Scottish Football Tips

Feb 3: Aberdeen v Celtic Betting Preview

ABERDEEN are drinking in the last-chance saloon but could say three cheers to a title race tonight. The Dons trail Celtic by six points and while it's not a decider at Pittodrie you can tie green and white ribbons to the trophy if Ronny Deila's side notch a win. Aberdeen...

Jan 30-31: SPFL Stats and Specials

IT'S a big weekend in Scotland with two League Cup semi-finals and some key matches in the league. As usual William Hill's Owen Scott has been looking at the fixtures and come up with some interesting stats and special bets. Remember these are pointers rather than tips. HIBS v...

Jan 25: Morton v Rangers Betting Preview

I'VE successfully focused on goals in recent weeks when it comes to Celtic and Rangers games. I tipped Celtic to score 3+ at the weekend and they've notched 15 in three games. Rangers are netting at a similar rate with 19 in four ahead of tonight's Championship trip to...

Jan 23: Scottish Football Betting Preview

LEIGH GRIFFITHS might be the form striker in the country but is still the 11-10 outsider to score the most goals in Scotland this season. Scottish bookmakers McBookie.com make Martyn Waghorn the 4-6 favourite with both men on the 20-goal mark. Griffiths can take a march on his rival on...

Jan 23-25: SPFL Stats Pack & Specials

LAST night's Aberdeen v Dundee match didn't live up to expectations with the Dons running out 1-0 winners against a side who had been scoring for fun. Head-to-head results suggested Dee might be shut out but recent form was on them scoring after 12 in four games. William Hill's...

Jan 22: Aberdeen v Dundee Betting Preview

DUNDEE have turned into the great entertainers and it must be tearing boss Paul Hartley's hair out. The Dens men head to Aberdeen tonight with a defence only slightly more fragile on the road than Dundee United's. They have conceded 24 to their neighbours' 26 and fans of goals...

Jan 16: Scottish Football Betting Preview

IT'S developed into a fascinating three-way title race but today Rangers can move six points clear of rivals Falkirk and Hibs. Mark Warburton's rejuvenated side should see off Livingston at home with the minimum of fuss and will be hoping for a draw when the Bairns entertain Hibs. Let's...

Jan 15: Dundee United v Celtic Preview

MIXU PAATELAINEN finally notched a win at the weekend. That's the good news. Bad news for the Dundee Utd boss is next up it's a visit from Celtic who have put the Tannadice men to the sword in recent seasons. Even this season the champions have netted eight in...

Jan 9: Scottish Cup Betting Preview

IT'S Scottish Cup weekend north of the border and the good news is most of the big guns will field full-strength teams. That should make predicting winners easier but with the likes of Celtic, Rangers, Motherwell, Hamilton, Dundee Utd and Inverness all short prices it's all about hunting down...

Jan 8: St Mirren v Partick Th Betting Preview

IT'S a big weekend of cup football north and south of the border and that's not always good news for punters. Team news is vital but in Scotland it's less important as most sides will field full-strength line-ups because the cash collected on a cup run is important. St...

Jan 2: Scottish Football Betting Preview

THE ref who was been mentioned most on this site in 2015 was Willie Collum. He's building a reputation for making wrong calls in big games and has been at the centre of many controversies. After awarding four penalties in his last two matches, at least three of them...

Dec 28: Rangers v Hibs Betting Preview

TIS the season to be jolly – unless you're Alan Stubbs and Mark Warburton. The rival Championship gaffers have been involved in a verbal tug of war that's becoming more boring to watch than Man United. They've talked the talk for weeks – now can they walk the walk? There's...

Dec 26: Scottish Football Betting Preview

IT'S a big weekend in the Scottish Premiership with Aberdeen hoping to go top on Saturday and Celtic out to return to the perch on Sunday. Celtic lead the Dons by one point are 1-10 with Ladbrokes to be top on New Year's day with Aberdeen 11-2. Thanks to...

Dec 26-28: SPFL Stats Pack & Specials

ABERDEEN have the chance to move top of the Premiership and pile the pressure on Celtic ahead of their trip to Hearts on Sunday.The Dons have been in magnificent form and should beat Inverness at home on Saturday. As you look at your Scottish picks here are some stats-based...

Dec 5: SPFL Stats Pack & Specials

ALL six Scottish Premiership matches take place on Saturday with Dundee v Aberdeeen live on TV at 12.30pm. It promises to be a busy day in Scotland and in my Record column on Saturday I'm talking up the possibility of all six top-flight games seeing both scoring for the...

William Hill Scottish Cup 4th Rd Draw

BOOKIES reckoned only four teams could win the Scottish Cup – and two of them were paired in the fourth-round draw. Tie of the round features Hearts v Aberdeen while Celtic travel to Stranraer and Rangers face Cowdenbeath or Arbroath at home. So no worries for the Old Firm...

Dec 1: Rangers v Dumbarton Betting Preview

RANGERS now know they're in a title race – although how long it lasts is anyone's guess. Hibs have drawn level with the Ibrox men at the top of the Championship but need to fend off suitors of the likes of Jason Cummings when the transfer window opens. And...

Nov 29: Inverness v Celtic Betting Preview

I CALLED it pretty much spot on when Celtic hosted Ajax in midweek and hope to get it right when they visit Inverness at Sunday lunchtime. Celtic are no bigger than 1-3 and that's too short for me on a ground where they've had plenty of problems in the...

Nov 27: St Johnstone v Dundee Preview

I ASKED Greg Browning for his opinion on this game yesterday and he fired me off a few stats. Fourteen out of 15 both to score and 13 out of 14 over 2.5 goals – makes goals in the Premiership clash at McDiarmid Park something of a no brainer....

Nov 21: SPFL Stats and Betting Specials

IT'S back to normal in Scotland with a full card and proper fight for the Championship title as Hibs and Falkirk chase Rangers. I'm on all three to win and in the Premiership there should be a convincing three points for Celtic at home to Kilmarnock. As usual William...

Nov 20: St Mirren v Morton Preview

WHILE Rangers have been dragged into a title race by Hibs and Falkirk it's a surprise to see which team is sitting in fourth – the best of the rest in a way. Morton have climbed to those lofty heights after four wins in a row and go into...

Nov 21-22: Your Team Your Call

WHEN we launched the new site we stressed it was all about adding features and contests and in general making it more user friendly. As you see all the tips we used to provide remain free but we aim to give Silver and Gold members value for money and...

Nov 17: UK Betting Preview

THE talk in Scotland has been about a three-way fight for the title and while Rangers remain massive odds-on favourites there's no doubt Hibs and Falkirk are making a fist of it. Falkirk's only defeats have been to the top two and victory against Livingston on Tuesday will close...

Top Scorer: Celtic, Rangers – or Rory?

HERE'S one for Celtic and Rangers fans to debate – or anyone else for that matter. With Ibrox hitman Martyn Waghorn on 14 goals and Hoops star Leigh Griffiths on 13, McBookie.com are betting on which player will be the top scorer in the whole of Scotland. Waghorn is...

Nov 14: Scottish Football Betting Preview

THERE are no Premiership fixtures today so the focus is on the lower leagues and Petrofac Training Cup semi-final. Queen’s Park v Peterhead at Hampden could claim to be match of the day in Scotland with Rangers or St Mirren awaiting the winners. Peterhead striker Rory McAllister could be the difference between the...

Oct 27: Scottish League Cup Tips

WE’VE reached the quarter-finals of the Scottish League Cup with ties split over Tuesday and Wednesday. First up it’s Inverness v Ross County and Morton v St Johnstone with Wednesday seeing the tie of the round between Hearts and Celtic while Hibs entertain Dundee United next Wednesday. Someone emailed...

APRIL 10: SCOTTISH FOOTBALL

RANGERS need to be at their Sunday best to keep on the trail of SPL leaders Celtic. The Hoops eased five points clear at the top with their narrow win against St Mirren but the gap should be back to two by 2.30pm. Walter Smith's men travel to a...

FEBRUARY 1: SCOTTISH TIPS

CELTIC meet Aberdeen for the third time in 10 days tonight – and the result could be the same as the first two meetings. It was 1-0 at Parkhead but a much more convincing 4-1 at Hampden last Saturday in the Co-op Cup semi-finals. But even that was an...
