If/conditional + verb ing?
Hi all!
I regularly play football, and I am often in situations where I am not sure what tense to use (in bold):
1) I can get a friend to come and play with us for tonight's game if we miss/are missing someone.
2) Please confirm if you're coming tonight.
3) Please let me know if we play/are playing on/this Wednesday.
4) We are not playing bad, but we should take more advantage/should be taking more advantage of our occasions.
Thank you for your help.
