Happy Christmas everyone! We hope you had a great day and enjoyed some Christmas cheer.
It's back to business. Kind of.
Boxing Day is usually one of the best in the football betting calendar but this year we'll need to make he most of what remains. Postponements have wreaked havoc on the card with only six Premier League matches and 13 in the Football League set o go ahead.
Scotland has been a bit luckier wih just three games postponed, but of course all matches will be played in front of crowds no bigger than 500.
St Mirren frustrated Celtic in midweek despite a significantly understrength squad but they'll do well to repeat the trick for a second consecutive match, this time at Ibrox. The Buddies barely got out their own half on Wednesday and it could be a similar story today.
A Gers win is just 1/9 but backing them to score twice while keeping S Mirren out pays 20/23 a Bet365. St Mirren conceded a whopping 16 corners against Celtic and Rangers could rack up a big number against hem today. Over 8 pays even money a Bet365. Or you can have 25/1 on them equalling or bettering Celtic's tally of Over 15 corners.
Dundee look like a club in disarray at the moment and Aberdeen can take advantage a 3/5.
Motherwell's record at home stands up to scrutiny, just three defeats (Hibs, Rangers & Celtic) and look a good price for another Fir Park win at 13/10 versus Livingston, against home they've a good home record (W4 D1).
In the Premier League Norwich City are still struggling at the foot of the table and host and in-form Arsenal side who have climbed to fourth in the table. There's some uncertainy over who'll be available for either squad but the Gunners are rightfully keen favourites at 4/11. No one for he singles but worth adding to an acca.

I remember mile-sey years ago on the racing thread.
Very argumentative sort to say the least.
Let’s just say he left under something of a cloud, so much so if you typed his name your post went into moderation.
In fact if I type his name now it doesn’t post hence the hyphoned version above 😬
Morning gents,
Welcome to Boxing Day or as it’s more commonly known ‘Feel Like Sh*t And Eat Turkey Leftovers and Chocolate Day’ 🦃
I’m heading to Oz and hoping for an early livener to fend off the cold turkey – not sure if Sean might pop his thoughts up but have a suspicion it won’t be a goals or corner fest!
I’m opting for a ‘card and penalty’ approach for some low stake punting action;
MACARTHUR VS. SYDNEY (8.45am)
RED CARD SHOWN & PENALTY TAKEN
(15/2, williamhill) ⭐
MACARTHUR MISSED PENALTY
(20/1, bet365) ⭐
SYDNEY MISSED PENALTY
(18/1, bet365) ⭐
Best of luck with all bets today!
Ended 0-3 with loads of corners 🙈🦃
1. Adana Demirspor @2.85
I think the opponents have not rested enough to face in form Demispor.
2. Mansfield @1.97
Opponents has one of the worse away performance.
4 points from 10 away games.
3. Southampton @4.16
West ham involvement in the cup render them more tired than Southampton.
Treble pays a little bit above 24.0
Hartlepool with 4 points from 10 away league games excluding Cup games

Outstanding 👏
Two tough games in today’s A-League, with no clear favourites in either game. Both games could go either way. I do fancy cards to be given in both games, and am only doing a small stakes double for today on:
Paulo Retre (Sydney FC) and Alessandro Diamanti (Western Utd) to be booked @ 6.25 (bet365)
Sundays tips
Forfar win/o1.5tgs
6/5 bet 365 NAP
Celtic 7+ corners
St Johnstone 2+ cards
11/10 hills NB
Forfar are flying at the moment and have won 8 and lost 2 of the last 10 games, and one was away to top of the Scottish championship Arbroath in the cup, while the other was away to top of their own league Kelty. In the 8 wins they scored 2+ in every game.
Should come as no surprise to see me take on corners in a Celtic game again, I’ve been saying for weeks now give goals a swerve and stick to the corner markets which have been profitable all season. Adding in opposition cards which I’ve done a few times lately and this bet has landed the last 4 games. Ps if you are taking on goals/ wdw market then I’d wait for team line ups. On top of a huge injury list there’s rumours of a couple of Covid cases too.
Yourodds wild one today

BTTS & over 1 card each – 24/5

Celtic 7+ corners 10/11 (Skybet) NAP NB combined ✅✅
Lands inside 47 mins.
Celtic corners are a cash cow right now. Price went off at 8/13 but I posted a few days ago. Hopefully others got on at the very generous 10/11 price.
I’m flying from Ireland to wales today so short tips from me with no explanations I’m afraid.
🏴 Dundee U v Hibs:

🔘 Bet 1: o3.5 cards/o1.5 Livi cards – 10/11 (888sport) NAP
🔘 Bet 2: o1.5 cards each – 1/1 (Unibet) NB
Followed the Celtic corners, cracking price for only 7 considering the way they are racking them up this season. Thanks for posting and GL with your other bets! 👍

Kyle – glad you got on at 10/11 – nice to expose a mistake in price by the bookies. 👍🏻
