Mark Walker's Scottish Tips

St Mirren smashed five goals past Kilmarnock last week and are on a big push for a top six place.
And they look a good price to score at least two goals at Dundee this week at 13/10.

Stephen Robinsson's side are perhaps unlucky not to be in the top six and they have produced the odd inconsistent performance this season so far.

But when they click – as they certainly did last week – they are one of the best sides in the league.
They were so clinical against Killie and looked like they could score at will.

Driven forward by midfielders Mark O'Hara, Killian Phillips and Caolan Boyd-Munce, they overran their opponents last week and could have scored more.

So it's certainly not a huge ask for them to score two goals at a Dundee side leaking goals.

Dundee have goals at both ends, but their collapse to somehow lose 4-3 to Rangers last week after twice being two goals up sums up their season.

One clean sheet in the league since October tells you all you need to know and Saints can score two or more at McBookie.com's price.

Motherwell have been bizarrely written off for their trip to Ayrshire to face a struggling Kilmarnock side and they should be backed in the double chance of a draw or a win at 11/10 with McBookie.com.

Killie seem bereft of confidence after collecting just one point in their last five games and that was an injury time equaliser against Hibs.

The players who were so reliable for them last year and created their attacking impetus have just not performed to the same levels of consistency this season.

Killie crashed to a 5-1 hammering at St Mirren last week and while Motherwell also suffered a heavy 4-1 loss at Aberdeen, they had at least been performing well up until then.

It's hard to see whey Killie are so short at odds-on and while it's tempting to back Well at 15/4, the draw on our side at 11/10 looks a safer option.

Queen of the South can win their derby at Annan Athletic at McBookie.com's 7/5.

The Dumfries side finally hit some consistency after a disappointing campaign and have won two of their last three games, including an eye-catching 4-1 beating of Inverness last week.

That put them into the play-off position in League One and although Annan beat Kelty Hearts last week, that was just their second home league win since October.
