While English football fans work themselves into a frenzy at the prospect of “football coming home” tomorrow night, fans of the beautiful game north of the border have some more down to earth action to get excited about on Saturday.
Friday night saw the start of the Scottish season with two games in the Premier Sports Cup and the games come thick and fast today with 12 games from the group stages of the competition and the first chance to get a proper Saturday coupon on in weeks.
Of course, punters will need to tread carefully at this early stage of the season but there could still be some value around if you do your homework.
Hearts return to the top flight this season but their campaign begins at League One Peterhead. There's been plenty of question marks over Robbie Neilson's stewardship, despite him leading Hearts to promotion, but the Jambos' board have kept their faith in him and his side are 1/7 to start with a win. The capital club still boast one of the best squads in the country on paper and could be a force to be reckoned with in the Premiership.
That 1/7 price is way too short but a BetBuilder featuring two or more Hearts goals plus a clean sheet (Peterhead under 1 goal) pays 13/10.
Kilmarnock massively underperformed last season and begin with a visit to Lowland League side East Kilbride. The K-Park side are another with huge ambitions but Killie should be too good for them at odds of around 1/5.
One team that over-achieved last term were Livingston who reached the final of this competition last season and finished 6th in table after tailing off at the end of the season. Hosts Brechin City dropped out of the top ranks for the first time in 67 years when they lost out in a play-off to Kelty Hearts and it could be a long way back for the Glebe Park side. This looks the most one-sided match of the day with Livi as short as 1/12.
Brechin scored just 13 goals in a truncated season of 22 games last term and a Livingston clean sheet could be the order of the day at 4/5.
Cove Rangers should be worth watching again this season. Paul Hartley's side narrowly missed out on back-to-back promotions in a play-off against Airdrieonians but they've added more experience in the shape of Ian Vigurs and Ross Draper who both know their way around football in the north of Scotland. With a squad that already includes the likes of Megginson, Fyvie, Yule and McAllister they'll be there or therabouts in a competitive League One.
They can start with a win against a Stirling Albion who finished strongly in League Two to claim a top half finish.
Both Greg and SlipsTips are looking to Scandanavia for their best bets on Saturday. The Swedish Allsvenskan is in the spotlight for SlipsTips who has a 4/5 single in the AIK v Varbergs BoIS match. In the same league Greg is banking on Malmö to deliver alongside goals in one of the five Eliterserien matches in Norway on Saturday for his Bet of the Day.

Zulia FC
V
Trujillanos FC
21:00
Venezuelan Premier Division
Trullijanos to score 6-4 (BETFAIR SPORTSBOOK).
trullijanos are truly terrible this season.
10 games 10 defeats scored 1 conceded 37.
This is why it’s a bonkers bet and not a NAP.
*** The one goal they scored was against today’s opponents Zulia ***.
Zulia last season out of 20 teams had the second worst defence and the worst home defense.
This season zulia have the second worst home defense, terrible trullijanos have the worst of course.
Zulia are currently 2nd bottom above terrible trullijanos.
Zulia last 6 games seen btts and overs And have conceded in 18 of last 20 games.
Basically if there is a team terrible trujillanos can score against its zulia as they did in may.
An interesting stat is that trullijanos have scored in 17 of the last 18 head to head.
I don’t know what’s happening at trullijanos as they have fallen off a cliff this season but at the price I can’t resist.
⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽⚽
96th minute goal for terrible trujillanos, BONKERS or what 😁
Finished 2-1
⚽ Winner ⚽

St Pats v Derry 7.45
BTTS 6/5
Both teams on good goal scoring form, 4 out of the last 5 for both teams seeing BTTS. Not as big a gap as the league table suggests, Derry had a crap start to the league and r starting to find a bita form. The two teams played on the 24th May it finished 2-2 hope both teams can find the net tonite
Good Luck All
Crap 1-0 final score, Derry couldnt get on the scoresheet even tho St Pats only had ten man for the last half hr.

It’s been a long time since I’ve bet on my beloved Bury and, whilst it’s not the true Shakers, I’m going for a low stakes punt on goals for AFC whose games have tended to see a preponderance for decent scorelines:
THACKLEY V AFC BURY (3.00pm – friendly)
OVER 3.5 GOALS

Main bets coming from South America this evening and will post later – best of luck!
Italy v England Euro 2020 Final Kick off 8.00pm Sunday
Draw at 2/1*****(NAP)
Game to be decided on Penalties at 4/1
Can see this going all the way with England winning on pens,i can’t see either team risking to much in what is a massive game.Italy tend to start games at a frantic pace then come the last twenty mins they are holding on for dear life but i can’t see them doing that here.Should be a tight game.
Argentina v Brazil
Draw at 21/10
Game to be decided on penalties at 9/2
Will be doing all as singles and also doubling them up for long-shots.

Lions Tour 🦁 – Sharks v Lions
Lions playing the Sharks again after their game with the Bulls today was called off with Covid issues. Very strong team again against a team we racked up 54 points against on Wednesday and can’t see anything other than a big win again but the handicap at 43 points doesn’t interest. Big Duhan on the wing again and will score try’s and have a few bets on him:
Duhan van der Merwe to score a brace @ evens (NAP)
Duhan to score a try in each half @ 5/4
Duhan to score a hat trick @ 16/5
All with Paddy Power
Punt – Duhan to score a try in both halves & Tadgh Beirne to score a try @ 15/2 with SkyBet special
Duhan van der Merwe is 12/5 to score a try in both halfs with Hills
Good spot pal but my bets are placed.
Adding Lions 9, Gareth Davies for a try anytime at a good price of 11/10 with Paddy Power
Lions win 31-71 after a fussy first half and then red card for the Sharks. Good win in the end. No 2nd try from Duhan has killed the bets annoyingly ❌
Spotted a pricing error on SKYBET.
Bolivia 7-30 pm.
Aurora v San Jose.
They have BTTS at 11-10 and aurora to score at 15-8 😂.
Aurora are rubbish and would be a longshot but interestingly San Jose have scored in 22 of the last 23 meetings.
Be rude not to have a small wager at the price but I repeat this is not one to mortgage your house on
😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
San Jose are rubbish that should read ❌
And San Jose 15-8 to score.
I had a bit of a mare typing this ☹️
Cheers Elvis. Lumped £200 on, knew the price would be evens or less in-play and cashed out after 2 mins for £77 profit 👏🏻
Well done master you know what your doing amazing how many times you can pick the sky 1+ goal market and instantly cash after ko
Well done guys, I only had a tenner on and as I did it in the shop couldn’t cash out.
Glad someone got some free money out of SKYBETs mistake 😂
That was meant to be couldn’t cash out as I went shopping f.f.s 😳
I really must proof read my posts before posting…

AGUA NEGRA to score 13-10 (HILLS)
BTTS is 11-8 so not much difference.
Caldense conceded in their last 7 games and let 2 in against the bottom side last time just 5 days ago
Caldense are 1-14 to win .
They are worthy favourites but that price looks a bit o.t.t.
They will win but an away goal based on last seasons standings is not out of the question.
Prediction 3-1 or 4-1

After backing these markets in semi finals and coming up dry i can definately see one of the two main bets landing with whats on the line for Messi and co… Bound to be sone form of controversy or var nonsense… GL all
I agree on the penalty, it would be a brave refereeto give the argies one in brazil and maybe Brazil to score a penalty.
Good luck Sammy, back home now, got a few tinnies in to make sure I’m still awake 🍻🍻
