THE heat is on Peter Grant heading into tonight’s Fife derby as he seeks a first Dunfermline win in nine games.
The Pars sit bottom of the table while Raith are fourth so Rovers look decent value for a Stark’s Park win at 21/20 with McBookie.
Grant has tried to stem the tide by tightening up at the back, with Dunfermline’s last two games ending in 0-0 draws.
But he needs to turn stalemates into wins so I fancy goals tonight, with over 2.5 strikes evens at McBookie and BTTS the same price at Bet365.
It’s another big night of Champions League action and Manchester United need a win at home to Villarreal after losing their group opener in Berne.
Cristiano Ronaldo will be on the pens after Bruno Fernandes did a Chris Waddle at the weekend so he appeals for anytime scorer at 10/13 with Mansionbet.
Villarreal have drawn four games 0-0 this season, including a Bernabeu stalemate at the weekend, so under 2.5 goals stands a chance at 13/10 with SportNation.
Chelsea’s game at Juventus is an intriguing one, with the Italian giants starting to find their feet under Max Allegri.
Juve have won 3-2 in their last two matches but will be without Paulo Dybala and Alvaro Morata due to injury.
That makes the Euro champions favourites at 19/20 (Unibet) but it should still be a close game and I’m backing the half-time stalemate at 11/10 with McBookie.
Elsewhere, I’m going for a BTTS double in Benfica v Barcelona and Wolfsburg v Sevilla. That bet pays 218/100 at Mansionbet.
