Wait 5 sec.

The start of the Scottish Premiership season is just a week away and St Mirren should have the perfect preparation by beating Dunfermline in the League Cup on Sunday.There are also other betting opportunities available in a string of games across Europe and South America.talkSPORT BET – Score up to £30 in free bets – CLAIM HERE*Bet of the day St Mirren to beat Dunfermline @ 21/10St Mirren enjoyed a memorable afternoon when they beat Celtic in last season’s Scottish League Cup final and they have scored four goals in each of their three group games against Dumbarton, Cove Rangers and East Kilbride this term.They could have too much for opponents Dunfermline. The Pars recovered from a 3-0 loss to East Kilbride to comfortably see off Dumbarton and Cove, but the holders look to be at the top of their game.Bet Builder Malmo vs Elfsborg – Malmo to win, both teams to score & under 10.5 corners @ 23/5Malmo have got over their run of four straight defeats in the Swedish Allsvenskan and, after scoring nine times in their last two home matches, they should have too much for Elfsborg.Their opponents have won just one of their six games on the road, but there is still a strong chance that both teams can find the net.The visitors have failed to score in just one of their 14 league games and both teams have scored in five of Malmo’s six home matches.Don’t expect many corners, though. Elfsborg manage fewer than four flag-kicks per away match, while Malmo average fewer than five on their own patch, so there may not be more than 10.Acca of the daySirius, GAIS, Sarpsborg, Flamengo and Palmeiras all to win @ 27/4Our five-fold selection covers games in Sweden, Norway and Brazil.Allsvenskan leaders Sirius are unbeaten and have already opened a nine-point lead and Goteborg look to have their work cut out here, particularly as they have conceded 20 goals in seven away games.Meanwhile, GAIS have conceded just twice in seven games on their own patch and they should prove far too strong for bottom-of-the-table Halmstad, who have just one point to show for their seven efforts on the road.In Norway, there looks a strong chance that HamKam will again struggle on the road as they have not won any of their six away encounters.The bad news for them is that they travel to in-form Sarpsborg, who have found some rhythm by claiming ten points from their last four matches.Brazil provides the location for the last two bets that can be combined with the games already mentioned for a potential 27/4 reward.Flamengo should gain their fourth victory on the bounce against Sao Paolo, who are winless in six. While Palmeiras have lost just once in Serie A all season and should have enough to see off Atletico Mineiro, as the leaders look to at least maintain their seven-point lead.talkSPORT BET – Score up to £30 in free bets – CLAIM HERE*Odds correct at time of publish and subject to change.Remember to gamble responsiblyA responsible gambler is someone who:Establishes time and monetary limits before playingOnly gambles with money they can afford to loseNever chase their lossesDoesn’t gamble if they’re upset, angry or depressedGamCare – www.gamcare.org.ukGamble Aware – www.gambleaware.orgFor help with a gambling problem, call the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133 or go to www.gamstop.co.uk to be excluded from all UK-regulated gambling websites.Commercial content notice: Taking one of the bookmaker offers featured in this article may result in a payment to talkSPORT. 18+.
