Liverpool walked into Stoke on January 5 and walked away with a win in the first leg of the Capital One Cup Semi-Final. Over their last three Premier League matches, the Reds tied Arsenal, lost to Manchester United and beat Norwich in a nail-biter 4-5. Tonight they will be without some key defensive players and Stoke could take the opportunity to capitalize on potential holes in their defense. Nathaniel Clyne might be the biggest name to miss tonight’s match with a knee injury, and it is still unclear if he will play. Dejan Lovren is not at 100% and to make matters worse, Steven Caulker will not be in the lineup either. Manager Jurgen Klopp has been the center of criticism for the Reds’ inconsistent play since taking over just four months ago, but if he wins tonight, he will take them to the final of the Capital One Cup to face either Man. City or Everton. The odds are stacked against Stoke to pull out a win, as Liverpool’s history in the league cup is staggering. Liverpool have only missed making the final once in the last eight times that they were in the semi-finals with the lead after the first leg. The Reds have beaten Stoke five times, and drawn once in the last six matches they have faced each other in this competition. The most disheartening stat of all is that Stoke have not won at Anfield since 1959 in any competition with 31 losses altogether over those years. Capital One Wagering Bet365 will be offering live in play betting for any punters that wish to bet on the action as it happens. Liverpool are huge favorites at 1.75, while Stoke are far behind at 5.25. An interesting bet could be made for choosing a goal scorer with Jordon Ibe scoring in his last two Cup appearances. It will definitely be an incredible match and with pre-match and in play odds available, there is optimal chances to win lucrative cash too.
A humble librarian is currently celebrating the UK’s largest-ever mobile jackpot win. The Gala Bingo player needed only £4 to win a staggering €5.89 million while playing Jackpot Giant, a progressive slot from igaming developer Playtech. Now the player is figuring out just how to spend their life-changing windfall that is certain to make 2016 brighter. However, it would appear that the player is still contemplating their next step. Gala Bingo has revealed that the Glasgow resident went back to their librarian job the very next day. The player has chosen to remain anonymous, but the operator was able to unveil they had been a member for three years and that they won using a Samsung GalaxyS5. Playtech Progressive Jackpots Jackpot Giant is a progressive slot game from Playtech, a developer with a history of paying out record-breaking winnings. To date, the largest-ever progressive victory came when a player won €8.15 million on Playtech’s Beach Life slot 2012. But what sets Jackpot Giant apart is that this was the UK mobile record for a bingo site. Playtech progressive slots have a track record of paying out winnings. In fact, the developer’s 70-strong collection delivered an average of 695 wins a day during 2015. This led to Playtech COO Shimon Akad proclaim that the developer leads its competitors “when it comes to progressive games.” Jackpot Giant Slot Jackpot Giant is appealing for players because it features a friendly cartoon giant who adds great amusement to the game. One particular highlight is when the giant tosses a coin into a volcano, causing it to erupt with a jackpot of golden coins. Playtech has made the five-reel slot with 50 paylines and a rewarding bonus round to support the progressive jackpot. Landing a bonus symbol on the first and fifth reels will trigger the bonus game, where a cash reward can be chosen.
The vast collection of games at Rich Casino just got bigger with the help of two new slot machines. These are Pinocchio and Event Horizon, with both of them being developed by Betsoft Gaming and coming with some impressive graphics. Going on an Adventure with Pinocchio The wooden toy that comes to life in the story of Pinocchio is nicely represented in the slot machine with 3D graphics from Betsoft. The action first takes place in the shop of the master toy maker and it shows both him and Pinocchio alongside the five reels, cheering on for every win. However, the environment can change as players enjoy the game and collect the needed symbols to move on to the next worlds. A similar bonus mode is triggered when collecting five symbols of the real boy and thus turning Pinocchio into an actual boy. The mode will have better ways to win as the symbols in the game change as well. Fairy Awesome Respins help show off the fantastical theme even more as wishes are granted on non-winning spins to try again for free. Furthermore, there are wilds which trigger respins and they get more rewarding as the story advances. The Sky Is the Limit in Event Horizon As mentioned, the second new slot added to Rich Casino is Event Horizon. This game is very colorful and takes place in space, with a combination of classic fruit symbols, card values and BAR images on its five reels. 243 ways to win make sure that wins take place very often. On each spin, there is the chance for two or more reels to sync up and show identical symbols. This can happen with all the five reels and thus create some very big wins. The game also has wild symbols which will help create combinations for brightly colored wins.

Barcelona was successful in winning the first leg of the Copa del Rey Quarter Final last week at San Mames 1-2. If Barca win tonight it will be the sixth consecutive season that they have made the Semi-Finals. The win last week was a hard fought battle as they were without Luis Suarez (suspended) and without their star striker Lionel Messi (injury). Barcelona will be at full strength tonight with both Suarez and Messi back in the lineup and one must wonder if Bilbao have any chance of victory. The last time that Athletic visited Camp Nou, they were embarrassed 6-0 and suffered an early red card, which set the pace for the match. Manager Ernesto Valverde must be feeling the pressure for his squad to perform better, but Bilbao are severe underdogs and do not have much going for them. Barcelona Team News There are a few players out with winter flu on Barcelona's star studded roster. Sergio Busquets, Arda Turan and Andres Iniesta are all questionable for tonight, but with Neymar and Pique back from an injury and a suspension respectfully, Barcelona should have little to worry about. The Barca back line will most likely consist of Dani Alves, Pique, Marc Barta and Jeremy Mathieu, but their midfield is still no certain. Athletic Team News Athletic Bilbao have to deal with their own problems, even after a decisive victory against SD Eibar on Sunday. Led by goals from Aritz Aduriz (2), Aymeric Laporte, Sabin and an own goal by Mauro dos Santos, Athletic do have a talented side, but it's nothing compared to the talent at Barca. Copa del Rey Betting Markets Bet365 Sports is offering both pre-match and live in play betting for the Copa del Rey Quarter Final. The UK sportsbook is offering punters dozens of individual wagering props that has Barcelona ahead at 1.30, while Athletic trail at 9.50. A draw is also quite attractive at 5.50, but all fingers point to a big Barcelona win and my guess is at least three goals from the home side is to be expected.
Few tennis rivalries are as talked about as the Federer vs Djokovic rivalry. These two tennis superstars have met 44 times and amazingly each has won 22 times, splitting the honors right down the middle. Djokovic is currently ranked 1st in the ATP standings, while Federer is 3rd, just behind Andy Murray (facing Milos Raonic (13) in the other Semi-Final tomorrow at 8:30 GMT). Both men made it to the Semi-Finals winning their last eight matches in straight sets. Djokovic crushed Kei Nishikori in the Quarter Finals 6-3 6-2 6-4, while Federer beat Tomas Berdych 7-6 (7/4) 6-2 6-4. Although Federer and Djokovic have identical match-win records against one another, the Serb has been the better in the rivalry as of late. Djokovic has beaten Federer in their last three grand slam meetings, but the Swiss-star is playing with a new energy as of late and today will certainly be a match for the ages. "You have to be on the top of your game because he hasn't really dropped the level at all I think in the last seven, eight years that I've been playing against him," Djokovic related. Federer has a chance to make it his 18th grand slam title if he wins the tournament. Djokovic burst onto the ATP circuit a few years after players like Federer and Nadal had already won many major events and the Serb currently has 10 titles. If Djokovic wins the tournament he would be tied with Rod Laver at eleven grand slams, which is fitting since he will be playing at Rod Laver Arena. Australian Open Wagering To maximize profits ahead of, and during this morning's Semi-Final, famed UK sportsbook bet365 Sports is offering both pre-match and live in play wagering markets. Djokovic is favored to win outright at 1.30, while Federer must make up a small difference at 3.50. There are dozens of additional markets for punters to capitalize on and each has a chance for punters to win lucrative cash.
