It's a rare luxury for Scotland to have qualified for a major tournament with two games to spare but there's still a lot at stake for the Tartan Army in the week ahead.
The Scots are level on points with Spain and could still finish top of Group A but they’d need the Spanish to falter in their final two games against Georgia or Cyprus, whom they play tonight.
Steve Clarke will just be happy to get back to winning ways after three consecutive defeats to European heavyweights, England, France and Spain.
Two wins in their remaining two games would secure Scotland a place in Pot 2 in the draw but they’ve struggled in Georgia previously, losing on their last two visits and with key players like captain Andy Robertson, Aaron Hickey, Kieran Tierney, Che Adams and regular no.1, Angus Gunn all sidelined this could be a tricky one.
But Clarke should have enough quality available to him, especially in the midfield where where McTominay and McGinn have been two of their biggest goal threats.
Spain were the only team to prevent Scotland scoring two or more in Group A and it’s 6/5 that they net at least a couple this evening.
Luxembourg have already beaten Bosnia & Herzegovina, a 2-0 win in Zenica, and are two points ahead of them going in to tonight’s clash, with Liechtenstein still to play. That makes it hard to fathom why the visitors are favourites to win.
Add to the fact that Bosnia & Herzegovina’s win in Liechtenstein last month was their third in 24 on foreign soil, going back five years, their only other two wins coming in Kazakhstan and again in Liechtenstein.
Improving Luxembourg look the value bet at 17/10.
Hungary can book their Euro 2024 place in Sofia against an underperforming Bulgaria who are winless in Group G. A draw will be enough for the Hungarians so be wary backing them at 4/7.
Same can be said for Austria, who, with the pressure off, should win comfortably at Estonia but with little to play are hardly worth the risk on the handicap markets.

Sharks vs Blues
Blues to win 3 way @evens
Despite 3 game loosing streak sharks stayed competitive in all off them but still delivering puck line. Being fan of them of course I’m happy but crazy amount of blocked shots brings only injuries :(. And again we facing playoffs contenders team. Blues always been kind a invisible team somewhere in middle of table, just doing stuff :D and on rare cases pulling off playoffs miracle. Kind a team which win when they need to win and loose when they need to loose. Funny enough in last two seasons we haven’t won Blues loosing by at least 2 goals, I think trend will continue this year also so -1,-2 or 3 looks good option especially with that high odds.
Sharks desperately need a win but we simple don’t have enough power and staying competitive cost us injuries. For us season is pretty much over and main goal is to stay competitive to not loose fans.
Tonight 03:00
Canucks vs Islanders
Quinn Hughes to score @ 5
He is constantly shooting on the net and staying at high point in powerplay. For a defender who’s making average 3-5 shots on goal per game it’s only mater of a time when he scores.
Good luck if you follow.
1goal 2 assists and Quinn Hughes cames in.

Haven’t bet since the weekend due to the international snooze fest.
I am struggling to find a corners angle with the international sides but one bet that looks good to me which should be a void at the very least is
Hungary to beat Bulgaria -1 Asian handicap at 2.25
Bulgaria sit rock bottom of the group having scored just 3 goals in 6 games. Hungary will top the group with a win today.
Good luck
Blimey didn’t see Bulgaria winning. Writing this off as a loss before full time ❎
Georgia v Scotland
Georgia at 23/10 .
Scotland may have qualified with games to spare but they rode their luck in a few of those games .
23/10 for the home team looks good to me .
Also fancy a few corners in this game .
2 + corners each team in each half 11/2
Skybet
Scotland with big absentees at full back and particularly in goal where neither Zander Clark nor Liam Kelly are international class. But most of Scotland’s goals have come from midfielders so they should still carry a threat at the other end. Btts 4/5.
Long shot Georgia to win, btts 5-1
Bulgaria v Hungary is behind closed doors and Bulgaria’s coach has only been in the job about a month. I expect him to set up to keep it tight early on and Hungary to take the opposite approach. Over 1.5 fhg 2/1 (9/2 if you go Hungary only)
If you like Mrfixit tip above for Lux to win, might as well also put on Gedson Rodriguez anytime gs at 13/5.
Sorry: Gerson Rodrigues

Us virgins to score 7-4 SKYBET ** NAP… 🇻🇮
They scored in their last 4 games including netting in a 3-1 defeat in Aruba a month ago
Prediction 1-2
Great odds those!
Double chance is 15/2 also, looks overpriced to me! 🤷🤞
BOL Elvis 👍 cheers
The virgins score just after the break.
Latest score 1-3.
A welcome win after 4 straight losses 😮
Goodnight and well done winners today
Good evening, guys,
Going to try this Skybet Requestabet treble on tonight’s games,
Montenegro vs Lithuania
Over 1.5 match goals and each team 10+ booking points.
Liechtenstein vs Portugal
BTTS – NO and a goal in each half
Slovakia vs Iceland
over 1.5 match goal and each team 10+ booking points.
TREBLE @ 18/5 with Skybet (requestabet up to 10/1)
Good luck with all bets tonight!!!!
Disappointing first half display from Portugal sinks this one,
If the Liechtenstein goalkeeper doesn’t get booked for timewasting
then the game is rigged , he is currently 10/1 with Skybet
Liechtenstein vs Portugal.
Odds of Portugal winning: 1.02
Over 1.5 goals: 1.002
Number of goals scored in first half: that would be precisely ZERO
Oh, and the value of Portugal’s team is probably more than Liechtenstein’s National turnover!
Portugal are a bunch of over-rated whánk spangles 🤣
NAP 4/5🍺 NB 6/5🍺 Longshot 10/1🍺 Winners.
Another good day at the office. I had a couple of shouts for later on tonight one of which has been tipped by another member already so I’ll settle on another from the same competition I really liked

winner!!! 😁😁😁😁😁
Sharks game already tipped, looks very likely that we will have 4 bet winning streak on sharks.
Will be tipping another game for Saturday night later.
Just 2 more bets from me tonight.
Penguins vs Devils midnight
Erick Karlsson to score @4.5
Erick Karlsson to score 2 or more @34
Flames vs Canucks 02:00
Quinn Hughes to score @5
Quinn Hughes to score 2 or more @ 41
To be honest guys these two are proper attacking defenders and playmakers. Very high chance for them to score tonight. They WILL score offten so odds like @ 5 for Hughes and Karlsson to score seems very high as both of them shooting on net 3-5 times per game :D more that any attackers.
It’s worth to keep an eye on them for whole season.
Both has scored in previous game. Karlsson scored 2 few days ago.
Good luck if you follow
But most of Scotland’s goals have come from midfielders so they should still carry a threat at the other end. Btts 4/5. ✅
