IT was a good day on the site for anyone who concentrates on goals bets. Of the five btts games I tipped four were winners, Greg Browning’s over 2.5 goals treble won, Desmond’s 2+ double came in and Scott Allott posted a European both to score treble winner. It does seems it’s easier to predict winners but you can’t get […]

I CALLED it pretty much spot on when Celtic hosted Ajax in midweek and hope to get it right when they visit Inverness at Sunday lunchtime. Celtic are no bigger than 1-3 and that’s too short for me on a ground where they’ve had plenty of problems in the past. Their last two visits have finished 0-1 and 1-1 and […]

THERE are four English Premier League games on Sunday with much of the focus on Spurs v Chelsea. All last week up until Thursday I was planning to back Spurs to beat Chelsea but now I’m not sure. I expected, and manager Mauricio Pochettini suggested as much, Spurs to field pretty much a reserve team against Qarabag in midweek. It […]

JAMIE VARDY will hog the headlines today if he beats 10 in a row. I tipped the Leicester goal king last week to equal Ruud van Nistelrooy’s record of scoring in successive league games but can he beat it tonight? As fate would have it the England star comes up against van Nistelrooy’s former Man United side and faces a defence […]

BRITAIN are no bigger than 1-4 with BetVictor to beat Belgium and win the Davis Cup Final in Ghent. The action starts at 12.30pm with Belgium No.1 David Goffin 1-6 with William Hill to beat debut boy Kyle Edmund on the Flanders clay. It’s a tough ask for Edmund and there is every chance he could suffer a 3-0 defeat which pays […]

I’VE posted a separate preview on the matches in Celtic’s Group A and here I look at who needs what on a busy night of Europa League action. Group J is the tightest with all four teams still able to make it through. Monaco host Anderlecht with the French looking to preserve the group’s only unbeaten record. Spurs will have an […]

SKIPPER Scott Brown is the latest player to be ruled out of Celtic’s crunch tie at home to Ajax. The enforced will be out for up to 12 weeks and Ronny Deila’s squad is stretched with Kris Commons injured and fellow midfielders Nir Bitton and Stefan Johansen banned. Brown’s experience and Commons’ guile will be especially missed and without those […]

I ASKED Greg Browning for his opinion on this game yesterday and he fired me off a few stats. Fourteen out of 15 both to score and 13 out of 14 over 2.5 goals – makes goals in the Premiership clash at McDiarmid Park something of a no brainer. Saints are the Leicester of the Scottish top flight – minus Jamie […]

ONE of the most popular bets of the day could be Jamie Vardy to score for Leicester at Newcastle and equal Ruud van Nistelrooy’s record of netting in 10 successive Premier League matches. If he passes a fitness test and manages it he would be trying to pass the Dutch striker’s mark against the side he achieved it with … […]

IT’S back to normal in Scotland with a full card and proper fight for the Championship title as Hibs and Falkirk chase Rangers. I’m on all three to win and in the Premiership there should be a convincing three points for Celtic at home to Kilmarnock. As usual William Hill’s Owen Scott has looked at the big games and has […]

WHILE Rangers have been dragged into a title race by Hibs and Falkirk it’s a surprise to see which team is sitting in fourth – the best of the rest in a way. Morton have climbed to those lofty heights after four wins in a row and go into Friday’s Championship clash with local rivals St Mirren in great shape. […]

The first annual World Series of darts finals begins this weekend in Glasgow and Michael van Gerwen is the hot favourite to claim the crown. MVG put up a sterling display to win the Grand Slam of Darts at 7-4 and is the same price to win this event! When looking at how MVG was able to play, he characterised […]

IT’S a big day of international football dominated by the final two Euro 2016 play-offs even if the eyes of the world will be on Wembley where England host France just four days after the Paris atrocities. Denmark gave themselves hope with a late goal in the first leg that means they trail Sweden 2-1 but I’m on the visitors […]

FOR years I’ve put up a Super Single – a bet I like that pays at least evens if possible. It’s not a banker bet because every selection at evens has a one in two chance of coming up. My success rate with the Super Single has been pretty decent but less spectacular in recent months. In the main I […]

THE talk in Scotland has been about a three-way fight for the title and while Rangers remain massive odds-on favourites there’s no doubt Hibs and Falkirk are making a fist of it. Falkirk’s only defeats have been to the top two and victory against Livingston on Tuesday will close the gap on the leaders to two points and Alan Stubbs’s […]

IRELAND were long shots to get a result in Bosnia and now will hope a Long shot puts them through. A 1-1 draw in Zenica last week must have been more than Martin O’Neill had hoped for from his injury-hit squad. It could have been better if they hadn’t conceded a late equaliser to Edin Dzeko – even though no […]

HERE’S one for Celtic and Rangers fans to debate – or anyone else for that matter. With Ibrox hitman Martyn Waghorn on 14 goals and Hoops star Leigh Griffiths on 13, McBookie.com are betting on which player will be the top scorer in the whole of Scotland. Waghorn is the 4-7 favourite with Griffiths next in the betting on 6-4. […]

IN England today the focus is on League One and League Two and there’s a fascinating clash at York where Jackie McNamara makes his home dugout debut against Plymouth’s Derek Adams. Plymouth have been knocked out of two cups at home in the past week but Adams played weakened teams suggesting promotion is his one and only priority. McNamara’s men […]

THERE are no Premiership fixtures today so the focus is on the lower leagues and Petrofac Training Cup semi-final. Queen’s Park v Peterhead at Hampden could claim to be match of the day in Scotland with Rangers or St Mirren awaiting the winners. Peterhead striker Rory McAllister could be the difference between the teams. The ex-Inverness striker has 17 goals in 17 games including five […]

THE first Euro 2016 play-off tie summed up the occasion in one word – UNDERS. Norway v Hungary screamed under 2.5 goals and that’s exactly how it turned out as the home crashed to a 1-0 defeat after a game they dominated. Unders could be a recurring theme for the four ties (eight games) and I tell you what – […]

I thought I’d write a brief note to cover a few queries and provide a few more pointers to help you get the […]
