SPL Week 2 Fixtures....

SPL Premier Division

Hamilton vs Hearts
St Johnstone vs Aberdeen
Hibs vs Rangers (sun)
Celtic vs St Mirren (sun)
Dundee Utd vs Inverness (sun)
Kilmarnock vs Motherwell (sun)

As you will see above 4 of our games will be taking place on Sunday due to club being involved in European competition. Th early kick off on Saturday will see Hamiltion taking on Hearts , both will be looking for better results than last week as Hamilton were horsed 4-0 by Aberdeen and Hearts could only manage a 1-1 home draw with St Johnstone.

Aberdeen travel to St Johnstone also on Saturday looking to stay top of the league after their impressive 4-0 win last week , St johnstone will be looking to add to their decent start which saw then hold Hearts with 10 men.

Big match on Sunday is the SKY SPORTS 4 live mate between Hibs and Rangers. Hibs got over their European disappointments by beating Mothwerwell 3-2 at Fir Park whilst the champions will be looking to new loan signing Vladimir Weiss to supply the ammunition for strikers Beattie and Miller.

Celtic take on St Mirren and will be hoping to build on their impressive performance vs Utrecht midweek , the Paisley side will travel to Parkhead hoping to get over their disappointment of conceding a last minute goal that denied them a win vs Dundee Utd last week.

Dundee Utd take on Highlanders Inverness in a game they must win if they want to travel to Greece with any confidence. Utd started slowly last week and only managed a draw away to St Mirren , Inverness started brightly vs Celtic last week in the SPL opener but fell away and were eventually defeated 1-0.

Kilmarnock take on Europa League hopefuls Motherwell in a game that might see Craig Brown rest some of his stars before that massive game vs Odense BK on Thursday. Kilmarnock played well last week vs Rangers and were beaten 2-1 , Motherwell were beaten 3-2 at home but i feel their minds are totally on the Europa League at the moment.

My betting prediction - there is not much to play with this week i feel in both the SPL and SFL , I'm going for a Celtic win that offers low odds and Falkirk to gain revenge for their ALBA cup defeat against Stirling Albion. Both teams odds add up to just of 1/2.
