"Walsall flirted with the play-offs last season and remain a side with potential, as they showed in holding Bristol City to a draw and beating Preston 3-1 earlier in the campaign."
Andrew Hughes thinks Walsall will return from Nottingham with all three points this weekend and help to land another cross-sport multiple in the process.
Bet 1: Back Walsall to beat Notts County at 2.68/5
After keeping Notts County up in his first season at the club, Shaun Derry has been working wonders on the Trent in recent weeks. The Magpies are flying after five consecutive victories and are up to fourth in League One.
But that run will come to an end on Saturday against Walsall. Dean Smith's side have often lacked a striker to turn their possession into goals, but the return of Tom Bradshaw last weekend helped them to a hard-fought win over Chesterfield and they look a much more dangerous team with the former Shrewsbury striker on the pitch.
Walsall flirted with the play-offs last season and remain a side with potential, as they showed in holding Bristol City to a draw and beating Preston 3-1 earlier in the campaign. It's also worth noting that County's five recent wins all came against teams in the bottom half. Back the Saddlers to upset the odds in Nottingham.
Bet 2: Back Munster to beat Cardiff at 1.538/15
Cardiff should go into this game with some confidence after recording back to back victories over Grenoble and Rovigo in the European Challenge Cup, but I expect normal service to resume when they return to Pro12 action on Saturday.
The Blues have won just one of their six games so far, against Zebre in their opening match, and are being kept off the bottom of the table by the two Italian teams.
A 24-24 draw with Connacht in Round 5 offered some encouragement to Blues fans, but I can't see them having anything to celebrate this weekend. Munster have only lost one of their last seven in all competitions and haven't lost to Cardiff since 2009. Back the Irish side to record their fourth away win in succession.
Bet 3: Back Milos Raonic to beat Tomas Berdych at 1.834/5
Saturday's ATP Paris Masters semi-final between Tomas Berdych and Milos Raonic should be a gripping encounter between two of the world's top ten, but there is more at stake for one of them then just a place in the final.
Whilst Berdych's win over Kevin Anderson in the quarter-final earned him a spot at the ATP World Tour Finals, Raonic travelled to Paris knowing that he needed to win the tournament to qualify for London.
But the young Canadian seems to be thriving on the pressure, beating Roger Federer for the first time in his career in the quarter-finals and up against an opponent he has beaten twice in three meetings, he can reach the final.
