Much of the hard work has been done for now by Scotland but there’s still something at stake at Hampden tonight where unbeaten Denmark are the visitors.

Revenge will be in the air in Luxembourg where Ireland will be aiming to finish a disappointing qualifying campaign with a win.

Tonight’s the night for Steve Clarke’s Scotland. A win in Moldova and a World Cup play-off is guaranteed. Simple right? Yes, according to the bookies who rate the Scots as 1/5 chances to win in Chișinău. But that price would be considered short for even the most ardent member of the Tartan Army. The Moldovans prop up Group F, their […]

The thing about the Sack Race is that as soon as a manager ‘wins’ it there’s immediately a new favourite in the frame. After the weekend departures of Daniel Farke and Dean Smith, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (1/2) is top of the market to be next to be relieved of his duties in the Premier League. Those odds don’t look very […]

Third and Fourth in the Premier League meet at the London Stadium in Sky Sports’ Super Sunday match where West Ham welcome Liverpool.

The Manchester Derby sets us up nicely for a cracking day of football in the lunchtime kick-off at Old Trafford. United are a huge 4/1 to win – almost unheard of for the Red Devils at home.

Southampton v Aston Villa is Friday night’s offering from the Premier League and the Saints look a decent bet at odds above evens to win against a struggling Villa.

Leicester and Arsenal kick the weekend off at the King Power Stadium in today’s lunchtime kick-off and it should be an entertaining affair. Neither side are where they’d like to be at this stage of the season, floating around mid-table, but a win for either would take them up in to fifth, even if just for a couple of hours. […]

Friday nights often give some of the lower leagues the chance to shine and tonight it’s the Championship that takes centre stage with Nottingham Forest’s trip to Queen’s Park Rangers live on Sky Sports.

Well done The Bankies! A 1-1 draw with League Two side Elgin City earned Clydebank a Scottish Cup replay on Saturday and kept the dream alive. They didn’t quite manage to deliver the 11/2 Super Single winner for us but they did themselves proud and we’re sure Paul would’ve loved every second of it. He’d have been especially proud to […]
