THE SPFL spotlight falls on the lower leagues this weekend and top billing goes to some fascinating Championship battles. The second tier is usually Scotland’s most competitive division and this season has proved no different, with shock troops Arbroath giving title favourites Kilmarnock a run for their money in a thrilling title race. For a while it looked like Partick […]

Goals were on the menu in Poland’s World Cup qualifiers and this friendly with Scotland also promises entertainment with Steve Clarke’s men in good form

There should be goals as Partick Thistle and Dunfermline both chase a crucial three points and Steven Lawless may come back to haunt his old club
Posted on: 19 Mar 2022
THERE’S just three games left before the Premiership split and the middle of the table is more tightly packed than the velvet trousers of someone having a mid-life crisis. Just five points separate fourth-placed Hibs from Aberdeen in 10th and eight teams have a genuine chance of claiming a European slot for next season. It makes for a thrilling conclusion […]

KILMARNOCK are now in the box seat for the Championship title and McBookie make them 1/2 hot favourites to finish top of the pile. But it’s still tight at the summit and one slip could open the door for Arbroath and Partick Thistle. It would be surprise if that stumble came today when struggling Queen of the South head to […]

Nottingham Forest have been giant killers in this season’s FA Cup but Quadruple-chasing Liverpool should have too much class for them in the quarter-finals
Posted on: 17 Mar 2022
Crystal Palace should have too much for struggling Everton in the FA Cup but it could be tight so bet on cards instead of goals
Posted on: 17 Mar 2022
Celtic should see off Ross County in the SPFL Premiership and the best value is to be found in the card and corner markets
Posted on: 15 Mar 2022
CRISTIANO RONALDO rescued Manchester United at the weekend and fans will now be hoping he can fire them into the Champions League quarter-final. But Ronaldo’s weekend hat-trick against Spurs disguised another poor team performance so Atletico Madrid will fancy their chances at Old Trafford tonight. The last-16 tie is balanced at 1-1 but Atletico were by far the better team […]

Galatasaray frustrated Barcelona at the Nou Camp so the second leg of their Europa League clash could be a game of patience, with corners looking the wisest bet
Posted on: 15 Mar 2022
IT has been a disappointing season for Leicester City but they still have the chance to end it on a high by winning the inaugural UEFA Europa Conference League. A 2-0 victory over Rennes at the King Power has the Foxes in the driving seat for a place in the quarter-finals and they are McBookie’s 7/2 favourites to lift the […]

Chelsea looked a cut above Lille in the first leg of their Champions League last 16 so they look good value for another victory in France
Posted on: 14 Mar 2022
Sebastian Haller is odds-on to score for Ajax in their Champions League showdown with Benfica but Dusan Tadic is in just as deadly form and appeals at a bigger price
Posted on: 12 Mar 2022
IT’S a long weekend for the Scottish Cup and some of the quarter-finals could go easily drag on into extra time and penalties. We have to wait until tonight for the action to get underway as Hearts host St Mirren. The Jambos have won all three meetings so far this season and McBookie make them 4/11 hot favourites to take […]

THE Championship title chase has become a three-horse race with Partick Thistle grinding out two Firhill wins to put pressure on Killie and Arbroath. But the Jags are back on the road today and face a tough task at Cappielow against a Morton who beat them in Glasgow just a fortnight ago. Dougie Imrie has moved Ton towards mid-table but […]

Celtic needed a late goal to break the deadlock when they last faced Dundee United but this Scottish Cup quarter-final at Tannadice should deliver more goals
Posted on: 10 Mar 2022
Motherwell and Hibernian are both low in confidence so don’t expect goals galore in what promises to be a tight and tense Scottish Cup quarter-final
Posted on: 10 Mar 2022
The half-time draw has come up in every St Mirren game since Stephen Robinson took charge and looks the shout once more when they take on Hearts in the Scottish Cup quarter-final
Posted on: 09 Mar 2022
MARK McGHEE and Stephen Robinson are still waiting for their first wins since returning to a Premiership dugout so the stakes are high when Dundee host St Mirren tonight. Dens boss McGhee claimed a deserved draw against old club Motherwell at the weekend and has now collected two points from his first four games. But his former Fir Park assistant […]

Don’t expect a lot of goals when West Ham United face Sevilla in the Europa League but the Spanish side should just have enough class to edge this first-leg clash
Posted on: 08 Mar 2022
PARTICK THISTLE can fire themselves right into the mix for the Championship title if they grind out another Firhill win tonight. The Jags six nine points behind Arbroath and eight adrift of Kilmarnock but this clash with Queen of the South is one of two games in hand. I bet against goals on Friday and it paid off as Thistle […]

IT took a late goal to separate Paris St-Germain and Real Madrid in the first leg of their Champions League last-16 tie and the Bernabeu return could be tight again
Posted on: 07 Mar 2022
Inter Milan need to go for it at Anfield as they bid to overturn Liverpool’s 2-0 lead in this Champions League clash so it bodes well for goals
Posted on: 05 Mar 2022
We’re coming to the business end of the season and there’s still everything to play for in the Premiership with all 12 teams fighting for something. Celtic still lead the way but they face bogey team Livingston tomorrow at the Tony Macaroni and Rangers will be out to pile on the pressure today by beating Aberdeen at Ibrox to move […]
Posted on: 05 Mar 2022
ARBROATH continue to top the Championship against the odds but the lead is now just a single point as Kilmarnock pile on the pressure. Dick Campbell’s leaders have drawn their last four league games and badly need to get back to winning ways when Dunfermline come calling today. And the omens are good for the Red Lichties as they have […]
