Saturdays top tips 2

It's another busy day in the group stage of the Scottish League Cup and Dundee's trip to Alloa is the most intriguing match.

New Dens boss Steven Pressley got his reign off to a bad start last weekend as his side lost 1-0 at home to Championship side Airdrie.

They now face a Wasps team who have won both their Group C games, so anything other than a victory would leave the Dark Blues facing an early exit from the tournament.

Alloa Athletic vs Dundee top betting tips

A lack of cutting edge cost Dundee last week as they failed to find a way past an Airdrie defence that was leaking goals in the second tier last term.

A trip to Alloa's plastic pitch is far from ideal so I'd be surprised if the Dark Blues scored a lot of goals this afternoon. BoyleSports still make Pressley's side 2/5 favourites but you can boost those odds to 13/8 by combining a Dundee win with under 3.5 goals.

Wasps boss Andy Graham will probably set the League One side up to frustrate their Premiership opponents. I'd imagine Dundee will dominate possession so there could also be some value in betting against BTTS at evens with BoyleSports.

Ayr United vs Arbroath

Ayr United got their campaign off to a spectacular start by routing Annan 6-1 in midweek and now welcome fellow Championship side Arbroath to Somerset Park.

The Red Lichties did well last weekend as they held Premiership side St Mirren to a 0-0 draw then picked up a bonus point in the penalty shoot-out.

That has made Group D one of the most open sections in the League Cup and today's clash could go a long way to deciding who finishes top.

BoyleSports make Ayr 11/20 favourites and that seems fair enough given how impressive they were in midweek. Arbroath will be a tougher nut to crack than League Two Annan but backing Scott Brown's men to be winning at half-time and full-time still looks decent at 6/4 with BoyleSports.

Arbroath didn't make many chances against St Mirren so there could also be some value in betting against BTTS here at 20/21.

France Women vs Germany Women

France have been hugely impressive at the women's Euros this summer and should have too much class for Germany in tonight's quarter-final.

Les Bleus topped a group including holders England, scoring 11 goals in the process, while the Germans suffered a 4-1 battering from Sweden in their last outing.

That's why BoyleSports make the French favourites tonight but a win inside 90 minutes still pays 20/21, which looks decent value.

The Germans have been disappointing so far but they still possess plenty of firepower so we should see goals at both ends tonight.

Striker Lea Schuller has scored twice for Germany so far and she looks worth a punt at 5/4 with Bet365 to either score or assist tonight.
