The SPFL Premiership goes in to hibernation for a couple of weeks but before it signs-off for the winter break we’ve a full round of fixtures this afternoon.
Celtic ensured they’d be top when the teams return at the end of the month by winning their second Glasgow Derby of the season but that’ll be relatively menaingless if they don’t follow it up with a win at St Mirren in today’s live match on Sky Sports.
We’ve focused on the Hoops’ corner count in recent weeks and it could be worth getting on board again. Prior to hitting a paltry four against Rangers, Brendan Rodgers’ men had hit 11, 12, 13, 11, 13, 12, 11, 9, 18 &14 in their last 10 domestic games – an average of 12.3 per game.
Bet365 go 11/10 on Celtic to take nine or more in Paisley today and with the lions’ share of possession that shouldn’t be far away.
Rangers will need to pick themselves up following their Derby Day defeat and in opponents Kilmarnock they welcome one of the form teams in the league.
Derek McInnes’ men are unbeaten in six and thought they’d nicked all three points on Saturday having taken the lead on the 93rd minuted only to concede to Dundee two minutes later.
Killie beat Rangers back in August at Rugby Park but you need to go back to 2018 for their last win at Ibrox when a certain Kris Boyd scored the only goal of the game for the men from Ayrshire. They’re 17/2 to win agains tonight but given how poor they’ve generally been away from home that feels a little short.
Despite current form Killie have only scored seven in 10 away games whilst Rangers boast the best home defensive record, conceding just six in nine and keeping five clean sheets. A Gers win to nil is 10/11.
Hearts followed up their own Derby win with a disappointing draw against Ross County but can and should be backed at 19/20 to win at Livingston who suffered yet another defeat at the weekend.
Livi are now six points adrift at the bottom and are now 12 without a win (D2 L10) and simply have to be opposed.
Jambos captain, Lawrence Shankland, has been in incredible form. His goal on Saturday made it 17 for the season and he’s 6/5 to score against the second worst defence in the division today.
Also in Scotland there should be goals at Hibs v Motherwell and in the Glasgow Derby between Partick thistle and Queen’s Park. The Over 2.5 Goals Double pays 2/1.
In the Premier League there’s only two points between West Ham and Brighton who meet at the London Stadium tonight.
The Hammers are in top form at the moment and but for a 5-0 aberration at Fulham they’ve been one of the form teams in December.
Brighton’s form has been mixed, a 1-1 draw with Crystal Palace was followed by a terrific 4-2 victory over Spurs.
West Ham won when the sides met at the Amex in August and home advantage makes them the most favourable option tonight at 7/5.

Racing Tips
Three selections have been picked out by Rizzel for Tuesday's racing.
As always, post your betting tips for today in the comments section below.
In December 2020 we sadly 
Apologies for the long write up. Few very early picks for the final weekend of NFL. Trying to get in early as lines likely to change as starters confirmed later this week. All of these are priced at 1.9.
Steelers -4.0 v Ravens – Steelers have to win to make the playoffs. #1 seed Ravens have already qualified and will likely start a second string team.
LA Rams +3.5 v 49ers – Both have qualified, but the Rams would likely play Detroit with a win rather that Dallas with a loss. 49ers will rest, (already confirmed). McVey rested v the 49ers in 2017, got steamrolled, and vowed never to rest again…
Bengals -5.0 v Browns. Again Browns resting starters. Nothing in it for the Bengals other than pride and a winning season, (9-8), if they win.
Jags -5.0 v Titans. Win and in for the Jags. They win the division if they beat a team that are 5-11 this season. Unless Derek Henry has the biggest game of his career I can’t see the Titans keeping pace in this one.
Buccs -5.5 v Panthers. Another win and in for the Buccs. Win and the get the AFC South title and a wildcard spot. Loose and it becomes tricky. Panthers are awful.
Eagles -5.5 v Giants – Eagles have been imploding recently but did win by 8pts against the Giants a few weeks ago. Rivalry game. Cant see Eagles resting given their recent form.
Miami +3 v Bills – Whoever wins this wins the division. Bills have the momentum and more to play for which is why they are favourites. But Miami will have Waddle and Mostert back. Tua should be able to keep pace. Either way, can see this being very close.
Don’t apologise mate. Great write up. Cheers

Hi all, it was one out of two bets for me yesterday and it was a close call for a full house. I’m sticking to the same strategy for today’s bets.
Football ⚽️ Championship Patrick Thistle vs Queens Park
🌟 Tip – BTTS No 13/8 Paddypower
The odds-against for the BTTS No looks decent, Queen’s Park have been scoreless in 3 of their last 5 matches and at least one team failed to score in 4 of Queen’s Park’s last 6 matches.
Football ⚽️ Premiership Rangers vs Kilmarnock
🌟 Tip – 2-3 goal band 11/10 Betway
Killie will make it tough for Rangers today and have conceded 1 or less goals in 9 of their last 10 matches. Under 3.5 goals have been scored in 15 of Kilmarnock’s last 17 away matches while Under 3.5 goals have been scored in 6 of Rangers’s last 7 home matches. 2-3 goal band is good value.
Good luck with your bets today!
Valencia v Villarreal
Valencia are having a minute silence before the match for Angel Castellonas.
So should be up for it.
1/1
Add anytime scorer Hugo Duro. 23/10
Celtic hit 23 corners in their last away game to Dundee, and before that it was 18 and 14 so in total 55 corners in the last 3 games which is an incredible stat.
I usually opt for at least 1 Celtic corner in first 15 minutes in my bet builder, which they also managed in the victory over Rangers, it’s usually a good addition to a bet builder if that’s your cup of tea 👍

Evening gents,
Fine margins this betting lark and, whilst the Liverpool/Newcastle game was a cracker, I was let down by 1 corner for a full house 🫣
Got the Joelinton booking as a half-decent Nb consolation prize…hey ho!
Same approach tonight for me but leaving out the corners – The Hammers look a brilliant price to score a brace:
