KEVIN PAINTER v RAYMOND VAN BARNEVELD Kevin Painter has been slowly sliding down the table in recent weeks and he now sits in 7th place, only ahead of 8th placed Hamilton on legs won against the throw. Despite this if, as is the tightness of this league, the Artist could move back into the playoff places if he can pick up his first victory since week 5. Barney will be determined to get back to winning ways after a disappointing 8-2 defeat against Adrian Lewis last week. Having seemingly returned to form this season, shooting up to 2nd in the league at one point, the Dutchman will be hoping last week's heavy defeat is a mere blip as he now looks to return to a place in the top two tonight. The pair last met in Glasgow where Painter's poor run began as van Barneveld ran out an 8-5 winner. Place your bet right now at HPbet.com

Season 5 of the Indian Premier League will kick off on Wednesday night as two of the title favourites in Chennai Super Kings and Mumbai Indians will be pitted against each other in what promises to be a mouth watering contest at the MA Chidambaram stadium in Chennai. The Mumbai Indians have further strengthened their resources in this year's player auction to continue their fight for the elusive IPL title while Chennai chose to put all their money on Indian all-rounder Ravindra Jadeja in the auction in a move that could go either way keeping in view the young man's iffy form of late. This game promises to be a terrific battle of skill between probably two of the strongest units in this year's IPL. Chennai: The super kings, who will be lead by captain cool MS Dhoni will have to go into this fixture as slender favourites with the game being played at their home venue in Chennai. Their batting looks solid with several established local players in the form of Murali Vijay, Suresh Raina, Subramaniam Badrinath and MS Dhoni ready to hold fort for the hosts. They will in all likelihood miss the ever reliable Mike Hussey who will be out on international duty and hence the onus will be heavily on the Indian contingent to rally the batting set up. With the West Indies, Australia, England and Sri Lankan teams on international duty Chennai's foreign contingent looks a bit thinner than normal but the likes of Albie Morkel and Doug Bollinger look set to resume duties for the Franchisees. The spin department will be spearheaded by Ravi Ashwin, who will be supported by fellow India team mate Ravindra Jadeja. One between Sudeep Tyagi and Yo Mahesh could get the third seamer slot for this fixture behind the foreign pros. Mumbai: The Mumbai Indians batting will be as strong as ever despite the withdrawal of hard hitting Andrew Symonds as Indian batsmen Sachin Tendulkar and Rohit Sharma look all set to shoulder responsibility. They will be ably supported by the impressive Ambati Rayudu and the ever willing Dinesh Karthik on the batting front. Kieron Pollard's impressive run in LOI's this season could earn him a test spot failing which he will return to power this line up down the order. James Franklin could retain his place that he secured last season ahead of the new acquisition Herschelle Gibbs at the start of this season. Mumbai's bowling looks all the more penetrative now with the addition some useful bowlers. Lasith Malinga will lead the pack along with experienced spinner Harbhajan Singh, who will have a point to prove in the fixture, regarding his omission from the national set up. They will be supported by national team outcasts, Munaf Patel, Pragyan Ojha and RP Singh, who will want to regain their places in the Indian team come the home season following this tournament. Their prized new addition Mitchell Johnson will also bolster the side immensely with his raw pace and ability to use the long handle in the death overs. Place your bet at HPbet right now

AC Milan travel to Catalunya on Tuesday night as they aim to overturn the defending Champions Barcelona in the UEFA Champions League quarter-final. The tie is on a knife-edge after the two giants drew 0-0 in the 1st leg at the San Siro last week as Barca failed to score in a Champions League game for the first time in 30 matches. But Pep Guardiola's men are a formidable outfit in their own backyard and the wide pitch at the Nou Camp will be tailored to their passing game unlike the horrendous pitch that welcomed them at the San Siro. Barca followed up the 1st leg draw with a 2-0 victory over Athletic Bilbao while Milan were held 1-1 at Catania. Barcelona lionel_messi_2The Catalan giants were well below their usual best in the 1st leg as they lacked the tempo to break down a stubborn Italian defence. In fact, Milan created the better opportunities and but for some poor finishing from the Italians Barca could have found themselves trailing in this tie. Their response to that poor performance was a professional 2-0 win at home against Bilbao as they kept in touch with Real Madrid at the top. They are still six points behind Jose Mourinho's men, but with El Clasico yet to be played they still have an outside chance of edging Madrid to the title. Their problems this season have been in defence as Gerald Pique has been uncharacteristically error-prone while the left-back situation has also been a destabilizing factor. But their forwards have more than made up for that as Barca's goal tally in La Liga stands at 100 while their tally in Europe is 30 from 9 games. Messi's incredible return of 56 goals is miles ahead of the others, with the next three in line, Xavi, Cesc Fabregas and Alexis Sanchez contributing 40 goals. AC Milan Massimiliano Allegri's plan to stifle Barcelona worked to perfection as they by-and-large kept them at bay in the 1st leg. Alessandro Nesta's presence in the centre of defence was vital to the result as the veteran Italian rolled back the years with a classic performance. Milan will need to repeat those defensive heroics on Tuesday night if they are to progress into the semi-finals. They will also need a marked improvement in finishing as an away goal would put the tie firmly in their hands. Zlatan Ibrahimovic & co were guilty of missing gilt-edged chances, especially in the 1st half and they cannot afford to be that generous at the Nou Camp. They are bound to be starved of the ball for long periods and the onus will be on the front three of Ibrahimovic Robinho and Kevin-Prince Boateng to make the best of their possession. Back in the Serie A, Milan threw away a 1-0 lead at Catania to eventually draw 1-1 as their four-match winning run in the league came to an end. They are five points ahead of Juventus in 2nd, but the Old Lady could reduce it to two with a victory tonight. They are still unbeaten in the last nine games and one feels that they will need more goals from the support cast if they are fend off Juve for the title. Ibrahimovic accounts for more than one-third of their league goals, with Nocerino coming 2nd with nine goals. Head-to-Head: 28th Mar, 2012: Milan 0-0 Barcelona 23rd Nov, 2012: Milan 2-3 Barcelona Place your bet at HPbet right now

Aston vs Villa - Chelsea - Libertyreseve deposit available HPbet.Com There is plenty on the line for both sides when Aston Villa host Chelsea in the English Premier League on Saturday. The arrival of Roberto Di Matteo as manager after Andre Villas-Boas' sacking saw an upswing in Chelsea's form, but a loss to Manchester City and a draw at home against Tottenham has seen the gap between them and fourth-placed Arsenal widen to five points. The Blues won the first leg of their Champions League quarter-final against Benfica thanks to a lone goal from Salomon Kalou in Portugal on Tuesday, but they may not be playing in Europe's top club competition next season if they cannot overtake Arsenal. Di Matteo clearly had that in mind when choosing his team to face Benfica, leaving Didier Drogba, Frank Lampard, Michael Essien and Gary Cahill on the bench to ensure they would be fit to face Villa. Another boost for Chelsea is the return to fitness of defender Branislav Ivanovic, who had been out for two weeks with a thigh strain. The Serbian was part of the squad which travelled to Benfica, and although he played no part in the match, a return against Villa on Saturday could be on the cards. For Villa, Saturday's match is about putting more space between them and the relegation zone. Although they sit eight points clear of 18th-placed QPR, manager Alex McLeish knows all too well the danger of being anywhere near the drop zone at this stage of the season, having watched his Birmingham side go down last term. Villa suffered another setback with a 3-0 loss away to Arsenal last week, and with tough fixtures against Liverpool, Manchester United and Tottenham to come in the run home, their survival is no sure thing. "Hopefully everyone will be sharp for the Chelsea game at the weekend," said Aston Villa midfielder Eric Lichaj. "Football is all about rising to the occasion and we need to win some games. Hopefully everyone will step up to the plate, be a team and win that game." Injuries have not helped Aston Villa's cause, with star striker Darren Bent out for the rest of the season after having surgery on his injured ankle earlier this month. Alan Hutton is also out indefinitely, while a knee injury will keep Charles N'Zogbia on the sideline for at least another week. Place your bet right now at HPbet.Com

West Indies have released the out-of-form Darren Bravo from the squad for Friday's second Twenty20 in Barbados and called in the Jamaica batsman Danza Hyatt. Bravo has been sent back to domestic cricket in the hope that he can find some form ahead of the three-Test series, and he will play for Trinidad & Tobago this weekend in the Regional Four-Day semi-final. The team, led by M.S. Dhoni, would have the full complement of first choice T-20 players barring the swashbuckling opener Virender Sehwag and pacer Zaheer Khan, who are out with injury. The match, to be played at Wanderers Stadium on March 30 in Johannesburg, is to commemorate 150 years of Indian settlement in South Africa and is to be an annual fixture. Dhoni and his teammates attended a felicitation function of retired Indian batsman Rahul Dravid at a hotel on Tuesday evening before proceeding to South Africa. ust after returning from South Africa, the Indian players would start playing in the Indian Premier League (IPL), commencing in Chennai on April 4 Place your bet right now

Chelsea have not lost at home to Tottenham in the Premier League era, the last reverse coming in 1990, but victory has never been more important as they try and close a five-point gap on their London rivals who occupy fourth place. Defeat, Di Matteo said, would make it difficult for Chelsea to finish in the top four although there is room for optimism with skipper John Terry set to return after missing the midweek defeat against title-chasing Manchester City.
