It's semi-final time at the World Cup and the cream really has risen to the top with the top four teams in the FIFA rankings slugging it out.
Most neutrals wanted to see Spain take on France in the showpiece but they collide in the last four instead and the stage is set for a cracker tonight.
Les Bleus have been the team of the tournament so far but they now take on a Spanish side who are on an incredible 36-game unbeaten run.
France vs Spain top betting tips
The bookies believe France's superstar forward line will get them over the line tonight, with Didier Deschamps' side odds-on favourites to reach the final on the World Cup betting apps.
But Spain have beaten France in two semi-finals on their unbeaten run, following up a 2-1 triumph at Euro 2024 with an incredible 5-4 victory in the Nations League last summer.
That suggests they could be worth a punt at 13/10 to come out on top, even though the French have been looking pretty formidable so far.
The Spanish will need Lamine Yamal to step up if they're to prevail and the wonderkid scored twice in that 5-4 win a year ago.
He's been having plenty of pops at goal at the World Cup and has managed two or more efforts on target in four of his last five games.
But the bookies have been pricing him at evens and above for over 1.5 shots on target in all of the knockout ties and it's the same story tonight. That bet pays evens at Bet365 and looks good value based on his stats so far.
Kilmarnock vs Raith Rovers
The Scottish League Cup group stage continues tonight and Kilmarnock kick off their campaign at home to Championship side Raith Rovers.
Killie ended last season strongly under Neil McCann as they avoided a relegation play-off and look to have recruited shrewdly this summer.
So they look good value at 4/5 for a win tonight at Rugby Park and the odds reverse to 5/4 if you add on over 1.5 goals.
Killie scored three or more goals in their final four games last term and backing them for over 2.5 strikes tonight pays 5/2.
Falkirk vs Ayr United
Falkirk flew out of the traps at the weekend as they smashed five goals past Edinburgh City and will be looking to grab another League Cup win tonight at home to Ayr.
The Bairns were one of the stories of last season as they finished in the top six of the Premiership, having won back-to-back promotions.
They lost key men Barney Stewart and Calvin Miller in the summer but there was no lack of firepower at the weekend, with Ross MacIver netting a hat-trick.
Ayr will provide stiffer opposition than Edinburgh City but they're a team in transition under new manager Gary Naysmith.
The Championship side edged a 3-2 win away to Stranraer at the weekend and that suggests Falkirk's attack could get some more joy.
Combining a Bairns win with over 2.5 goals appeals at 11/10 with Bet365 while the same firm offer 6/5 on John McGlynn's side scoring in each half.
