Scottish Premiership - tips and predictions
It has been an exciting Scottish Premiership season thus far, with high-scoring games, upsets and it being tighter at the top than anyone could’ve likely expected.
All this excitement though has brought an air of unpredictability that has put off some people from taking a punt on the Scottish Premiership.
It’s not all bad news for the punters, however, as the odds have never been better and there are still plenty of ways to beat the bookies - as our experts will tell you below!

The story of last week - an almighty coupon buster!
For fans of the winning sides, neutrals and lovers of football alike, last Saturday’s round of Scottish Premiership action was a sight to behold.
However, for Celtic fans, Hearts fans, and just about everyone with an acca on, it was a total nightmare!
All of the odds-on favourites dropped points on Saturday, with the most notable teams being Celtic and Hearts.
Celtic and Hearts both miss chance to go top
Celtic had the chance to go top of the table for the first time this season, but couldn’t break down a well-camped Livingstone side.
The Hoops were almost handed a lifeline in injury time when Ayo Obileye senselessly lashed out against Japanese forward Kyogo. However, Giakoumakis saw his strike easily saved by Livingston keeper Max Stryjek.
Hearts failed to capitalise on their chance to go top during their trip to Aberdeen. The Jambos blew a first-half lead to lose 2-1 and ended the game with ten men. This ended Hearts 11 game unbeaten run in the league
There were upsets elsewhere as high-flying Dundee United suffered a 1-0 home defeat at the hands of St. Johnstone while their struggling neighbours Dundee managed a 1-0 win away at St. Mirren. Ross County vs Hibernian was postponed due to a number of positive Covid tests within the Hibs camp.
Sunday Blues for Motherwell
Sunday brought a Rangers away win to Motherwell that most could’ve predicted, however, it was the result and the manner of their victory that was truly shocking.
Motherwell totally capitulated in the second half and found themselves at the end of a 6-1 scoreline against a Rangers side that have hardly been free-scoring so far this season.
Fashion Sakala bagged his first hattrick in a Rangers shirt, helping the Ibrox outfit to a victory that extends their lead at the top of the table to four points.
The best Scottish Premiership betting odds tips - week 13
Last week might have understandably left some of you thinking that the Scottish Premiership has become a must-avoid when it comes to your weekend punts.
However, below we’ve picked out the top Scottish Premiership bets for this weekend, courtesy of STSBet.
Aberdeen vs Motherwell - Home win + BTTS @ 18/5
Aberdeen started off this season terribly under Stephen Glass, but have bounced back in recent weeks with two wins and a commendable 2-2 draw at Ibrox that they really should’ve won.
On the contrary, Motherwell started the season strong, but have recently faltered, and are without a win in five games.
Despite their poor recent form, Motherwell have found the back of the net in ten out of their 12 Premiership games this season. Added to that, Aberdeen’s defense has been far from solid, with 16 goals shipped thus far.
With that in mind, an Aberdeen win with both teams to score looks like a steal at odds of 18/5 with STSBet!

Hearts vs Dundee United - Draw @ 27/10
Hearts and Dundee United sit level 21 points after four games, in 3rd and 4th place respectively.
Their last meeting Tannadice resulted in a 2-0 win for the Jambos, but recent form had been on the Arabs’ side until their defeat last Saturday.
Dundee vs Celtic - Away win to nil @ 28/25
In the reverse fixture back in August, a new-look Celtic thrashed Dundee 6-0 and it looked as though the era of Angeball had begun in earnest.
Celtic have had their ups and downs since then, while Dundee still sit second bottom of the table on 10 points.
Celtic have kept a clean sheet in three of their last four top-flight games, while Dundee are the second-lowest scorers in the league.
Therefore 28/25 looks a safe bet for a Celtic win to nil on Sunday.
