After the highs of a double cup winning season last term St Johnstone now have just 180 minutes to preserve their top flight status in Scotland.

An 11th placed finish meant they were destined for a two-legged play-off with a team from the Championship who were hoping to get promoted.

Inverness are the team in question after they saw off Partick Thistle and Arbroath in the earlier play-off ties and they host the Saints at Caledonian Stadium tonight.

The bookies seem convinces that St Johnstone will be a Premiership team next season and have them at 2/5 to win on aggregate whereas Inverness are 7/4 to prevail over the two legs.

However it's the Highlanders who are favourites to take a first leg lead at 17/10. The Saints are 15/8 to put themselves in pole position with a win this evening.

Caley Thistle come in to the game in good shape off the back of a solid end to the season, in which they won 19 points from a possible 24, and those play-off wins although it took a penalty shoot-out to edge past Arbroath when they were down to nine men, following two 0-0 stalemates.

A much-changed Saints side were thumped 4-0 in their final Premiership match but Callum Davidson won't be overly concerned with that result as his eyes have been firmly focused on tonight since his side's play-off fate was confirmed.

The Jags will make a tough evening though and goals could be thin on the ground. Under 2.5 Goals is priced up at just 1/2 and that's no real surprise considering the Saints only mustered 24 goals in their 38 league matches.

Callum Davidson will be happy to get back down the road to Perth with his side still in the tie for Monday's second leg and he could set up to stifle Billy Dodds' side. That could lead to a cagey first leg and we could see a repeat of those goalless draws between Caley and Arbroath with No Goalscorer priced at 11/2. No goals in the first 45 mins also appeals at 11/8.

    Bohs v Sligo Rovers 745pm
    Bohs have played 7 home games and scored in all of them, 11 goals in total.. Sligo have played 8 away games and scored in 7 of them, 11 goals in total.. Bohs have scored in their last 11 games home and away and Sligo have scored in their last 8, since losing 0-1 to Bohs. I’m backing btts here at 4/5 (seems a general price with all bookies) and small stakes on btts fh at 19/5 and btts bh at 14/1.

      Presuming you mean Morgan Morris for anytime try

    Nothing appealing in the football market tonight so it’s a dabble in the rugby market for me.

    🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿Ospreys v Bulls 🇿🇦
    🏉United Rugby Championship
    📅Tonight @ 20:10

    🔘Bet: over 46.5 match points: 17/20 (Unibet)
    💰NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    A big game in the final round of matches down in Swansea tonight. Both sides have to win, preferably with a bonus point (4+ tries) so I think both teams will throw caution to the wind and go all out for tries.

    Ospreys ideally need a bonus point win which will almost certainly grant them a place in next seasons European Champions cup. That’s a big carrot for the Ospreys who should be challenging at Europe’s top table.

    The Bulls need a bonus point win to guarantee them a home quarter final in the URC play offs. I predict they’ll come to play and score tries.

    The last 2 Ospreys home games have seen an incredible 81 and 90 points. An outrageous 24 tries were scored in those 2 games and I see no reason for that trend not to continue tonight; the points line at over 46.5 seems generous considering the Ospreys recent games. The weather in Swansea is meant to be dry and sunny so let’s hope for some running rugby and a try fest!

    I’ve also got some long shots for this game I’ll post shortly. 👍🏻

      🏉United Rugby Championship
      📅Friday @ 20:10

      🔘Bet 2: Michael Morris to score a try anytime: 15/4 (bet365)
      💰1 point ⭐️

      Michael Morris has been a try scoring machine for The Ospreys, especially of late. He has scored 4 tries in the last 2 games. He’s big and powerful and has been unstoppable from close range, where ospreys score most of their tries.

      He was denied a spot in the wales squad yesterday and will have a massive point to prove.

      Nearly 4/1 for their second top scorer – in a rich vein of scoring form – to score anytime has to be taken on in my opinion.

      🔘Bet 3: both teams to score 2+ tries each half: 20/1 (Skybet)
      💰0.5 points super Long shot! ⭐️

      In the last 2 ospreys games, this bet landed once and lost out by a single try in the second game. 20/1 seems extremely generous seeing as both teams have to go for it.

      🔘Bet 4: Dewi Lake, Morgan Morris, Johan Grobbelaar all to score anytime treble: 26/1 (PaddyPower)
      💰0.5 points super duper long shot! ⭐️

      In a nutshell, both sides have been scoring plenty of tries lately, most of those tries have come from rolling mauls or close drive over tries. Usually when a try is scored from the rolling maul it’s the hooker scoring (Lake and Grobbelaar) and I’ve already mentioned how I fancy Morgan Morris to burst over from close quarters.

      26/1 seems generous and will keep things fun. 👍🏻

      ••• Remember – these are 26/1, 20/1 and 4/1 for a reason so keep stakes sensible. I’ll be using my free £5 bets for the Skybet and PaddyPower bets.

      Fingers crossed! 🤞🏻

    Afternoon gents,

    Another goal-fest in Iceland last night and a doublefigure goal total brought in the Nap and Nb – don’t think they’ll be quite as many as that tonight but I’ve picked out the one Nordic game that I feel has the best chance…

    KORDRENGIR VS. KV (8.15pm)

    Both teams recent games have seen a fair few but it’s the H2H picture whoch gives this one added appeal – with 5-3-7-5 match goals scored in the most recent 4 meetings, I’ll be hoping for more of the same:

    OVER 3.5 GOALS
    (11/10, bet365) NAP ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    OVER 4.5 GOALS
    (12/5, williamhill) NB ⭐️⭐️

    OVER 5.5 GOALS
    (9/2, williamhill) NAP ⭐️

    Best of luck!

    Man City v Aston Villa
    Over 3.5 goals at 11/10
    Over 4.5 goals at 5/2
    Over 5.5 goals at 5/1
    If this game was being played at Villa then they would of stood a chance of getting something especially so late in the season,as it is City should wipe the floor with Villa at home and win the league (pains me to say).Villa are ok but they simply aren’t good enough to bother Man City.
    Prediction 5-1

    Man City to win -1 Asian Handicap
    Liverpool to win – 1 Asian Handicap
    Spurs to win -1 Asian Handicap
    0.96/1 Safe treble took 11/10 last week.

      The Liverpool game i would imagine Klopp will go with his Champions league starting eleven given that it will be the following Sat.

    • fitzythegypsy 2 years ago

      Fully agree about United Macca.. ETH has been in London since Monday having cut his Ajax contract short by 6 weeks to get stuck in ASAP.. Palace played last night too so combined with United players playing for their futures I think 5/4 is very backable

      Geographically it’s not quite a derby, but it sort of is in so far as they’re one of each others nearest rivals with most clubs being Dublin based, so fully expect Athlone to raise their game for this
