LEADERS Hibs face second-placed Dundee Utd at Easter Road in a game that could go a long way to deciding the Ladbrokes Championship. I tipped Hibs at the start of the season and they are just 4-6 with Paddy Power to finish top dogs. United, just one point adrift, are 7-5 at Marathonbet. Hibs are a bigger price to beat […]

ACE enjoyed a great 2016 and is hoping for an even better 2017. He says: Happy New Year to everyone and here’s looking forward to a year of great golf … and great tipping. The Tournament of Champions invites 32 winners on the PGA Tour in 2016 to Kapalua, Maui, Honolulu. The Plantation Course is a 7452-yard par 73 which […]

CHELSEA have been unstoppable and Spurs superb so who will come out on top when two immovable objects meet. The Blues are on an incredible run of 13 consecutive Premier League wins – 16 in total – and bet365 offer 7-2 about Antonio Conte’s men notching a record tally of 30 or more victories this season. Conte’s men are 7-1 […]

THERE are three Premier League tonight with Arsenal aiming for points to stay in the title at Bournemouth and a crucial relegation battle between Crystal Palace and Swansea. In the other game Stoke entertain a Watford who have injury problems and were torn apart by Spurs on Sunday. I’ve already tipped a Palace/Stoke double at 23-10 with Marathonbet on the […]

MANY English clubs are running on empty as they prepare for a second outing in three days – so tread carefully today. The Premier League card looks a tough one with Man City the only “banker material” at home to Burnley. Liverpool will be well backed at Sunderland but do you really want to put them on accumulators at 4-11? […]

LAST week I focused on the top teams but today I’m looking at the lower end of the Premier League table. My Boxing Day tips were spot on and bookies would have been bashed with Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal and Man Utd all winning – as well as Liverpool the following day. Today Burnley v Sunderland and Swansea v Bournemouth […]

FANS could be in for a Friday night firecracker with both sides in confident mood. Hearts finally handed Ian Cathro his first win on Tuesday and it was a fabulous 4-0 crushing of Kilmarnock. Aberdeen made it back-to-back victories as they edged out Hamilton and this one is tough to call. The Jambos have been handed a massive blow with […]

AFTER Boxing Day wins by Chelsea, Man City, Arsenal and Man Utd it’s the turn of Liverpool to go for three festive points at home to Stoke. After Monday’s results Jurgen Klopp will feel it’s a must-win game and the good news is neither Stoke nor Mark Hughes as manager have won at Anfield. Liverpool are unbeaten at home on […]

FOUR of the Premier League’s striking stars could give punters a tidy windfall on Boxing Day according to Ladbrokes. The bookies are offering 18-1 for Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Alexis Sanchez, Kevin de Bruyne and Alvaro Negredo each to net as part of their clutch of festive specials. It’s 11-8 for the eight Premier League fixtures to produce 25 goals or more or 15-8 we […]

WHILE most of Europe enjoys a couple of days off there is almost a full card in Scotland – and remember they kick off early. There were four Premiership matches last night and today why not accept a festive gift from McBookie who have enhanced a Celtic/Rangers double to an industry-best evens (max stake £20). If like me you see […]

TAKE away the games involving Celtic and Rangers and seven of the last eight Premiership fixtures have been draws. That shows how closely matched “the best of the rest” are and just 13 points separate third from bottom. So when you consider tonight’s four matches they look difficult to call. Let’s start with St Johnstone at Kilmarnock. Saints have the […]

CELTIC thumped Partick Thistle less than two weeks ago and will hope for a similar sort of result tonight. It was 4-1 to the champions at Firhill although the Jags gave it a good go. The Hoops as usual are extremely short at 2-13 at Ladbrokes and backers of handicaps will be put off their last two results – 1-0 v […]

SKY have been building up to a frenzy ahead of tonight’s Mersey Monday – so let’s hope it’s a cracker and not a damp squib. To be fair when these two go head to head it’s more likely to be 3-3 than 0-0 and that will remain the case while Jurgen Klopp is in charge. Under the German the Red […]

CHELSEA made it 10 in a row in midweek and should continue their winning run at Crystal Palace today. Antonio Conte’s men have turned it around in some style after a 3-0 loss at Arsenal and are 17-20 favourites at Betfair to win the Premier League. No one would have predicted they’d be odds on before Christmas and Man City […]

I’M delighted to have Channel 4’s Nick Luck join the team here at MrFixitsTips. It’s great to have such a respected and knowledgeable figure be part of it and I hope he can start with a winner or two. Here’s his take on the meeting at Ascot on Saturday. Nick says: I’ll kick off my best bets at Ascot on […]

Nick (@nickluck) has been crowned Horserace Writers’ & Photographers’ Association Broadcaster of the Year on no less than three occasions and I’m delighted to welcome him to the site, in […]

IT seems unfair on Hamilton to play both halves of the Old Firm in the space of four midweek days. Accies gave it their best shot in losing 1-0 at Celtic on Tuesday and some players will be leggy ahead of tonight’s clash with Rangers. The Ibrox side have had their feet up this week and Accies meet them at […]

THERE’S no stopping Chelsea and that could be bad news for Davie Moyes. Sunderland are the next obstacle in the way of the leaders and I’m backing the Blues to make it 10 wins in a row and take full advantage of Arsenal’s defeat at Everton. They’re hot favourites but at 4-11 with the likes of McBookie can be taken […]

IT’S a busy midweek with a full card of Premier League games but only two tonight – Everton v Arsenal and Bournemouth v Leicester. Everton’s loss to Watford at the weekend made it one win in nine after a good start and the pressure’s starting to build on Ronald Koeman although he has a three-year deal. Arsenal, meanwhile, are on […]

WHO will look more like champions tonight – Leicester or Man City? That’s the big question as the Champions League hopefuls meet head on at the King Power after under-performing in the Premier League. Leicester boss Claudio Ranieri fielded reserves at home as his side wrapped up their Group G campaign with a shocking 5-0 defeat at Porto while Pep Guardiola […]

ONLY fatigue can stop Celtic extending their lead at the top of the Premiership tonight. Brendan Rodgers’s side face Partick Thistle just three days after a gruelling 90-minute battle with Man City. Celtic have handled their busy schedule with just two points dropped at Inverness and are unlikely to freshen things up a little. The Jags have been nearly men […]

TONIGHT’S all about the Europa League and here’s a summary of how the groups stand, what teams are through and what others need to do to make the last 32. Man United need a draw at Zorya to progress from Group A but the game is doubtful due to a frozen pitch. United trail Fenerbahce by one point and lead Feyenoord by […]

THE jury’s still out on Man City under Pep Guardiola but Chelsea look the team to beat with Antonio Conte at the helm. Pep started at a rate of knots with 10 wins in a row before the wheels came off against Celtic. A 3-1 defeat of Barcelona showed their class but since then City have been ordinary with two […]

WITH the possibility Rangers can drop down to fourth in the Premiership on Saturday Scottish firm McBookie.com are asking where they will finish in the league. At the moment a second place is still favourite at 5-4 but that does make them odds on to finish further down the table. They are 15-8 for third, 2-1 for fourth and 33-1 […]
