scottishcup

THERE are three William Hill Scottish Cup ties today with Celtic having a straightforward tie at Raith Rovers.

Neil Lennon's men are no bigger than 2-9 at William Hill to win and could do to nil (10-11, various).

The club have managed to hold on to top scorer Gary Hooper and he could celebrate staying with at least one goal. Hooper hit four against Raith when the clubs met in the League Cup at Parkhead earlier in the season and is 5-2 at Ladbrokes and Paddy Power to net the opener.

Hibs take on Aberdeen at home and it's a fixture the Dons have edged this season with two wins and a draw. However, both lost in midweek and this may need a replay to settle the quarter-final place.

The draw pays 12-5 at BetVictor and it has the feel of a unders game, 5-6 at BetVictor, after last weekend's 0-0 SPL draw at Pittodrie.

If you're looking for a first scorer the man could be Niall McGinn at 11-2 (various). Dons' top scorer bounced back from missing a penalty against Hibs to net in the 3-1 loss at St Johnstone in midweek.

In my Daily Record I tipped Hamilton to cause a minor shock by winning at Dunfermline and went for Morton to notch a slightly bigger scalp at Dundee.

It's the SPL's bottom dogs at home to the First Division leaders and the Greenock men are 12-5 with the likes of Ladbrokes and Paddy Power. I can see a confident outfit edging it but it's safer take draw no bet at 11-8 with 888sport.

Recommendations

Hooper to score first (12.45pm)
(5-2, Ladbrokes, Paddy Power)

Hibs v Dons under 2.5 goals (3.30pm)
(5-6, BetVictor)

Morton draw no bet (3pm)
(11-8, 888sport)

    Good luck everyone. Have a little flutter on the double. Mulgrew is the man, he told me he is going to score for me today. I know he won’t let me down. You heard it here first.

    Charlie Mulgrew MUST score. He promised he would even display a t-shirt saying Chris Guy bashed the bookies and I helped him.

      Craig, probably be watching you and hope you’re right. I think both games at Easter Road last season were 0-0 and it was 0-0 last week at Pittodrie.

    Unfortunately i can’t match your stakes but your tips are pretty good chris, i had a thought Mulgrew would score but i just didn’t have the money to back up my brain :-)

      John, if you think someone like Mulgrew is going to score you don’t need Chris’s stakes. Put on what you can afford and you have a win.
