THE early Premier League game features Swansea v Liverpool and I like the visitors to win with both scoring – as was the case when Man City visited the Liberty last weekend. If Liverpool are serious about a title tilt these are games they must win but they are short at 9-20 with McBookie. Look at Liverpool and both to […]

IT’S been a long time coming, well it seems like it, but now it’s time for the European Ryder Cup team to step up to the plate at Hazeltine and bring the trophy home. Davis Love doesn’t seemed to have tricked up the Hazeltine course although the greens are small and will probably run around 13 on the stimpmeter. The […]

BOOKIES have priced up tonight’s Motherwell-Hearts games as if the Jambos were at home. Robbie Neilson’s side are odds on – McBookie are best at 37-40 – and it feels wrong even though they don’t get it wrong too often. Hearts haven’t won at Fir Park since 2010 – losing three of the last four – and face a side […]

CELTIC were undone by one Argentine in their Champions League opener and could be hurt by another tonight. For Lionel Messi read Sergio Aguero and the Man City star rolls up at Parkhead having fired in five in his last two matches. He bagged a hat-trick against Borussia Monchengladbach and netted a double at Swansea at the weekend. Brendan Rodgers […]

BETTER late than never they say. Lockuptipster is back with his best picks as the darts return in the shape of the Champions League of Darts. Sorry for posting them late, hopefully still time to get in on the action. The Champions League of Darts makes its debut to our screens but also as a first for the BBC in […]

ANYONE fancy Celtic for the Treble after being paired with Rangers in the Betfred Cup semis? Scottish bookmakers McBookie.com are offering 9-2 Celtic will win all the domestic trophies with Rangers 66-1. McBookie spokesman Paul Petrie said: “Despite hammering Rangers recently this is still the hardest tie for Celtic and we have pushed them out slightly to win all three trophies.” After […]

LAST season Man City launched the Premier League campaign with five wins and most people handed them the title – except Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri who had other ideas. It’s been a repeat a year on – the difference is Pep Guardiola is in charge and Ranieri’s concentrating on the Champions League! City are odds on for the title and […]

THIS is the 16th time the East Lake Golf Club in Atlanta has hosted the Tour Championship, 10 of those as the final of FedEx Cup play-offs. With $10million up for grabs for the FedEx champion there is a lot to play for. East Lake has increased in length to 7385 yards, which is second longest in all par 70s in […]

THE Porsche European Open takes place at the Bernhard Langer-designed Beckenbauer Course at the Hartl Golf Resort, Bad Griesbach, in Germany. The course runs beside the River Rott and of course water comes into play frequently throughout the round. Also this week there has been a lot of rain in that area and conditions could be quite wet underfoot. Because of […]

CELTIC struggled past Alloa in the Betfred Cup to book a semi-final slot alongside Rangers and Morton. An Old Firm semi-final or final is a possibility but Aberdeen and St Johnstone will be hoping do something to stop the latter happening. The final quarter-final is the toughest to call with both sides capable of beating each other. The Dons have […]

THERE’S no doubt Brendan Rodgers will be eyeing up a treble but at the same time will have one eye on next week’s Champions League tie with Man City. He must have been delighted to be handed a home Betfred Cup clash with League One Alloa and while everyone thought he’d rotate his line-up only Scott Sinclair and keeper Dorus […]

RANGERS face a test of nerve tonight when Queen of the South visit Ibrox in the Betfred Cup. All eyes will be on Mark Warburton’s men as they aim to return to winning ways after a 0-0 home draw with Ross County followed a 5-1 Old Firm loss. Queens by contrast have won in a row in all competitions and have […]

MY strongest antepost tip was Newcastle so I was worried when they started with two defeats in the Championship. But boss Rafael Benitez didn’t panic and he and his players have adjusted quickly to life outside the top flight by reeling off five wins in a row. The best display came in midweek when they thrilled the Toon Army by […]

REQUESTABET has been mentioned by a few punters in recent weeks with the likes of Craig Alves and Harry Baines getting involved. The concept is you come up with your own bet and ask for a price. Skybet then post some of them on their site and take bets. One lucky SkyBet punter was celebrating for the second time in […]

MAN UNITED would prefer to be dining with the big boys in the Champions League but instead Jose Mourinho finds himself languishing in no man’s land. It’s where no Man United fans wants to be except possibly young Marcus Rashford. The England Under-21 star could be given his chance to shine with the likes of Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Paul Pogba and […]

WHAT a weekend that was. Two firsts (18-1 and 10-1) and a T4 (50-1) for my picks gave me about a 60pts profit and hopefully I can continue this week. With half the Ryder Cup team teeing up for the Italian Open at Golf Club Milano it will give us a chance to see how the guys who are going to Hazeltine […]

REGULAR visitors to the site will have noticed my recent Masterclasses have focused on Spread Betting and in particular how to spread bet on football. It’s an area that’s interested me for a while but I must confess to not knowing too much about it. Now I’ve spent some time researching it, getting my head around it and hopefully explaining […]

IT took Celtic six games and Man City two to qualify for the Champions League and they landed in a tough section alongside Barcelona and Monchengladbach in Group C. Celtic face the toughest of starts in Spain while City host the Germans on matchday one. Brendan Rodgers’ men passed a huge test on Saturday – now they face an even […]

NOT for the first time Ace Venturer bashed the bookies with top tipping on the golf both sides of the Atlantic. He tipped Joost Luiten at 18-1 to win the KLM Open and doubled up with his old favourite Dustin Johnston to triumph in the BMW International at 10-1. And it could have been even better. His second-choice pick Scott Hend […]

THERE’S only one game in town today – OK two if you’re a Man Utd or City fans – and let’s hope we’re talking about the football and nothing else after both big derbies. Although there’s as much chance of that as Donald Trump booking a holiday to Mexico. From a betting viewpoint predicting the result of Celtic v Rangers games are […]

JACK WILSHERE will hope to steal some of the thunder from the Manchester derby by shining on his Bournemouth debut. Premier League clubs splashed out a hideous £1billion in the transfer window but one of the best pieces of business could be a free. An hour or so after hostilities are ended at Old Trafford Wilshere will attempt to prove […]

THERE are other games in Scotland today apart from Celtic v Rangers although it would be easy to forget. Aberdeen haven’t got off to the best of starts but I fancy them at 5-6 with William to beat Inverness at home although they have a poor record against the Highlanders. Jonny Hayes returns for the Dons and that’s a massive […]

JOEY BARTON is 8-1 favourite with McBookie.com to pick up the first card in the Celtic v Rangers match on Saturday. He is followed in the betting by Andy Halliday and Scott Brown on 10-1. The Scouse midfielder is 6-5 to be booked on his Old Firm debut. Paul Petrie, McBookie.com spokesman, said: “Barton has done a lot of talking […]
