Scotland face a crucial game against Israel and the home advantage could help Steve Clarke’s men in Glasgow …
Frank Monkhouse says: “Clarke is facing the most crucial game of the group, but he does so with several important players coming back from injury. Two key men in Scott McTominay and Stuart Armstrong are back in contention for upcoming games against Israel on Saturday and the Faroe Islands on Tuesday. Other notable additions to the squad include Rangers goalie Jon McLaughlin and Celtic captain Callum McGregor, who was named despite his recent return from injury.
“Scotland have won three, drawn two and lost only one so far, and their most recent form is very useful to them for this game. The locals are looking for a hat-trick after beating Moldova and Austria last month, both by a score of 1-0. A win in their next three outings would secure Scotland a place in the playoffs, making it easier for Clarke to keep the players motivated. The fate of Scotland is in their hands, and Hampden fans can’t ask for more than that. “
Frank’s bet: Return Scotland 1-0 @ 6.611/2
Azerbaijan v Republic of Ireland

Manager Stephen Kenny is under pressure ahead of the Republic of Ireland’s trip to Azerbaijan on Saturday. He would like to get his first competitive victory as a manager in Baku.
Daniel McDonnell says: “Ireland preparations for this luminaire are a luxury compared to previous windows.
“Previously, the big games were on Wednesday after a Sunday / Monday rally with a limited working window. This time Ireland came together for a Saturday game on Monday with a long flight as the only downside.
Ironically enough, the problem with the rapid turnaround of the Kenny era was actually the handling of triple headers where all games are of equal importance but the first meeting drained energy.
The aforementioned difficulties against Luxembourg and Azerbaijan came three days after away losses to Serbia and Portugal respectively. Failure to respect the intensity was sanctioned.
“This time, all the focus is on Azerbaijan with the friendly follow-up against Qatar paling into insignificance. If the application that was introduced in the days of absence of the Serbs and the Portuguese is reproduced here, then they are more than capable of prevailing. “
Daniel’s bet: support Ireland to win @ 2.265/4
Andorra vs. England

England are close to qualifying for the World Cup in Qatar and their trip to Andorra on Saturday night should be a simple matter of how much they win.
Paul Higham says: “These games are always about how England want to win, and whether their players have enough enthusiasm to keep pushing if they have a 2-0 or 3-0 lead, like another possession of about 80% like at Wembley will surely see them score a few more goals.
“England only got five of 19 shots on target In the last encounter with the Andorran keeper officially registering just one save, but players like Kane, Lingard and Mason Mount can step up that to hit a few.
“Then you have Grealish eager to score a goal, Watkins and Abraham eager to impress and a lot of competition for places in the wide areas of forwards and midfielders – in short, there is enough desire here that England exceed the 4.5 goals which, at 2.757/4, is a slice of rare value in an ultra one-sided betting heat. “
Paul’s bet: come back to England to score more than 4.5 goals @ 2.757/4
Switzerland v Northern Ireland
Saturday October 9, 7:45 p.m.
Live on Sky Sports
Northern Ireland could increase their chances of qualifying for the play-offs by winning Saturday night in Geneva, but it won’t be easy against a strong Swiss side.
Paul Robinson says: “Northern Ireland would definitely take a point if offered – although I think they have to win the game – so don’t expect an enthusiastic approach from the Irish.
“Switzerland have struggled to score goals under their new manager – their last two have gone 0-0 – so supporting the draw with a view to conceding at half-time could be a good strategy in a match odds market that offers few options.
“Goals less than 2.5 are negotiated at 1.784/5 and make it a strong bet. As mentioned, the Swiss entered the game after two goalless draws, and four of Northern Ireland’s last six have seen Unders supporters rally.
“More than 2.5 goals are available for 2.26/5, and I guess it could be argued that the home side could potentially score three goals themselves – especially if they score one early – but I would like a much higher price than that to tempt me. “
Paul’s bet: back under 2.5 goals @ 1.784/5

Forest Green Rovers vs. Swindon Town

Live on Sky Sports
Swindon hasn’t lost in six away games, winning four, and a seventh would be a better run since March 2013. Will they be able to avoid loss to Ligue 2 leaders Forest Green on Saturday?
Ian Lamont said: “It wouldn’t surprise me at all if Swindon, with still little pressure on them, could win a fifth clean sheet of the season. I say little pressure, because in the summer the Robins had only nine. single point registered players, battled a backdrop of ownership issues and employed an ambitious but largely inexperienced young manager to sort it out.
Ben garner has done a great job so far, lifting visitors to fifth place. A tilt at the top of the table team is a free kick in an upward moving curve. Glad to have a preseason ticket on them to get promoted. Even if Jack Payne, Tyrece Simpson Where Ben Gladwin can’t find too many chances, Swindon might just keep his hosts at bay enough for a layer on Forest Green to pay off.
Ian’s bet: Lay Forest Green Rovers @ 1.865/6 vs. Swindon Town

“Support trotters on No bet draw makes sense around 2.47/5 because they are a dangerous side. “
