Andy's Tuesday tips - Scotland to sneak it

The Swiss offer a real test for England. The Three Lions should be looking for three points but if Switzerland play like they did against Spain at the World Cup then Fabio Capello's team will be in for a tough night.

They lack flair but they are hardworking and very organised. It would do wonders for England's confidence if they could emerge from their opening Euro 2012 qualifiers with six points but I have a feeling that Switzerland will hold them to a draw.

Scotland's home match against Liechtenstein should be a guaranteed three points for Craig Levein's men. They don't tend to win by big margins though, even against the weakest teams. I expect a 2-0 win ([5.9]) and will back under 2.5 goals.

The Republic of Ireland are very short odds of [1.03] to beat Andorra and they should have no problems marking their first competitive appearance at the Aviva Stadium with a win.

Recommended bets:
Back Switzerland and England to draw at [3.5]
Back under 2.5 goals in Scotland versus Liechtenstein at [2.6]
