SOME bookies have already paid out on Louis van Gaal to win the sack race – and he could be packing his bags tonight. The under-fire Man United boss needs goals and a good display probably even more than the points as they face up to Chelsea at Old Trafford. Van Gaal is on the brink after four defeats in […]

TIS the season to be jolly – unless you’re Alan Stubbs and Mark Warburton. The rival Championship gaffers have been involved in a verbal tug of war that’s becoming more boring to watch than Man United. They’ve talked the talk for weeks – now can they walk the walk? There’s no doubt today’s tussle at Ibrox is massive after Hibs battled […]

IT’S a big weekend in the Scottish Premiership with Aberdeen hoping to go top on Saturday and Celtic out to return to the perch on Sunday. Celtic lead the Dons by one point are 1-10 with Ladbrokes to be top on New Year’s day with Aberdeen 11-2. Thanks to old boss Mark McGhee’s help last week Aberdeen should hit the summit […]

IT’S the start of a packed period of football in England and one of the games of the day is Liverpool v Leicester. In my opinion bookies have underestimated the Foxes and while I’m sorely tempted by 3-1 on the Premier League leaders the best advice is to keep the draw on side and go with Claudio Ranieri’s men not […]

ABERDEEN have the chance to move top of the Premiership and pile the pressure on Celtic ahead of their trip to Hearts on Sunday.The Dons have been in magnificent form and should beat Inverness at home on Saturday. As you look at your Scottish picks here are some stats-based suggestions from William Hill’s Owen Scott – and remember they are […]

IT’S been the strangest of Premier League seasons and Leicester look the only side who want to win it. That still seems like an impossible dream but Claudio Ranieri’s side have been cut to 12-1 at bet365 to take the title and are now evens to finish in the top four and claim a Champions League spot. Arsenal are Leicester’s […]

WE are getting towards the conclusion of round one with three more nights of top tungsten and could be a better night for maximums. With the likes of Michael Smith and Robert Thornton on the coupon, the most 180s for the night in the event there is a specials coupon, we anticipate Thornton to be the narrow favourite with Smith […]

TWO of Europe’s most in-form strikers will be in opposition at Goodison Park at lunchtime and Romelu Lukaku, who has scored in six consecutive Premier League games is 20-1 to match the previous record of 10 by Ruud van Nistelrooy and 66-1 to equal Jamie Vardy’s tally of 11. Vardy, who ended his one-game drought against champions Chelsea on Monday, […]

ALL the talk in Scotland this week has centred on league reconstruction but both Rangers and Hibs insist they want to win promotion to the Premiership and not be handed a free pass. As the race for the title hots up McBookie.com are offering 2-1 both Rangers and Hibs will be playing in the Premiership next season and 4-11 one of them […]

DESMOND’S keen to find a winner after a couple of losers and has identified two sides he likes. He says: “After a couple of disappointing posts I’m hoping to land a nice double on Saturday. First up are a Nottingham Forest side on a decent run and with eight goals scored in their last four home games. “I like the look of […]

IT looks like Man City will be England’s last survivors in the Champions League after the draw handed tough ties to Arsenal and Chelsea. The Gunners paid for not winning their group by being paired with holders Barcelona while Chelsea suffered some bad luck by being drawn against best of the non-seeds in Zlatan Ibrahimovic’s French champions. Chelsea have been […]

I TENTATIVELY tipped Bournemouth to beat Man Utd on Saturday and positively backed them not to lose at a decent price. Chelsea fell victim to the Cherries the previous week and bid to bounce back at a Leicester side who need a point to return to the top of the table. It’s being billed as Claudio Ranieri v Jose Mourinho after […]

IT’S not an easy card in England this weekend. In the Premiership there are some tough looking games but one stands out from a betting viewpoint. Man City v Swansea sees two sides at the opposite end of the happy spectrum meet. Sergio Aguero and Vincent Kompany once again sit it out but City showed they can without them as they […]

IT’S the final round of the Europa League groups with 16 teams through to the last 32 and eight more places up for grabs. Here’s an at-a-glance look at the sides who have made it and those still fighting to qualify. Group A Molde are through and Fenerbahce need a point at home to Celtic to qualify ahead of Ajax. […]

CELTIC are out of the Europa League but for many punters they have been this season’s “go-to team”. All five of their Group A games have gone over 2.5 goals and in all five matches both teams have netted. Unfortunately for Celtic giving away cheap goals has been a constant and despite playing in spells they’ve given away some cheap […]

I’VE been highlighting this match for four days – ever since Liverpool blew away Southampton 6-1 to reach the last four of the Capital One Cup. They could have scored 10 and could have netted eight at Man City and there is serious proof Jurgen Klopp could push his exciting side into a title battle. A sixth victory in a […]

FOR me the biggest betting opportunity of the weekend is at Newcastle tomorrow with Liverpool the visitors. I put up a couple of Super Singles on Wednesday after Jurgen Klopp’s men had won 6-1 at Southampton and of course the prices have dropped – I’ll post a preview of that game tomorrow. There are seven matches to look at today […]

DESMOND is on a good run with three winners out of four and is showing a substantial profit. He’s hoping to make it another good weekend and is going for two singles and a double. Desmond says: “Gents, two teams I like the look of on Saturday are Burnley and Halifax. First up are a Burnley side undefeated in their […]

ALL six Scottish Premiership matches take place on Saturday with Dundee v Aberdeeen live on TV at 12.30pm. It promises to be a busy day in Scotland and in my Record column on Saturday I’m talking up the possibility of all six top-flight games seeing both scoring for the second weekend in a row. The one that worries me most […]

NOT much happening in the last tournaments of the year on both sides of the Atlantic. In Sun City, South Africa we have the Nedbank Challenge with a 30-man field and over the Atlantic we have the Hero World Challenge in the Bahamas with only 18 invited players. So it should be easy pickings (famous last words). The Gary Player […]

BOOKIES reckoned only four teams could win the Scottish Cup – and two of them were paired in the fourth-round draw. Tie of the round features Hearts v Aberdeen while Celtic travel to Stranraer and Rangers face Cowdenbeath or Arbroath at home. So no worries for the Old Firm but will it be the Jambos or Aberdeen? The Dons won […]

FOR the last couple of weeks I’ve been experimenting with teams to score bets. There is no doubt in my mind this market is the easiest to win on but possibly not the most profitable if that makes sense. The problem being many teams are priced extremely short so either you need to put a lot of sides together or […]

RANGERS now know they’re in a title race – although how long it lasts is anyone’s guess. Hibs have drawn level with the Ibrox men at the top of the Championship but need to fend off suitors of the likes of Jason Cummings when the transfer window opens. And if Rangers do business of their own by signing a couple […]

ALL regulars to the site know in general games in the Dutch second tier produce goals. Some people blindly back both to score or/and overs in all games in a bid to land a decent accumulator. In my experience there’s always one that will beat you – but which one do you avoid? These matches tend to be played on […]
