Mr Fixit’s Top Tips: Goals on menu as Baggies try salvage job

WE continue with the play-offs tonight with some big games in Scotland and England.

Down south it’s West Brom v Aston Villa as the Baggies try to recover from a 2-1 first-leg away defeat. SlipsTips has posted a comprehensive preview and we’re along the same lines.

West Brom will be without scorer Dwight Gayle who was sent off late on and that’s a big blow.

The result means Villa’s only defeat in 14 was a meaningless one against champions Norwich and they shouldn’t throw this away.

The Baggies need to score and I believe they will even if Hal Robson-Kanu is still banned so Jay Rodriguez is likely to start up top. Villa don’t tend to sit back so best bet could be both to score at 4-6 with William Hill.

Up north Inverness have completed stage one on the road back to the Premiership but are still miles away from promotion.

Next up for John Robertson’s men are Dundee United who have shaded the h2hs this season and won at Inverness last month. Kevinmac has a full preview of this one.

United finished nine points clear of their Highland rivals but the sides are pretty evenly matched.

ICT beat Ayr 4-2 on aggregate to reach the semis but Robbo admitted they’re feeling tired and are huge underdogs to qualify at 9-4 with bet365 while United are 8-15 with Sky Bet.

United have had nine days’ rest while ICT are moaning about the three-day gap between their ties and they’ll have to go again on Friday for the second leg.

To win tonight ICT are 7-4 with Ladbrokes while United are 17-10 at sportingbet and they’ll be looking to take advantage of signs of fatigue.

I can see an edgy affair tonight that ends all square at 9-4 at McBookie but if I had to pick a winner it would be United so consider United draw no bet at 19-20 with Marathonbet.

Annan entertain Clyde in the League One final 1st leg and both sides are in good form. Clyde though finished eight points above their rivals and beat them three times in the regular season with the other a draw.

Clyde tempt at 44-25 with Marathonbet but I’m taking the game on a both to score double with WBA v Villa with four of the last five meetings bringing up the bet.

Elsewhere there are a handful of play-offs in Holland and Belgium that could be good for goals.

Last night my 10-1 Top Treble started well but red cards for Hamilton and Forest Green ended my hopes while Inter covered their -1 handicap.

Scott’s members bet was a good one with Inter to win to nil and he’ll have another today while Greg’s Estonia goals bets both landed – he just loves that country.

Well done to all the other winners especially those with the red at St Mirren.
