Will the Old Firm Curse Strike Again?

About this time last year I posted an article about the Curse of Beating the Old Firm. Old Grandfather Selectabet had told me about how any team that beats either Celtic or Rangers never seem to win their next game. After a bit of research it appeared to be true – maybe he isn’t losing his marbles after all!

Tomorrow, St.Mirren are away to Hamilton in the SPL, following a surprise 1-0 win over Rangers last time out. At the last check of the stats just 16% of teams who defeat Rangers, then play their next game away from home manage to win. That makes the 7/5 (888 Sport, Blue Sq, Canbet) on a Hamilton win look very appealing.

But Hamilton have suffered a little dip in form of late and haven’t registered a league win since they beat Aberdeen 2-1 on September 13th. That makes me a wee bit nervous about diving in and I prefer the look of the 33/40 at VCBet on Hamilton in the Asian Handicap market. They price it up at (0) each side, so it’s effectively the same as the Draw No Bet market.

Make sure you add this one to your accumulator tomorrow.
