St Mirren and Kilmarnock both need to produce something special in Norway tonight to keep their hopes alive in UEFA Conference League qualifying.
Scottish clubs have rarely made it past this stage in recent years and the bookies are banking on that sorry run continuing tonight.
St Mirren were outsiders against in-form Brann before a ball was kicked and they were rather fortunate to escape with a 1-1 draw in Paisley after Toyosi Olusanya popped up with a last-gasp equaliser.
Brann dominated possession in the first leg and looked like a side who were riding high halfway through their domestic season.
The Buddies are still getting up to speed and head to Norway off the back of a 3-1 loss at Aberdeen on Sunday. So it's hard to see Stephen Robinson's men upsetting the odds in Bergen.

Brann v St Mirren top betting tips
Brann dominated possession in the first leg so I'd imagine they will have most of the pressure tonight. St Mirren rarely threatened until their late equaliser so a home win to nil looks worth a punt at 19/20 with Betfred.
We only saw seven corners in the first leg, with four of them going to Brann. So I'm surprised to see under 11 corners as big as 11/10 with Bet365 and that could be worth a punt based on how things panned out in Paisley.
Cards are another good option after the Buddies picked up six yellows last week. Shaun Rooney was booked in the weekend loss at Pittodrie and is 15/8 at Bet365 to fall foul of the ref again.
Tromso v Kilmarnock top tips
Kilmarnock looked to have an easier tie against a Tromso side hovering just above the drop zone in Norway's top flight, especially when Kyle Vassell fired them into an early lead at Rugby Park.
But they failed to build on that superb start and needed a late equaliser from sub Bobby Wales to salvage a 2-2 draw. That result has left Tromso as heavy favourites to qualify at just 1/4, with the Buddies outsiders at 11/4.
Morale will be low in the Kilmarnock ranks after they lost 3-0 at home to St Johnstone on Sunday, although an early red card played a big part in that heavy defeat.
We only saw two yellows in the first leg but this clash could be much more fiery with Kilmarnock fighting for their lives. Bet365 price Killie stopper Stuart Findlay at 11/2 to go in the book and that price looks pretty generous for a central defender.
Shamrock Rovers v NK Celje top tips
It could be a memorable night for Shamrock Rovers as they bid to dump Celje and book a place in the Europa League play-off round.
The Irish champions will fancy their chances after emerging from the first leg in Slovenia with a creditable 1-0 defeat.
But Betfred still make Celje their 2/9 hot favourites to qualify, with Shamrock Rovers 3/1 outsiders.
With just a one-goal deficit I can't see the Irish side going gung-ho so this could be a cagey and nervy game. Backing most goals to come in the second half looks the shout here at 21/20.
Aljosa Matko is on four goals already this term for NK Celje so he looks a decent price at 15/8 for anytime scorer.
Thursday's Football Tips: Super singles
- Under 11 corners in Brann v St Mirren 11/10 Bet365

Cercle Brugge vs Molde
First leg was 0-3 to Molde.
Lots of corners first leg however I’m shocked to see Skybet offering 10/11 for both teams to get a corner in each half.
Brugge will have to come out and go for it however Molde will hit on counter and look to kill the tie.

Regarding my teams to hit the woodwork Madrid v Atalanta Unibet have paid out on all bets as WINNERS,
As far as I was aware Atalanta did not hit the woodwork . A few other punters were on the same bet ,you guys must have been paid out as well – kf have you checked your account ?
Just seen your post kf .Good news 😊
I certainly didn’t see them hit it, but Godfrey’s effort late on went close.
De Roon hit the crossbar on 25mins Cocker – happy days
Yeah master but on the bbc live feed it did not say Atalanta hit the woodwork .
Aint complaining tho 😀

Combo would have landed in the opening leg which Ajax secured a 1-0 win. Panathinakos will need to chase the game. They landed five yellows in first fixture. Good luck
