stand any chance of retaining their crown."

Back France double chance against Croatia and both teams to score at 2.0521/20

ATP Queen's Tips: Quick conditions should favour Dimitrov over Norrie

Grigor Dimitrov v Cameron Norrie, 16:00

The ATP Tour moves on to London and Germany in week 24 and Sean Calvert is back to preview the action in Halle and at Queen's Club...

Sean says: "If Grigor Dimitrov has one of his better days I could see him beating Cam Norrie on grass.

"Norrie made the final here a year ago, but it was a very kind draw up until the latter stages, and if Dimi is ever going to beat the steady game of Norrie it's surely on grass on the quickest surface of the year.

"Norrie's been able to wait for the errors against Dimitrov on slow hard courts in their two prior career clashes (Indian Wells and Miami) but grass is far more suitable for Dimitrov and it's the Bulgarian with the better data on this surface.

"Grass is far more suitable for Dimitrov and it's the Bulgarian with the better data on this surface."

Sean's bet: Back Dimitrov to beat Norrie @ 2.186/5

Today's Racing News: Cox's patience ready to be Applauded at Nottingham

Nottingham, 17:50

Today's racing comes from Lingfield, Carlisle, Nottingham, Kilbeggan and Windsor. On hand with all your daily racing stats, info and betting news is Daryl Carter who recommends a bet at Nottingham...

Daryl says: "A slight ease in grade in the 17:50 at Nottingham for Applaud Now 5.59/2 could just be the ticket to see him finally shed his Maiden tag.

"He took a good step in the right direction when dropped back to six furlongs at Windsor last time and pulled clear with a fellow improver despite being keen in the early part of the race. He had been too free to see out seven furlongs previously but shaped with promise and surely has a future over this distance after showing a bright turn of foot 21 days ago.

"A sound surface and this six-furlong trip could prove to be the ideal combination to see him get off the mark."

Daryl's bet: Back Applaud Now in the 17:50 at Nottingham @ 5.59/2

Nations League Bet Builder Tips: Back reliable bet on Israel

Dan Fitch is expecting Israel to produce another entertaining spectacle against Iceland, as he creates Bet Builders for Monday's Nations League ties. Here are a couple to get you started...

Iceland v Israel, 19:45

Dan says: "With Russia having been automatically relegated from Group B2, there is an opportunity for one of these two teams and Albania, to win promotion to the top flight. So far it's Israel who are winning that race, after their 2-1 win away in Albania on Friday, saw them move two points clear at the top of the group.

"The reverse fixture ended 2-2, continuing a trend of entertaining games involving Israel. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals has landed in nine of their last ten games and is available at the surprisingly generous price of 2.35/4."

Dan's Bet Builder: Back both Iceland and Israel to score and over 2.5 goals @ 2.35/4

France v Croatia, 19:45

Dan says: "France find themselves in the unfamiliar position of being bottom of their group. The Nations League holders have failed to win any of their games (D2 L1) and need to start clocking up victories quickly, if they are to stand any chance of retaining their crown.

"Since losing 3-0 to Austria in their first game, Croatia have bounced back with a 1-1 home draw with France and that victory in Denmark. France double chance and both teams to score, is priced at 2.0521/20."

Dan's Bet Builder: Back France double chance against Croatia and both teams to score at 2.0521/20

Football Bet of the Day: BTTS in Brazil

Botafogo v Avai, 23:00

Late tonight for UK punters, there could be goals as Avai travel to Botafogo in Brazilian Serie A tonight.

Tobias Gourlay says: "We're starting the new week in South America, where Botafogo are hosting Avai in the Brazilian Serie A tonight. Both teams were promoted into the top flight for this campaign and we're hoping to catch a more even contest.

"Sixteenth-placed Botafogo (W3-D3-L4) have a losing record on home turf this season (W1-D1-L2) but the key thing for us is that both teams have scored in all four of those matches.

"Fellow new boys Avai won three of their first five Serie A games, but are now five matches without a positive result. Home and away, though, BTTS has landed in six straight - and that's our odds-against bet on this one."
