IT’S a busy midweek for Scottish Football League clubs in league and cup business. And let’s hope there will be no love lost and punters can make it a Valentine’s Day massacre for the bookies. Joe Wallace kicks off in the William Hill Scottish Cup and Queen of the South’s home fourth-round replay with Aberdeen. The Palmerston men held the Dons […]

IT’S Champions League week but before the big games kick there are three matches in La Liga and Serie A to look at plus on in League Two. Let’s start in Spain with Real Sociedad v Sevilla. Bookies surpisingly make the visitors favourites despite losing four and drawing two of their last six. Sociedad on the other hand have looked […]

I’M focusing on three big guns to produce the goods on Sunday. I’ve tipped up Man City at Aston Villa in my Premier League preview so I won’t go over the reasoning again. So start with Man City and add Inter Milan (it should have been Juventus but their game is off) at home to Novara. Inter are facing a side […]

I WENT close on all my both teams to score lines on Saturday – but that’s par for the course. I’m knocking on the door for a fivefold and hopefully today’s the day. So let’s start in the Premier League where there were plenty of goals – but none for a team we needed in Newcastle. Wolves v West Brom […]

THERE were thrills and spills in the Premier League on Saturday and I tipped the two big ones correctly by taking wins for Man United and Spurs. On Sunday there are two more matches with Aston Villa entertaining Man City (4.0) on the main bill and Wolves v West Brom (1.30) featuring on the undercard. So let’s start at Villa Park where […]

LAST weekend’s SFL card was almost entirely wrecked by the wintry conditions but let’s hope we have weathered the storm and can come up with a winning treble to help beat the winter blues. We kick off in the Irn-Bru First Division and focus on Ross County’s away trip to face Raith Rovers. County have been a revelation since manager […]

AND so ends another busy midweek – with some winners and some losers and some near misses. We finish off this week with two games in Italy, Lazio v Cesena in Serie A and Siena v Napoli in Coppa Italia. The Lazio game has been brought forward from the weekend to accommodate the rugby and the home side will be […]

Wednesday, Tynecastle, 7.45pm, live on Sky Sports 1 HEARTS were the last team to beat Celtic on the domestic scene – but that was way back in October and the Glasgow giants have been on a different planet ever since. Neil Lennon’s side have clocked up 15 wins on the spin and should make is sweet 16 as they aim […]

THERE are some big cup games spread across Europe tonight but none bigger than Barcelona v Valencia. The European champions haven’t been their sparkling self of late and will face a tough test in the Nou Camp. However, having fought out a 1-1 draw away the advantage is with Barca and I can see them reaching the Final with a […]

Wednesday, the Riverside, 7.45pm, live on ITV HANDS up if Sunderland cost you a few quid when they failed to beat Middlesbrough in their FA Cup home meeting. And hands up if you’re still going to back them in the replay at the Riverside tonght. Yes, me too. Sunderland are 11-10 almost across the board and I’m sure they’ll win […]

I LOVE hearing about big winners – and here’s three from the world of golf. A 60-year-old man from Belfast picked up almost £140,000 at the weekend on a bet he placed with Coral in error. He thought he had backed Gonzalo Fernandez-Castano to win the Qatar Masters and Kyle Stanley for the Waste Management Phoenix Open in a £50 […]

PUNTERS have been feeling my pain after one side beat my last three both teams to score lines. Norwich were the culprits when they failed to score at Sunderland then it was Bolton at Norwich last Saturday. And finally another fivefold bit the dust because Rangers couldn’t net at home to Dundee United in the Scottish Cup on Sunday. That […]

DUNDEE UNITED’S reward for knocking Rangers out of the William Hill Scottish Cup is a home draw against trophy favourites Celtic in the quarter-finals. It’s by far and away the tie of the round between the 2010 winners and the holders. The winners of the Hearts v St Johnstone tie will face St Mirren or Ross County while Ayr or Falkirk […]

MRFIXITSTIPS sponsors William Hill were offering an enhanced 10-1 treble tonight. The teams involved were Liverpool, Malaga and Le Mans but the game involving the French side is now off so anyone who took it will be left with a double. Elsewhere I’ve tipped a draw at Liverpool v Spurs but if you disagree you know where to go. It should be […]

Monday, Anfield, 8pm, live on Sky Sports 1 IT’S all about the return of Luis Suarez at Anfield tonight after the Uruguayan served his eight-match ban. The striker hasn’t played since Boxing Day but is likely to be on the bench with Liverpool enjoying a good recent run, reaching the Carling Cup Final at the expense of Man City and knocking […]

NY Giants v NE Patriots, Indianapolis, 10.30pm, live Sky Sports 1 THE Super Bowl is a repeat of 2008 – but the singing’s not. Madonna will be the half-time entertainment highlight and her presence will add to a global audience which will pull in 110 million in the US alone. Super Bowl XLVI in Indiana features New York Giants against New England Patriots […]

I WAS a bit unlucky with my selections yesterday. All the games I picked out on Friday featured both teams scoring but I had to make changes as games fell to the big freeze. And in the end one team, Bolton, beat me for an English five-timer while in Scotland I managed a treble with the other two being postponed […]

ALL eyes will be on Ibrox on Sunday to see how Rangers respond to their latest crisis. Questions have been asked of owner Craig Whyte all week after it was revealed he had mortgaged of four years of fans’ season ticket money to the tune of nearly £25million. Top scorer Nikica Jelavic then joined Everton on transfer deadline day for […]

MAN UNITED boast the best away form in the Premier League and will need to be at their best on Sunday to pick up three points against Chelsea (4pm ko). The old foes meet under contrasting circumstances with the Reds once again challenging for the title while the Blues are out of the race and aiming to hold on to […]

TWO regular contributors to the success of this line let me down in midweek as Blackburn and Norwich failed to score. Rovers missed a penalty and squandered a hatful of chances against Newcastle but to be fair Norwich never turned up at Sunderland and it looked like they would draw a blank from early on. Getting eight of 10 teams […]

SNOW is just even money with Ladbrokes to fall on the pitch during the Manchester City-Fulham game on Saturday. So if all your bets are down you can sit here hoping for a drop of the white stuff. The bookies reckon players will also braced for the cold snap offering just 5-1 that all 22 starting players are wearing gloves of some […]

THE weather could decimate the Scottish Football League card this weekend – but that hasn’t stopped comeback man Joe Wallace in his hunt for a winning treble. Last weekend two ofour three tips fell foul of the conditions – but the third prediction, Stranraer, did the trick with a 5-2 thrashing of Elgin to at least give punters a small return on […]

Friday, 7.30, live on ESPN IT may be freezing in Germany but Borussia Dortmund are looking hot at as they fight Bayern Munich at the top of the table. Victory at icy Nuremberg tonight will see Dortmund climb to the summit for 24 hours at least. The temperature at kick-off time is expected to be around -10 but that shouldn’t stop […]

I’M not that keen on tipping the rugby but having read some previews it looks like Scotland have a decent chance of beating England in Saturday’s opener. The Scots haven’t lost to England at home since 2004 and have a more experienced side than their rivals who have made massive changes to their squad. England are 4-1 with Paddy Power […]

IT looks an early fight between Lee Clark and Neil Warnock for the vacant Leeds job. Hudersfield gaffer Clark is the 9-4 favourite at bet365 with former QPR boss Warnock just behind at 5-2. Bet365 spokesman Steve Freeth said: “We’ve seen the first real gamble of the Leeds manager market in the shape of Clark. He’s a manager who always attracts […]
