THE only online bookmaker listing first-scorer prices on all SPFL games are McBookie.com.

It's a great service they provide and we've teamed up with the Scots firm to look at some of the best bets from the Scottish lower leagues. Also, leave your pick of first scorers at the end of this article for a chance to win a £10 free bet with McBookie.com.

You can choose from Premiership, Championship, League One and League Two and one correct entry will be picked at random to win the prize. Quote player, team, his odds and a reason if you like.

Meanwhile, here is McBookie.com's Damian Walker with his Saturday selections.

Dougie Imrie scored just three times from 30 starts last season with St Mirren but has been an instant hit since leaving the Buddies and joining Morton. He has netted four times from 10 starts and is also on the pens – banging in the extra-time winner against Celtic in the League Cup in midweek.

Morton travel to face former Championship favourites Dundee, who have scored just one goal in their last 270 minutes of football, so Imrie could be the man to grab that all-important opener at 9-1 with McBookie.com.

Michael Moffat has netted seven goals in eight matches in all competitions for Ayr this season and the Honest Men travel to second-placed Dunfermline on Saturday. Aside from runaway leaders Rangers, unbeaten Ayr have the tightest defence in the league and Moffat is 13-2 with McBookie.com to grab the opening goal.

David Hopkirk has an amazing goalscoring record during two spells at Annan where he has scored 14 goals in just 25 starts, including four already this season.

Hopkirk’s Annan side travel to Hampden this weekend to face a Queens Park’s squad that is light years away from what it was last season and finally got their first league point last weekend. Hopkirk is 4-1 with McBookie.com to be the first man on the scoresheet.

Montrose’s Bryan Deasley, on loan from Forfar, currently tops the League Two Scorer table on five and has scored 50 per cent of the Gable Endies league goals this season. Montrose beat league favourites Peterhead last weekend and travel to Clyde on Saturday. The win-cast for Deasley to score at any time and Montrose to win pays 23-10 with McBookie.com.

Dumbarton are leaking two goals a game in the Championship and even more in all competitions this season. The Sons travel to face free-scoring Queen of the South and there could be plenty of goals. Derek Lyle’s goals for the Doonhammers have helped fill the void left by Nicky Clark and Lyle already has a hat-trick to his name this season. He could get a second and is 16-1 with McBookie to do just that against Dumbarton.

Remember to post your first-scorer pick for a chance to win a £10 free bet.

    Once again, numerous players come up against their former teams this weekend. More so than not they have a habit of scoring…

    Priced an anytime scorer for a short, a medium and a long odds player

    Peter McDonald of Dundee v Morton 19/20 @ BetVictor

    Iain Vigurs of Motherwell v Ross County 3/1 @ Ladbrokes

    Owain Tudor Jones of Hibs v Inverness 9/1 @ Coral

    Perhaps a tad ambitious but the treble pays almost 62/1 @ Coral

    Over at Rugby Park sees a former Old Firm player come up against Celtic once again. That player is Kris Boyd. The 5/1 on offer from Skybet to score at anytime looks good but just checked there and he is now 4/1 @ Skybet . 11/1 for first goal too. Now, ok i am bearing in mind he has scored only one more goal than you or i whilst playing with Rangers against Celtic BUT i wonder whom would take the penalty for Klmarnock should they get one…

    Lyle is 7/2. Thought 16/1 was massive.

    I’ll take Mickael Antoine-Curier at 9/2
