A tip from the Joker to get your betting day under way...

Mother's well, the Joker's well, all is well. The Steelmen beat Hibs 4-3 at Fir Park last night and this column is 2/3 for the week as it heads over to the continent...

Holland's Pride of the East have jumped into bed with the Pride of the East Midlands again. And, second time round, Steve McLaren has made a fast start as Twente manager. His team are 1-0 up on Steaua Bucharest and - having won five of their last six Europa League games anywhere and 10/14 at De Grolsch Veste - should extend that lead at home in the second leg tonight.

Steaua have lost two in a row on the road in Europe, including a rather damning 5-0 defeat to Maccabi Haifa.

Recommended Bet: Back Twente @ [1.50] to beat Steaua Bucharest
