IT was another terrific night last night and another winning NAP as Wolves and Man Utd delivered over 2.5 goals at 13-10 and we saw all 7 matches in Serie B land at 8-1.
Wednesday sees another busy night with a full Scottish Premiership card, EPL and matches across Europe. I'll be in Perth for our match against Dundee and I was considering backing corners again.
However, the bookies have smartened up and set the corner count over 10.5 which should still land. But it's the match at Easter Road where I'll be focusing my attention as the league's form side Hibs host Steve Clarke's high-flying Kilmarnock.
Like the Wolves vs Man United game, I feel the bookies have got this wrong and are being very generous with their pricing of over 2.5 goals. It should be even money at most, probably odds on, and never as big as 27-20.
Hibs vs Kilmarnock (7.45pm)
It's been a terrific start for new Hibs boss Paul Heckingbottom. Sixteen points from 18 in the league since he joined is a great return, especially given where they were prior to his appointment, and that has secured top-six football, something that looked impossible a few months ago.
They've found their shooting boots and have now scored 2 or more in 5 of their last 6 games. And with the incentive of leapfrogging bitter rivals Hearts, they'll be looking to continue their great run of results.
It won't be easy though as third-placed Kilmarnock roll into the capital after a resounding 5-0 hammering of Hamilton. It's been a tremendous season for Clarke's side and deserve all the plaudits thrown at them.
They looked back to their best on Saturday and I wouldn't put it past them getting a result against a Hibs side they have shared 20 goals in the last 4 meetings.
Hibs have plenty of threat in attack in Marc McNulty, Flo Kamberi and Stevie Mallan and it should be a match where both sides net.
Recommended Bet
- Over 2.5 goals
- 27/20 (Unibet) (NAP)
*********************************************************************************
Aberdeen host Motherwell and the Dons are ridiculously short at 8-13 considering they have won just one of their last 9 home matches. Motherwell are in good shape and have won 4 of the last 7 games between the sides. Again getting good odds for goals and it's worth doubling up with the Hibs game over 1.5 goals.
Recommended Bet
- Hibs vs Kilmarnock/Aberdeen vs Motherwell
- Over 1.5 match goals double
- 21/20 (Boylesports)

Japanese J-League (11 matches KO 11am)
Some Wednesday morning entertainment and a league you don't associate with goals but is worth a couple of quid at massive prices.
- First-half goal in all 11 matches
- 100/1 (Skybet)
- Over 1.5 match goals
- 45/1 (Bet365) – better price at Skybet but you get cashout option here

The double is around even money. Nowhere near 21/10 unfortunately.
Sorry mate – posted it late last night. Should read 21/20
Kilmarnock away form is what would put me off a little….both to score is more my thinking
We lost the game 11 game over 1.5
