"Partick Thistle have established themselves as a credible title contender to St Johnstone in the Championship and look a good price to get a victory over Arbroath on Saturday.

The Jags beat Queen’s Park 1-0 on Tuesday night to record their sixth win in their last seven games. The exception was a League Cup clash against Celtic – a game they were always likely to be up against it.

Arbroath, meanwhile, have made a good start to the season and lie 4th in the league. However, when it comes to facing the very best the Championship has to offer, they have struggled. The Red Lichties were thumped 3-0 by Raith Rovers last weekend, which marked a third game in succession without a win.

Back in August, they were similarly comfortably beaten away to St Johnstone. Indeed, Arbroath have lost three of the four matches they have played against clubs in the top six, conceding 12 times in these clashes.

Partick have won each of their league games since the middle of August, and I’m backing that run to continue at Firhill against a team that’s consistently toiled against opponents of their level."

"I’m going back to an old favourite bet this season as Clyde host East Kilbride, with at least three goals looking a good price again in Hamilton.

The home side look overpriced going into this match after five successive wins, during which they have found their shooting boots. Clyde have scored a notable 12 times in their last three league games.

East Kilbride, meanwhile, have hit a more difficult spell of form. Mick Kennedy’s side are five without a win and were left especially stunned last weekend as they lost 3-1 away to struggling Annan.

Goals remain a constant in East Kilbride’s matches, though. Only two of their 16 fixtures in all competitions have failed to produce at least three goals, while 13 of these games have seen at least four strikes.

The odds on this trend continuing in Hamilton are simply too good to ignore, particularly with the hosts being involved in a string of high-scoring clashes lately."
