It's a massive day in the SPFL Premiership as Heart of Midlothian look to open up an eight-point lead over champions Celtic in the title race.

The Jambos have flown out the traps this season under new manager Derek McInnes while Brendan Rodgers looks to be winding down the clock at Parkhead.

The Hoops did play well against Sturm Graz on Thursday but that 2-1 win came at a heavy cost, with key players Cameron Carter-Vickers, Alistair Johnston and Kelechi Iheanacho all being crocked.

Heart of Midlothian vs Celtic top betting tips

With Hearts in such fine form and Celtic looking vulnerable all season, I'm surprised to see the Jambos as big as 9/4 with BOYLE Sports for a statement win.

Nerves might get to the pace-setters but this is an excellent chance for them to make the statement with Rodgers missing so many key players.

If you want to play it a bit safer, Hearts are 20/21 in the one goal ahead market, which pays out if they take the lead at any point.

For a long-odds punt, it could pay to back one of their defenders to score, with Celtic conceding from a corner at Dens at last week.

Stuart Findlay is 10/1 at Bet365 to score a header while Craig Halkett is priced at 14/1. Halkett has already scored five times this season while Findlay is just one goal behind him.

Arsenal vs Crystal Palace

It's a busy day in the Premier League and Arsenal have a test of their title credentials at home to Crystal Palace.

The Eagles went 11 games unbeaten at the start of the season but their form has since dipped, with two defeats and a draw in their last three outings.

Cypriot side Larnaca shocked them in the Conference League on Thursday and that loss was even more surprising given Oliver Glasner picked close to his strongest team.

He may regret doing so ahead of this trip to the Emirates and Arsenal look worthy 4/11 favourites at BOYLE Sports.

It's hard finding value with the Gunners so short but backing them to be winning at half-time and full-time boosts the odds to 11/10.

Eberechi Eze will be desperate to impress against his former club and the Arsenal playmaker could be worth a punt for an assist at 4/1 with BOYLE Sports.

Aston Villa vs Manchester City

Aston Villa were another Premier League side who slipped up in Europe on Thursday, losing 2-1 away to Dutch side Go Ahead Eagles.

That ended their five-game winning run and Villa now have a daunting home game against flying Manchester City.

City's midweek win over Villarreal in the Champions League made it nine games unbeaten and they're 5/6 favourites for this one.

But Villa Park hasn't been a happy hunting ground for them, with Pep Guardiola's side taking just a point from their last three visits.

BTTS has come up in eight of the last nine meetings so I thought it would be shorter than the 4/6 on offer today. Adding on over 2.5 goals boosts the odds to 11/10 at BOYLE Sports.

Villa skipper John McGinn will snap into tackles as usual and he's 13/5 to go into the book.
