There's a re-run of the Scottish Cup Final today as Celtic head to Aberdeen on matchday two in the SPFL Premiership.

The Dons ended a 35-year wait to lift the trophy when they beat the Hoops in a shoot-out at Hampden after a 1-1 draw.

That loss stopped Brendan Rodgers from making history by claiming his third Treble as Celtic boss so he will be out for revenge at Pittodrie.

Aberdeen vs Celtic top betting tips

Thelin changed his tactics at Hampden after copping some heavy beatings from Celtic earlier in the season and parking the bus paid off.

He will also have noted how the Hoops struggled to break down St Mirren's five man defence last weekend, with only a late Luke McCowan goal getting the job done.

So I've a feeling the Aberdeen boss might try to frustrate the champions again, which makes betting against goals a decent option. BTTS no pays a decent 6/5 at BoyleSports while under 2.5 goals is a bit bigger at 8/5.

For a decent long-odds option, young Dons stopper Jack Milne is 5/1 at Bet365 to be carded. He was over-eager in his challenges in Monday's 2-0 loss to Hearts and committed plenty of fouls.

Leicester City vs Sheffield Wednesday

It has been a harrowing summer for Sheffield Wenesday fans and it could get ugly for the Owls when they kick off the Championship season against relegated Leicester City.

This fixture was in doubt last week after Wednesday's players boycotted a pre-season friendly in protest at late payment of wages. That summoned up the chaos behind the scenes at Hillsborough and things aren't much better on the pitch with boss Danny Rohl quitting.

Henrik Pedersen has picked up a poisoned chalice and somehow has to rally a dispirited squad for this trip to the King Power Stadium.

The Foxes are also under new management with Marti Cifuentes replacing Ruud van Nistelrooy but BoyleSports make them 1/8 hot favourites, with Wednesday 18/1 rank outsiders.

At those kind of prices, the best value for punters comes in the player markets. Bilal El Khannous is being courted by Premier League clubs and the playmaker is 11/10 at BoyleSports for anytime scorer.

Abdul Fatawu's return from a long-term injury is a big boost for Cifutentes and the Leicester winger is 2/1 at Betfred for an assist today.

Crystal Palace vs Liverpool

It will be an emotional day at Wembley as Liverpool contest the Community Shield with Crystal Palace in the traditional curtain raiser to the Premier League season.

The Reds are still mourning the death of Diogo Jota and there will be more tributes to the Portuguese forward at Wembley.

It will be interesting to see if the tragedy affects Liverpool's title defence but Arne Slot's side have been looking pretty slick in pre-season friendlies.

All eyes will be on big-money buy Florian Wirtz and the German will be out to put on a show at the home of English football.

Wirtz is 2/1 at BoyleSports for a goal while Bet365 offer a tempting 9/4 on the playmaker having a shot on target from outside the box.

Palace midfielder Adam Wharton is always in the thick of the action and he looks good at 5/2 with Bet365 for over 1.5 fouls.

Sunday's Super Singles

  • BTTS no in Aberdeen v Celtic 6/5 BoyleSports
  • Abdul Fatawu assist 2/1 Befred
  • Adam Wharton over 1.5 fouls 5/2 Bet365.

Long shot
