DUNFERMLINE are on track for a quickfire return to the Championship and could be a tough nut to crack for Dundee in the Challenge Cup quarter-finals tonight.
The Pars were my tip for the League One title and they’re four points clear with a couple of games in hand.
Dundee are still in the mix for top spot in the second tier but have stumbled a little, going two games without a win.
Dunfermline’s success has been built on a solid defence so I’m going for under 2.5 strikes at 5/4 with McBookie. Betting against BTTS also pays a decent 6/5 with the same firm.
Hamilton sit bottom of the Championship but host a Clyde side in even worse form.
The Bully Wee needed penalties to beat Elgin in the last round and that’s their only win in 15 matches.
I can see Accies having too much quality for the League One strugglers and Hamilton -1 in the handicap pays 19/10 at McBookie.
Queen of the South host Kelty in tonight’s other tie as Marvin Bartley takes charge for the first time.
I fancy him to get off to a winning start and that bet pays 11/10 with BetVictor.
There are two League Cup quarter-finals down south as Newcastle take on Leicester and Charlton head to Old Trafford.
We should see goals in both games and a double on over 2.5 strikes pays 142/100 at SBK.
- Super singles: Under 2.5 goals at Dens (5/4, McBookie), Queens to win (11/10, BetVictor).
- McBookie bet builder: Combining a Hamilton win with over 1.5 goals pays evens.
