Weekend's best bets: Ten homes: Crystal Palace, Everton, Southampton, Motherwell, Rangers, Chesterfield, Dagenham & Redbridge, Eastleigh, Notts County, Solihull.
Pick of the draws: Leeds beat Tottenham convincingly at Elland Road last Saturday and look on course for a point at Burnley, who also had a good result, winning 2-0 at Fulham to send the London club down to the Championship. Tottenham's chances of qualifying for next season's Champions League have almost vanished. As a result, they are by no means certain to defeat Wolves, who fought back from a goal behind to overcome Brighton at Molineux last Sunday. St Mirren and Dundee United, who play each other in the Scottish Premiership, may be unable to shake off the disappointment of losing the Scottish Cup semi-finals and a stalemate is predicted. Against expectations, Villarreal have reached the Europa League final but they will be tested against Sevilla, who are two places higher at fourth in the Spanish League. Inter Milan, the Italian League champions, won't have things all their own way at Juventus, who lie fifth.
Away days: Manchester City were confirmed as Premier League champions in midweek and will surely celebrate the achievement by taking three points at Newcastle. Liverpool seem to have their mojo back and will be hot favourites at relegated West Brom on Sunday. Celtic were among the goals in the Scottish Premiership in midweek, beating St Johnstone 4-0 at home, and I can see them outscoring Hibernian on Saturday. Hartlepool are in National League promotion contention and worth backing at Aldershot. The same can be said for Wrexham, who travel to play Boreham Wood, and it's hard to see leaders Sutton slipping up at Maidenhead.
Homes sweet homes: Although Crystal Palace are unreliable at Selhurst Park, they may be worth a wager against Aston Villa, who seem to be ending the season with a whimper. Dagenham & Redbridge are bang in form in the National League and worth a shout against higher-placed Halifax. Notts County have clicked at just the right time to surge into the play-off positions and are tipped to get the better of Bromley.
