DUNDEE and Dunfermline both suffered cup heartache at the weekend but can find a silver lining at Dens tonight in the SPFL Trust Trophy.
This quarter-final tie has been postponed twice but should finally get the go ahead with temperatures on the rise.
Dundee took Premiership St Mirren all the way in the Scottish Cup on Saturday only to suffer a shoot-out defeat.
And it was the same story for League One Dunfermline as they lost on penalties to Partick at Firhill.
I can see this one being tight as well so under 2.5 goals appeals at 21/20 with McBookie while betting against BTTS pays 23/20.
Two of the Scottish Cup ties postponed at the weekend go ahead tonight as Elgin host Drumchapel and Raith visit Linlithgow.
It’s hard to find value in these games with the SPFL sides heavy favourites. Elgin are just 2/7 at McBookie but backing them to win to nil increases the odds to 23/20.
Linlithgow have a better chance of a shock with home advantage but Rovers should still be too strong for them.
Ian Murray’s side are a best 8/15 with BoyleSport but backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time pays 7/5 at the same firm.
The big game down south sees Newcastle visit Southampton in the Carabao Cup semi-final first leg.
Thrills have been in short supply with the Magpies of late and that makes under 2.5 goals appealing at 16/19 with SBK.
- Super singles: BTTS no at Dens (23/20, McBookie), Raith HT-FT (7/5, BoyleSports)
- McBookie bet builder: Combining BTTS no and under 2.5 goals at Southampton pays 108/100.
