Welcome to Ally McCoist’s Scottish Premiership preview with talkSPORT BET! It’s a massive week in what’s shaping up to be one of the most thrilling title races we’ve seen in decades as we enter the penultimate round of fixtures before the split.

Here’s a cracker for you – only once this season have all of the top three managed to win on the same weekend.

That tells you everything about how tight and unpredictable things have been. But looking at this weekend’s fixtures, I’ve got a feeling we might just see that happen again…and I’m even giving you a 50/1 acca boosted from 35/1 for this Saturday

Let’s dive straight into it.

Ally McCoist has chosen his acca for the weekend’s Scottish Premiership football on talkSPORT BET!

Motherwell v Falkirk (Saturday, 15:00)

Prediction: Motherwell 2-0 Falkirk

Both sides deserve huge credit for what have already been stellar campaigns. Falkirk, under John McGlynn, have been nothing short of remarkable—back-to-back promotions and now on the brink of a top-six finish. That’s incredible going.

That said, I just fancy Motherwell here. They’ve had a slight dip, but at home they’re a different proposition altogether. They’re physical, organised, and know how to get the job done in these types of games.
I’m backing the Steelmen to get back on track—and I’ll go for Tawanda Maswanhise to find the net and keep himself right up there in the scoring charts.

Hibs v Kilmarnock (Saturday, 15:00)

Prediction: Hibs 1-2 Kilmarnock

I’m going for the outsiders here – but it’s maybe not as big a shock as it sounds. I fancy Kilmarnock to go to Easter Road and nick this one.

They’ve clearly picked up under Neil McCann, with two wins on the bounce, and there’s a bit of belief about them again. Hibs, on the other hand, have stalled slightly—three draws in a row isn’t ideal at this stage of the season.

This one looks great value to me. I’m backing Killie to edge it.

St. Mirren v Aberdeen (Saturday, 15:00)

Prediction: St Mirren 0-1 Aberdeen

It sounds strange to say it, but this is a proper relegation scrap. Both sides are in real danger of slipping into that play-off spot, which shows just how tight things are at the bottom.

You’ve got St Mirren – League Cup winners this season, and Aberdeen, who lifted the Scottish Cup last year. Neither would’ve imagined being in this position.

Form hasn’t been great for either, but I’ve just got a feeling here. I think Stephen Robinson might come back to haunt his former club and finally get a win on the board with Aberdeen.

That’s my Saturday Acca for you guys, and talkSPORT BET have even boosted it from 35/1 out to 50/1!! You can back it HERE

Rangers v Dundee United (Saturday, 15:00)

Prediction: Rangers 3-0 Dundee United

No surprises here—I’m backing my former side all the way.

Rangers look like they’re building real momentum, and the January additions, particularly Rommens and Chukwani, have made a difference. There’s a real belief growing that they can go on and win the title.

Dundee United had a fantastic result against Celtic last time out, but going to Ibrox against a title-chasing Rangers side is a completely different challenge. I think it’ll be too much for them.

Comfortable home win for me.

Livingston v Hearts (Sunday, 14:00)

Prediction: Livingston 0-1 Hearts

Livingston look destined for the drop, sitting with a big gap to make up – but to their credit, they haven’t given up. Four draws in their last five games tells you they’re still fighting.

That said, Hearts have shown real resilience whenever they’ve been tested this season. Every time you think they might slip, they dig in and get the result.

I don’t think this will be easy, but I do expect Hearts to grind out another important win.

Dundee v Celtic (Sunday, 16:30)

Prediction: Dundee 1-1 Celtic

I’ve got a feeling this could be a tricky one for Celtic.

Dundee have been excellent lately. They pushed Celtic to extra time in the Scottish Cup not long ago, and since then they’ve picked up some really impressive results—wins over Motherwell and Aberdeen, plus draws against Hibs and Dundee United.

Celtic, meanwhile, will still be feeling the effects of that loss at Tannadice. It’s not the ideal time to be facing a side full of confidence.

I think Dundee can get something here. I’m going for a draw—and that could be a big twist in the title race.

Enjoy the games, folks – this weekend could be absolutely massive in shaping how the season finishes!
