J-League Saturday August 3rd (written Friday morning)
Here are two of today's J-League previews, clubgowi will also be supplying subscribers with half time notes on the 11.00 Uk time kick offs.
Kashiwa Reysol- Sagan Tosu / Shonan Bellmare- Yokohama F. Marinos
Sporting did us a favour last week, finding a last gasp winner at Real Salt Lake, ahead of which I wrote ... Sporting have lost centre back Matt Besler (15-0-1) who was called up to the US squad this week and they have lost 2 of the last 3 he has sat out and I would argue he is their most important defender and possibly, overall player. They do get Mechack Jerome and Peterson Joseph back from Gold Cup duty which gives them more options.

I have put up one outright bet at this year's Wimbledon , Serena Williams to lose in Round 4 @ circa 25-1, which was sent to subscribers of the email service last Thursday. I have been talking up Sabine Lisicki for a week or more and readers who did not get on at the 26.0 , could still get double digit quotes yesterday ......
Chicago Fire won 2-1 (see previous preview).
Today, I have sent subscribers four selections ( all at odds of 2.30 +) and have posted brief snippets from some of them below ......
Stanislas Wawrinka- Lleyton Hewitt
Hewitt is very much in the twilight of his career, but has refound some form on grass and went to the semis at Queens, beating Dimitri, Querry and Del Potro in order, working his way past a player ranked top 30, top 20 and top 10 .
