Middlesex 239 for 4 (Stirling 112, Morgan 103*) beat Kent 238 for 7 (Dickson 99, Stevens 61) by six wicketsScorecard Paul Stirling and Eoin Morgan both scored attractive hundreds as Middlesex eased to a comfortable six-wicket victory against Kent in the Royal London One-day Cup at Lords.Stirling hit 112 and Morgan 103 not out as Middlesex chased down Kents 50-over total of 238 for 7 with 5.1 overs to spare, but also central to the home sides success was the brilliant bowling of new-ball pair Steven Finn and Tim Murtagh.Finn, a fearsome prospect particularly in an intimidating opening spell, finished with 2 for 31 from his ten overs while Murtagh even bowled a maiden, his third, in the 46th over of Kents innings on his way to figures of 2 for 28.Irishmen Stirling and Morgan put on 214 in 39 overs for the third wicket after Ryan Higgins edged Matt Coless first ball to first slip in the second over and Middlesex were reduced to 16 for 2 when Nick Gubbins was caught behind off Mitch Claydon in the fifth over.When Stirling eventually fell, chipping Joe Denlys leg spin to short extra cover, only nine more runs were needed for victory. Morgan saw Middlesex home at 239 for 4, despite the further loss of George Bailey to Coles. Both Stirling and Morgan struck a six and 13 fours.Both teams came into this South Group tie with two wins from four matches but, for such an important game in the eight-fixture group stage, both also had to do without two players chosen in the England Lions squad for their Tri-Series against the Pakistan and Sri Lanka A teams.Kents total, though below-par, was almost entirely due to a fighting third-wicket stand of 135 in 26 overs between Sean Dickson, whose 99 from 126 balls was a career-best in what was only the 24-year-olds sixth List A appearance, and the veteran Darren Stevens, who scored 61 off 70 balls.Finn deserved more than just the scalp of Kent captain Sam Northeast in a blistering new ball spell of 6-2-13-1. Running in hard from the Pavilion End, he beat Dickson several times early on and almost had him caught at midwicket from a miscued clip off his pads.Northeast, on 2 and trying to work a fast, rising ball to leg, succeeded only in lobbing it back at Finn, who moved to his right and leapt high in his follow-through to take the return catch.Murtagh was also a handful in his own impressive and probing opening spell of 8-2-26-1, and the seamer had Denly lbw for 4 in the third over of Kents innings. At 12 for 2, when Finn sent back Northeast, it looked as if Kent - with the England Lions pair of Daniel Bell-Drummond and Sam Billings missing from their top order - were in big trouble.It was a moot point, and one not lost on Kent supporters, whether Bell-Drummond and Billings, despite his magnificent 175 for the Lions against Pakistan A at Canterbury, would have learned more as prospective senior England batsmen had they instead been up against the fiery Finn and the wily Murtagh. Certainly, Kent could have done with Billings capacity for explosive run-making in a match central to both teams ambitions of earning quarter-final qualification.Middlesex followers, meanwhile, were wondering about the absence from their attack of Toby Roland-Jones, with the in-form fast bowler left out of the Lions team, led by Dawid Malan, chosen to face Pakistan A.Somehow, Dickson and Stevens managed to see off Finn and Murtagh and, against the change bowlers, they began to build their fine partnership. An extraordinary upper-cut six off a suffering James Fuller by Stevens, with a vertical bat, helped to change the momentum of the innings.Stevens also drove Ollie Rayners off spin straight for six while Dickson played some quality strokes including a classical off drive for four against left-arm seamer James Franklin and a reverse-slapped boundary against Rayner.When Stevens slog-swept Rayner straight into deep square legs hands in the 32nd over, the 40-year-old all-rounder slumped down on his bat in disappointment and Finns return, to bowl the 36th and 38th overs, brought Middlesex right back into the game.Dickson, having edged Finn through a vacant first slip to go to 99, chopped the next ball into his stumps and only Alex Blake, with 23, and Callum Jackson, who hit Fuller over long on for six in a 24-ball unbeaten 28, made much impression after that.

The Magic Man failed to predict a perfect score last week but still got five results correct, including Chelseas win over Manchester United and West Hams triumph over Sunderland.Here is how Merse got on last time out... Last weekends results Result Merse predicted Bournemouth 0-0 Spurs 2-2 Arsenal 0-0 Boro 4-0 Leicester 3-1 Palace 1-1 West Ham 1-0 Sunderland 3-0 Hull 0-2 Stoke 1-1 Swansea 0-0 Watford 1-1 Burnley 2-1 Everton 1-2 Liverpool 2-1 West Brom 3-1 Man City 1-1 Southampton 2-1 Chelsea 4-0 Man Utd 1-0 And here is what he is tipping this weekend...Sunderland v Arsenal - Saturday from 11.30pm, Sky Sports 1 HDThis is a terrible game for Sunderland, who are struggling big time. I just cant see where that first win is going to come from and I really doubt it will be against Arsenal this weekend. Sland vs Arsenal October 29, 2016, 11:30am Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Middlesbrough caused them a few problems at the Emirates, but the Gunners were poor and I dont think theyll be that bad again.I know Olivier Giroud came back in the midweek EFL Cup win, but I wouldnt be tempted to throw him in from the start on Saturday.PAUL PREDICTS: 0-3 (Sky Bet odds 17/2) Highlights from Middlesbroughs goalless draw at Arsenal Everton v West Ham - Nissan Super Sunday from 12.30pm, Sky Sports 1 HDThe turning point for Everton was the Norwich defeat. Theyre not going down, theyre not challenging for the title and theyre not in Europe so a cup run would have been ideal. Everton vs West Ham October 30, 2016, 12:30pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass But the way Ronald Koeman treated that game was worrying and they havent won since.West Ham have had three big results in a row and this game looks more difficult than it did a few weeks ago, but Romelu Lukaku loves a goal against the Hammers and I think he nets again.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-0 (Sky Bet odds 8/1) Highlights from West Hams win over Sunderland Southampton v Chelsea - Nissan Super Sunday from 3.30pm, Sky Sports 1 HDSouthampton have only lost one in their last 10 and this is a really difficult match for Chelsea.Im surprised they went out of the EFL Cup in the manner they did. Theyre playing once a week and should have highlighted that as a must-win competition. They missed a trick there. Soton vs Chelsea October 30, 2016, 3:30pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass Claude Puels side will put up a real fight on Sunday because they are extremely difficult to break down and a threat going forward.Im picking a draw but if Chelsea do manage to get a win at St Marys, you need to put them back up as contenders.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds 5/1) Highlights from Chelseas win over Man Utd Stoke City v Swansea City - Monday Night Football from 7pm, Sky Sports 1 HDIt was only a matter of time before Stoke got back on track. Xherdan Shaqiri was 10 out of 10 for them against Hull - not many players in the Premier League can put in a display like he did last week. Stoke vs Swansea October 31, 2016, 7:00pm Live on Get Sky Sports Get a Sky Sports pass The problem is we dont see that kind of performance often enough from him. You cant play a 10 every week - only Lionel Messi does that - but you need to be a seven at least. Hes far too up and down.Stoke have showed they are a good team, though, and I expect them to make it three in a row on Monday.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-1 (Sky Bet odds 15/2) Highlights from Stokes win over Hull City West Brom v Manchester City - Saturday, 3pmA massive game for Pep Guardiola.dddddddddddd Its six without a win now, and this is a difficult away match before facing Barcelona again next week.Before you know it, it could be eight winless games and thats a lot considering the quality they have in their team.West Brom have been doing well at home recently, getting a draw against Tottenham and beating West Ham, and they will threaten Man City from set pieces, but I think Guardiola brings back his big names and they squeak a result.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-2 (Sky Bet odds 7/1) Highlights from Southamptons draw at Man City Tottenham v Leicester City - Saturday, 3pmIt wouldnt surprise me if Claudio Ranieri rested his stars again with Copenhagen to come in the Champions League. Thats the priority now and if they can get a result in Denmark, qualification is done and dusted. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. Its an interesting game for Tottenham because theyre coming off a draw against Bournemouth, and if they drop points on Saturday, their next league game is away at Arsenal after a Champions League tie. Its potentially a tricky little run so it makes beating Leicester quite important.I expect them to do it with Ranieri naming a similar team to the one that lost to Chelsea.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-0 (Sky Bet odds 13/2) Highlights from Leicesters 3-1 win over Crystal Palace Watford v Hull City - Saturday, 3pmI watched Hull against Bournemouth and they were all over the shop, and then Stoke played them off the park a week later. Its not looking good.They had a positive result in the EFL Cup to stop the rot, but the Premier League is a much tougher challenge and Watford are a good team.They should get the job done at home to extend Hulls wait for a win.PAUL PREDICTS: 2-0 (Sky Bet odds 13/2) Highlights from Swansea and Watfords goalless draw Manchester United v Burnley - Saturday, 3pmZlatan Ibrahimovic was a world-class striker but hes not anymore. He is 35 and playing in the hardest league in the world so as the season goes on, I cant see him getting better.Jose Mourinho will obviously stick with him despite his recent struggles and he should get a few opportunities against Burnley, who havent looked up to scratch away from Turf Moor.It looks like a routine home win to follow up Wednesdays big result over rivals Manchester City.PAUL PREDICTS: 3-0 (Sky Bet odds 5/1) Highlights from Burnleys dramatic win over Everton Middlesbrough v Bournemouth - Saturday, 3pmMiddlesbrough created some great chances at the Emirates but they struggle to score and that could be their downfall.I would go with Adama Traore from the start against Bournemouth. He gives them pace, provides a real outlet and offers something different in attack, which is especially important against an Eddie Howe team that likes to play an expansive style of football.Howes side have impressed me in recent weeks. They did well against Watford, thrashed Hull and played very good football against Spurs, and I think theyll pick up three points on the road this weekend.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-2 (Sky Bet odds 10/1) Highlights from Bournemouth and Tottenhams draw Crystal Palace v Liverpool - Saturday, 5.30pmEverybody is talking Liverpool up as contenders for the title but a trip to Palace is a stiff examination of their credentials.Alan Pardew seems to be one of those managers that blows hot and cold because his side either win six on the trot or lose six.The defeat at Leicester was their second on the bounce and they face a big test themselves on Saturday.If Palace defend like they did at Leicester, they wont get anything from this game but theyre a better team than the last two games and will take something from this match.PAUL PREDICTS: 1-1 (Sky Bet odds 6/1) Highlights from Liverpools victory over West Brom PLAY SUPER 6Theres another £250,000 jackpot up for grabs in Soccer Saturday Super 6 game.
