MOT your multiple - the Home Nations

Every week, we put one of the most popular multiples to the test, and this time we're examining a four-fold including all the home nation sides.

The multiple therefore, is Wales to lose against Montenegro, England to beat Bulgaria, Slovenia to beat Northern Ireland and Scotland to beat Lithuania, with a tenner punt paying out an impressive £48.15 in profit.

However, there is one change we would be looking to make - and it pays out an even bigger profit.

Wales are big outsiders in their clash with Montenegro after spectacularly failing to qualify for the World Cup. The two teams played each other in a friendly last year with Montenegro coming out 2-1 winners.

With Gareth Bale and Craig Bellamy in superb form it could be tempting to back the draw. However, Wales haven't drawn in their last 21 international games so we're sticking with Montenegro to come out on top.

Despite the trials of the past few months, England should be too good for Belgium. England may be without several first-team players - but they didn't exactly inspire in South Africa did they? Fabio Capello is rumoured to be considering playing Wayne Rooney as a lone striker and that should pay dividends for the Three Lions.

Bulgaria have only won once in their last 12 away games and England's rehabilitation should begin in earnest tonight.

Northern Ireland travel to Slovenia having not won in over a year of football. They've only won one of their last 14 away games, and haven't scored in their last seven matches - Slovenia should run out comfortable winners.

The only change we'd make to the multiple would be to the Scotland punt. They're narrow favourites in their clash, but could find it difficult against Lithuania. The Scots haven't even scored in their last five away games, and have only won one of their last nine on the road.

Lithuania have had some impressive results at home in recent years - beating Austria and Serbia, and we think Scotland will have to settle for the draw.

A fiver on those four results will pay out an even better £60.55.
