At BookieCo for the Scottish and Croatian openers
The UK leagues are in the home stretch for the start of the new season. The Scots start today and over the next two weeks all of their leagues and divisions will be in full swing.
HERT OF MIDLOTHIAN - RANGERS (14:30)
Rangers will open the new season with a tough test against Hearts away from home. In their last game both teams provided goals and spectacle, with the final score of 3-3 leaving the fans satisfied too.
The game is expected to be a tightly contested and quite interesting, with the visitors being favourites to win.
In addition to Scotland and several other leagues, another one is set to kick off the new season. The reason is the Croatian league, where Dinamo Zagreb, by no means surrenders the reins. In yet another marathon, they are favourites to finish in first place and the other teams are bound to chase them in the hope of overtaking them.
Heyduk Split will face Slaven on Monday, while Rijeka will host Lokomotiva on the same day. As for the multi-champion from Zagreb, she played on Friday, in the match that opened the curtain of the new league.
Four games are on the Saturday menu in Belgium and as always they are expected with great interest. In the opening round almost all the favourites went wrong and it remains to be seen whether they will correct their mistakes in the second round or continue their gaffes.
