Fridays top tips 2

Falkirk have suffered from a bad case of the title jitters in the SPFL Championship and have a major test of nerve away to Partick Thistle tonight.

The Bairns looked home and hosed a few weeks ago but now lead Livingston by just three points after taking a single point from their last two games.

They are 12 goals better off than the Lions though with just two games to go so a win at Firhill tonight will effectively seal the deal.

But it won't be easy as Thistle have plenty to play for, with the Jags holding on to the final promotion play-off slot by goal difference only.

Partick Thistle vs Falkirk top betting tips

Although Falkirk have slipped up in recent weeks it's important to look at those two games a bit closer. They conceded a leveller in the last minute away to Ayr having been the better team and were 1-0 up against Raith until Sean Mackie's red card sparked a collapse that saw them concede three times in the final few minutes.

Thistle's recent form is even worse, with two defeats and a draw in their last three, so that's why BoyleSports make the leaders 8/13 hot favourites for an away win.

The Bairns should have too much class in attack for Thistle and combining the away win with over 1.5 goals boosts the odds to evens.

Backing a busy night for the officials also appeals with so much at stake for both teams. It was a similar story at the weekend, with nine yellows and a red flashed in that loss to Raith.

I can't find a market for total cards but McBookie have prices on certain players going into the book. Falkirk's Brad Spencer is 13/5 for a ninth card this term while Thistle's Dan O'Reilly is 5/2 in the same market, having also picked up eight yellows this term.

Stoke City v Sheffield United top betting tips

Stoke City still aren't safe from the drop in the EFL Championship and they'll be out to make sure they stay up by beating Sheffield United at home tonight.

A five-game run without defeat came crashing to a spectacular end for the Potters on Easter Monday as Leeds battered them 6-0 at Elland Road to seal promotion.

Later that day, Sheffield United lost 2-1 at Burnley to end their own hopes of automatic promotion so Chris Wilder's side are now gearing up for the play-offs instead.

That could be good news for Stoke, who are four points clear of the drop zone with just two games to go, but the Blades will be out to find some form ahead of those vital knockout games..

Given how abject Stoke were against Leeds, I'm surprised to see them as 13/10 favourites for this one, although they have gone five without defeat at home.

Sheffield United look too big for me at 15/8 with BoyleSports so I'm going to back them to recover from that painful loss at Burnley.

BTTS has failed to land in the last three Stoke games so there could be some value in betting against it tonight at 20/21 with BoyleSports.

Paris St-Germain v Nice

PSG remain on track for an unbeaten season in Ligue 1 but this clash with Nice is a potential banana skin ahead of their massive Champions League semi-final against Arsenal.

Boss Luis Enrique will probably rest a few of his big hitters to keep them fresh for that huge match and fifth-placed Nice are desperate for points as they bid to join them at Europe's top table next term.

That makes BTTS appealing but the odds are poor at 6/10 with BoyleSports. You can boost those odds to 20/21 by adding on over 2.5 goals.

Goncalo Ramos could start up front and the Portuguese striker will be desperate to stake a claim for some minutes against Arsenal. He's 11/8 at BoyleSports for anytime scorer and that looks decent value.

Friday's Super Singles

  • Sheffield United to win 15/8 BoyleSports.
