KILMARNOCK let themselves down last week at Aberdeen in the Scottish Cup quarter final. But they can put it right by beating St Mirren this week and leapfrogging them up to fourth.

Derek McInnes' side produced probably their worst display of the season as they were well beaten by the Pittodrie crisis club.
But they are a different animal on their Rugby Park surface and can get the better of the Saints, who currently sit above them in the table.

Matty Kennedy was a big miss last week for the Ayrshire side and he is expected to return this weekend.

Killie have the best home record in the league outside the Old Firm – one goal better off than Hearts – and this is a real opportunity to push on.

St Mirren are also very strong at home, but they do turn in the odd stinker on their travels as they lost at Livingston and needed a last gasp leveller at Ross County.

And Killie can get the job done at 23/20.

In the same league, HEARTS look attractively priced at 17/20 to win in the Highlands at Ross County.

The Jambos were given a fright on Monday night at Morton and they were very nearly taken into extra time by the Championship side before they grabbed a late winner in the Scottish Cup.

However, they are the class act in the league outside Celtic and Rangers and should be too strong for a spirited but limited County side.

The Staggies are battling it out to avoid the drop, but may have to settle for a second successive play-off.

Hearts are obviously nailed-on for third place and will want to head into the international break on a high.

CLYDE have a must-win game really at the bottom of League Two and they can grab three vital points at off-form Bonnyrigg Rose at 8/5.

The Bully Wee's 133-year Scottish League status is under serious threat and they currently sit six points adrift at the bottom of the fourth tier, with the prospect of a nightmare play-off against the winners of the Lowland League and Highland League.

But Ian McCall has revitalised them which include a sensational 6-1 win at runaway leaders Stenhoumuir and their great escape is on after three wins in their last five games.

They face a Bonnyrigg side who have collected just two points from their last six games and Clyde can edge a much-needed win.
