Saturdays top tips 2

It's Scottish Cup Final day and the bookies make Celtic red-hot favourites to beat Aberdeen and seal another treble.

BoyleSports price the Hoops at just 1/8 to lift the trophy and the odds only increase to 3/10 for a win inside 90 minutes.

That's probably because the Dons lost their last four league games, including a 5-1 battering at home by a second-string Celtic side.

But anything can happen in a cup final and the Red Army will still descend on Glasgow in hope of seeing a first Scottish Cup triumph since 1990.

Aberdeen v Celtic top betting tips

Jimmy Thelin has tried to press Celtic in their games this season and it hasn't really worked. While the Dons came from 2-0 down to claim a Parkhead point earlier in the season, they were also thrashed 6-0 in the League Cup semi-final and 5-1 home and away in the Premiership.

The definition of madness is to keep trying the same thing and expect different results so the Swede might try a different approach at Hampden and sit back. That could see the corner count rack up for Brendan Rodgers' men so Celtic -3.5 in the corner handicap looks good at 23/20 with BoyleSports.

Daizen Maeda has hoovered up the Player of the Year awards in Scotland and the Japanese forward will be looking to finish a memorable campaign in style.

He's 5/4 at BoyleSports to take his tally for the season to 35 while the odds are longer for an assist at 15/4 with McBookie.

Sheffield United vs Sunderland

Tension will be rife at Wembley this afternoon as Sheffield United and Sunderland face off in the Championship play-off final.

This prize is a place in the Premier League and so much is at stake for both clubs with the mega millions on offer in the land of milk and honey.

These games are usually either classics or absolute stinkers and I'm more inclined to think we'll see the latter this afternoon.

Sunderland only just edged their semi-final with Coventry while Sheffield United swatted aside Bristol City with ease.

That's why BoyleSports make the Blades 4/6 favourites to come out on top but the odds are better for a win inside 90 minutes at 13/10.

One goal might be enough to win it so I fancy under 1.5 goals at 7/5 with BoyleSports, who also price the half-time draw at 5/6.

This could get spicy with so much at stake and over 52.5 booking points pays 11/10.

Arminia Bielefeld vs Stuttgart

There's a David v Goliath clash in the German Cup Final today as third-tier Arminia Bielefeld look to complete a fairytale season by beating Stuttgart.

Arminia can look back on this campaign with pride after winning promotion and claiming the scalps of Hannover, Union Berlin, Freiburg, Werder Bremen and Bayer Leverkusen during a memorable cup run.

After beating so many Bundesliga sides, they won't have an inferiority complex against Stuttgart but BoyleSports still make the minnows 16/5 outsiders to get their hands on the trophy.

Arminia will probably sit back and try to frustrate Stuttgart so going for corners might be the best option for punters. Over 6.5 Stuttgart corners pays 21/20 at BoyleSports while backing the Bundesliga side at -3.5 in the corner handicap is bigger at 6/4.

The lower-league side could also put the boot in so backing Arminia at -1 in the card handicap also appeals at 7/5 with Bet365.
