Sunday's Football Tips: Daizen 8/5 to Continue Hot Streak in Celtic vs. Hearts Clash - SCCG Management

It’s a critical day in the SPFL Premiership title race as Celtic aim to dethrone Heart of Midlothian at Parkhead.

The Hoops were eight points behind the leaders when Martin O’Neill became interim boss following Brendan Rodgers’ unexpected exit.

As Wilfried Nancy gears up for his first match at Celtic Park, only goal difference keeps the Jambos ahead, and they have also played one more game than the champions.

The scene is set for an epic clash this afternoon as the former Columbus Crew manager steps into the fray.

Celtic vs Heart of Midlothian top betting tips

Hearts enter this match in poor form, having won only once in their last six matches, wasting their big lead.

However, they have lost just once in the Premiership all season, a 1-0 loss at Aberdeen where they arguably outperformed the hosts, making them a worthwhile bet in the double chance at 11/8 with Betfred.

Celtic are not yet at last season’s level and had to work hard for a 1-0 home win over struggling Dundee midweek.

Daizen Maeda scored the winner that night and looks more comfortable since moving from the right wing to center forward.

The Japanese striker is 8/5 with William Hill for any time scorer, which seems generous given he has scored in his last two games.

Brighton and Hove Albion vs West Ham United

West Ham United remain in the Premier League’s drop zone and face a tough challenge as they visit Brighton today.

The Hammers earned a hard-fought point at Old Trafford on Thursday and have become tougher to beat since Nuno Espirito Santo took over.

But they now face a Seagulls team that was unbeaten at home all season before a seven-goal thriller loss to Aston Villa on Wednesday.

Brighton’s last five home games have produced double figures in corners, making it a market to consider. Over 10.5 corners pays 31/20 at Skybet, while West Ham could be worth a bet at +3 in the handicap at 19/20 with William Hill.

Brajan Gruda has impressed in recent games for Brighton, and the midfielder is 8/5 with BetMGM to score or assist today.

Fulham vs Crystal Palace

Fulham’s dramatic comeback fell short against Manchester City on Wednesday, and it will be interesting to see their response in today’s London derby against Crystal Palace.

After trailing 5-1 to Manchester City, Craven Cottage was vibrant as Marco Silva’s team pulled back three goals, only to be denied an unlikely point by a goal-line clearance.

Fulham’s attack breached Pep Guardiola’s defense, but they now face a Palace team that has kept clean sheets in three of their last four Premier League games.

Another seven-goal thriller is unlikely, and I’m betting against BTTS at evens with BOYLE Sports, with the bet successful in four of the last five meetings.

Palace boasts a stronger lineup than Fulham, but the Cottagers have home advantage, suggesting a close game. The half-time draw seems a strong choice at 6/5 with BetMGM.

Super singles
