Manchester United have won on their last three visits to the Etihad but it is hard to see them avoiding defeat if Manchester City hit top form in this Premier League derby

Southampton are one of the Premier League’s form teams but face a tricky task away to Aston Villa in a game that promises a few thrills

Partick Thistle’s rutted Firhill pitch is making their home games a hard watch so bet against goals when Inverness Caledonian Thistle coming calling in the SPFL Championship
Posted on: 02 Mar 2022
CELTIC and Rangers both dropped points on Sunday and there could be a few more twists as the title race heads down the home straight. The last three slips for Celts have been 0-0 draws against teams defending deep – with one coming in December at St Mirren. The Buddies head for Parkhead tonight and it could be another game […]

DOMESTIC football kicks the Euro action into touch this week and there are some crucial lower-league clashes in the SPFL tonight. Arbroath can move three points clear at the top of the Championship if they win their game in hand at home to Partick Thistle. Both teams have gone four games without a win and have been struggling for goals […]

Chelsea have kept clean sheets in their last three and that solidity should help them avoid an FA Cup shock at Luton Town

NOSTALGIA will hang heavy in the Pittodrie air this afternoon as Sir Alex Ferguson watches Aberdeen take on Dundee United. In Fergie’s time as Dons boss this clash would often have big say in who would win the title as he jousted with another legendary gaffer in the shape of Jim McLean. But today’s clash is all about the battle […]

ARBROATH are beginning to wobble a little as the Championship title race heads down the home straight and only goal difference is now keeping them above Kilmarnock. Dick Campbell’s men still have a game in hand but they have gone three games without a win in league and cup since beating Killie at Gayfield earlier this month. They need to […]

RANGERS stand on the brink of a stunning Euro triumph but Dortmund will fancy their chances tonight if they can grab the first goal at Ibrox. Gers are 3/10 favourites with McBookie to go through after a stunning 4-2 triumph in Germany and Borussia are 12/5 with the same firm. However, the Bundesliga giants are 4/6 favourites for a win […]

Red-hot Mo Salah could make the difference for Liverpool in their Carabao Cup Final with Chelsea and looks great value at 7/4 for a goal
Posted on: 23 Feb 2022
MARK McGHEE came close to pinching a Parkhead point on his debut as Dundee boss and now takes his Dens Park bow as St Mirren come calling tonight. It took a late goal for the Hoops to beat McGhee’s side 3-2 on Sunday and that will give the Dark Blues some belief going into another tough test. St Mirren are […]

Goals have been at a premium in games between Aberdeen and Dundee United so this SPFL Premiership clash should be tight as well
Posted on: 22 Feb 2022
CHELSEA aren’t playing like world champions right now but McBookie still make them red-hot 3/10 favourites for a win against Lille in the Champions League tonight. The Blues followed up their unconvincing World Club Cup triumph by grinding out a 1-0 victory at Crystal Palace on Saturday. Their display was summed up by the fact striker Romelu Lukaku touched the […]

Celtic need to go for it against Bodo/Glimt in the Europa Conference League and that bodes well for goals and corners
Posted on: 20 Feb 2022
We should see goals when Juventus visit Villarreal in the Champions League last 16 but the corner and card markets offer better value
Posted on: 19 Feb 2022
THERE are some tasty games in the Championship today – so long as Storm Eunice doesn’t decimate the fixture card. Allan Johnston couldn’t survive the tempest at Queen of the South and was sacked last weekend after another defeat at Morton left them four points adrift at the bottom. Willie Gibson has taken over on a caretaker basis as player-boss […]

HIBS got back to winning ways in the Scottish Cup last weekend and there were signs that Shaun Maloney’s philosophy was finally starting to make sense. Most people thought the Hibees were the team in biggest danger of a cup shock, myself included, and an upset looked on the cards when they fell behind to an early Arbroath goal at […]

There have been goals galore in meetings between Celtic and Dundee this season but corners and cards look a better option as Mark McGhee takes charge of the Dark Blues for the first time
Posted on: 17 Feb 2022
RANGERS have claimed some impressive Euro scalps in the last few seasons but it would be a major shock if they added Dortmund to their list of victims. The German giants are just 1/4 (Bet365) to knock Gers out of the Europa League and Dortmund are 4/11 with McBookie for a win at home tonight. Top gun Erling Haaland is […]

Manchester City are flying while Tottenham Hotspur are in dismal form so backing the Premier League champions for goals looks a wise option when they face off at the Etihad
Posted on: 15 Feb 2022
Celtic will try to catch Bodo/Glimt cold in this Europa Conference League clash so backing first-half goals looks the best option
Posted on: 15 Feb 2022
ABERDEEN begin life without Stephen Glass tonight and I’m surprised to see them as odds-on favourites for a Pittodrie win over St Johnstone. McBookie price them at just 4/6 and that’s probably because it was dismal away form that led to Glass getting the boot on Sunday. St Johnstone are back at the bottom of the table but their form […]

Liverpool should have too much firepower for Inter Milan in the Champions League, especially with Mo Salah back from Africa Cup of Nations duty

Kylian Mbappe can show why Real Madrid want to sign him by scoring for Paris St-Germain in their Champions League clash in Paris
Posted on: 12 Feb 2022
MANCHESTER UNITED are making heavy weather of chasing down a top-four place and desperately need a win when they host Southampton today. Ralf Rangnick hasn’t really fared much better than Ole Gunnar Solksjaer and also looks set to miss out on a trophy after a shock FA Cup exit to second-tier Middlesbrough. United followed that up by drawing 1-1 at […]
