There wasnt much to write home about an a fairly dull pre-Christmas Wednesday.
Under a new manager, Ross County battled hard but Celtic continued their resurgence with another win. Now on an unbeaten in four across all competitions. Elsewhere Motherwell vs Aberdeen was the only goalless game in the Premiership. It also beat my Super Single of Aberdeen to Win. Rangers powered on with a three goal win at St Johnstone so well done to anyone that got on the 6/5 for a Gers win to nil.
Heading to Goodison Park where it looked like another goalless draw would be played out before United forward Cavani and midfielder Martial scored two late goals securing qualification for the Semi-Final of the Carabao Cup alongside Spurs who beat Stoke 3-1.
Thursday Football Tips
Thursday's Football doesn't have much on offer. They aren't any games in any of the top leagues with only a couple of matches from Turkey to choose from. Due to the lack of football, I won't be sharing any tips but I doubt that will stop our determined members from finding some fancies from some corners of the world.

We now have to wait until Boxing Day for an action-packed card of Scottish and English Football. Our team has already written early previews for some of the matches which you can read here;
But as ever, please post your football tips for today in the comments section below and good luck with your bets.

nothing from me for the next few days, so ive had a wee look ahead to monday and the start of the Australian A league season. be interesting to see how it pans out this year, most teams have lost their overseas “stars” and have tried replacing them with local talent, there are still a few new signings from abroad but only time will tell if they are in the same class as the likes of le fondre, milenusic, hooper etc. Couple of notable ones (especially if you have knowledge of the british game) are graham dorrans, rudy gestede, and tomer hemed. Been a high turnover of players for most teams, and theres a new team this year as well, so if your having a pop at this league the advice in the early stages (as with any league) is to go canny. For me teams to look out for to have a good season this year will be sydney (as always) perth, western utd, western sydney wanderers and melboure victory. the first 3 have kept the majority of their squads together and the last 2 look as if they have made good signings on paper.
The first match features one of those teams mentioned and is western united v adelaide, and i fancy the home men to take this, as i mentioned they have kept most of their squad together and made it to the playoffs last season in what was their inaugural season and they will be looking to push on again. The adelaide squad looks very different from last season, a lot of their first team regulars are gone and the guys brought in are an unknown quantity and it could take them a few games to gel, so with this in mind its the home men for me.

JORGE WILSTERMANN VS. ORIENTE PETROLERO (4.00pm)
Jorge aren’t in the best of shape and have a tendency to concede against today’s opponents – this one may not be a high scorer but there’s a good chance of corners and both teams finding the net.
I’ve put together a couple of bets to reflect the above; the first has solid claims whilst the second is a speculative punt but you never know 😉

Skybet up to their old tricks again or they have rehired their incompetent price fixer.
Best price I can see elsewhere is 4-7 😳
Skybet have btts on this at 8-13 and potosi to score at 8-11 😂
Potosi scored in 5 of last 6 h2h in last 2 years.
Potosi scored in 7 of last 8 away games.
Potosi scored in 15 of last 16 games home and away.

NFL on Christmas Day is the perfect present
Last week I went 4-4 for my NFL bets for a profit thanks to a couple of odds against touchdown scorers, this week the stronger bets go on Sunday but there are still some good bets for Christmas Day and Boxing Day
25/12/20
Minnesota Vikings at New Orleans Saints (21:30)
EMMANUEL SANDERS over 58.5 receiving yards
5/6 bet365 william hill
EMMANUEL SANDERS to score a touchdown
6/4 betfred
Emmanuel Sanders has only gone over this total 4 times from 12 games this season but he did get 76 receiving yards from 4 receptions against the Chiefs last week, this should see him being targeted more this week, one stat worth noting is that when Drew Brees plays and Michael Thomas is out, Emmanuel Sanders has had 365 receiving yards in 5 games which averages 73 yards per game
Week 2 – 18 yards from 1 reception
Week 3 – 56 yards from 4 receptions
Week 4 – 93 yards from 6 receptions
Week 5 – 122 yards from 12 receptions
Week 15 – 76 yards from 4 receptions
Last weeks game against Kansas City was a bad matchup for Sanders so it says a lot that he still managed to get 76 yards, this week against Minnesota Sanders should find things easier especially if being matched with Chris Jones who has seen wide receivers rack up 287 yards against him
********************
26/12/20
Tampa Bay Buccaneers at Detroit Lions (18:00)
MARVIN JONES JR over 64.5 receiving yards
5/6 paddy power
MARVIN JONES JR to score a touchdown
7/5 paddy power
When going with player prop bets it’s about getting on players who have good matchups and circumstances favouring them, with Marvin Jones we have a wide receiver who should see a lot of the ball with Kenny Golladay out, Jones should be matched with Carlton Davis who has allowed 783 yards this season, only one other cornerback has allowed more yards than that,
Marvin Jones has had two 100+ yard games in his last three games
112 yards from 10 receptions against Tennessee and 116 yards from 8 receptions against Chicago, Jones has also scored 6 touchdowns in his last 8 games
