football handicap betting tips

The Scottish Cup quarter-finals get underway tonight and it will be interesting to see how Hearts react after Sunday's damaging derby defeat.

The Jambos were on a great run heading to Easter Road but a dismal second-half performance cost them as Hibs claimed a deserved 2-1 win.

That damaged their chances of reaching the top six in the SPFL Premiership but it's all about the road to Hampden tonight as they host Dundee.

The Dark Blues are also looking to hit back after a poor run that has left them in danger of relegation so it should be a fascinating watch.

Heart of Midlothian vs Dundee top betting tips

Dundee's biggest problem of late has been a leaky defence and they haven't kept a clean sheet in the league since way back in October.

It has been a different story in the Scottish Cup, with successive shut-outs against Dundee United and Airdrie, but it's hard to see them keeping Hearts at bay,

Neil Critchley's men scored six when they last faced Dundee at Dens so a Jambos win with over 1.5 goals looks good at evens with BoyleSports.

Elton Kabangu has been a shrewd signing by Hearts, netting seven times since his January arrival. The Belgian is 15/8 for anytime scorer at Bet365 and that looks decent value.

Norwich City vs Oxford United top betting tips

Norwich City are still in the hunt for a play-off place in the EFL Championship and they'll be targeting three points tonight when Oxford United come calling.

The Canaries sit 11th but are just four points behind sixth-placed West Brom and a win tonight would move them up to ninth.

Norwich have lost just once in their last seven while Oxford's form in the same spell has been poor, with three draws and four defeats.

So it's no surprise to see the home win at just 8/15 with BoyleSports, although you can boost the odds to 7/5 by adding on over 2.5 goals in a bet builder.

That bet should stand a chance with Oxford conceding two or more in their last three games.

Norwich's last three games have failed to hit double figures for corners so under 9.5 flag kicks also looks decent at 6/5.

Cagliari v Genoa top betting tips

Cagliari are sitting just three points above the drop zone in Serie A so they'll be targeting a much-needed victory when Genoa come calling tonight.

Davide Nicola's side have taken just a point from their last three games but Genoa's form isn't so hot either, with one win from their last five.

It ended in a 2-2 draw when these sides faced off earlier this season and it should be another close game. Another stalemate pays 19/10 at BoyleSports while the half-time draw is safer at 20/23.

We saw 14 corners in the last meeting so that's another market worth exploring, with over 10.5 corners paying 13/10.
