Diamond bet

Perry to be late for training: 8/11. 

Hardy says: "8/11 is a skinny price for this one, but it's the closest thing to printing money. HardyBet's standout price should be snapped up right now; Perry is consistently late for any event that has ever been staged in CTV history. There is no reason to suggest that tomorrow's first training session will be any different. The 4/1 about him missing training completely is quite tempting, but take the safe option of him being late. You can also bet on his excuses, where the overwhelming favourite is "I just stayed in bed" at 1/3.

Donut bet

Tom Hope to start the first game: 7/1

Hardy says: "A ridiculous price for a man who is already questioning his commitment to the squad. It would be surprising if he was even included in Pearce's plans for the opener. Recent comments from the once great striker have included: "I might make one in three matches" and "I'm rather concerned about the prospect of playing while wearing glasses... will I get hurt?". Anyone taking this price should be shot.
