Quote player's club and first-scorer price with McBookie – Scottish games only – for a chance to win.

This is the final week of the contest so thanks to everyone who has been playing and well done to all the winners.

Here is Damian with this weekend's selections.

He says: I tipped Annan as a massive price of 16-5 last weekend but sadly couldn’t find a scorer to go with their win.

“That was the Galabankies' fifth win in a row and it was quickly followed a few days later with their sixth as they beat Clyde 1-0 in the first leg of the League One play-off final.

“And there was more good news prior to that game for Annan fans when coach Peter Murphy penned a new two-year deal to keep him at the club until 2021.

“Things could have been a little different in midweek had Clyde striker David Goodwillie not put his first-half penalty wide of the post when the score was still 0-0. That said Annan have still won 13 of their last 16 games and eight of their last nine, drawing the other.

“With that background there is no way Clyde should be odds on in my opinion. I’d have them favourites but odds against so 13-5 about Annan does not seem to take into account their great end-of-the-season form.

“I’m going to stick with Aidan Smith for the first goal at 7-1 with McBookie.

“In the Premiership the race to avoid the relegation play-off spot has gone down to the last game and Hamilton, who had looked as though they would escape, are now just a point above St Mirren.

“The Accies have a really tough game at home to St Johnstone who have amassed 22 points more than them and won seven times on the road in the league.

“Under normal circumstances there is no way Accies would be as short as 7-4 which makes the 8-5 available for the Perth Saints look very tempting, especially as they have shown no signs of easing off judging by their 2-0 win over Motherwell last Saturday.

“Striker Callum Hendry returned to St Johnstone from a loan spell at Brechin at the end of January and has recently bagged goals in both 2-0 wins over Dundee. Hendry is 9-2 with McBookie to score the game’s first goal and heap more pressure on the Accies.

“I thought Queen of the South could have doubled their win over Raith in midweek but for some missed opportunities. I fully expect them to win again at home and odds of 8-11 look extremely fair, even allowing for their two-goal first-leg advantage.

“I expect them to keep their foot on the gas and Mr Goals Stephen Dobbie to grab the opener at 2-1 with McBookie.
