Can YOU guess the score between Crawley Town and Crystal Palace? Last summer's score is priced at 200/1 - while a 3-0 triumph for visitors is 11/1
The Eagles are in Europe for the first time - likely in the Europa Conference League, though they want the Europa League - on the back of their FA Cup glory in May.
After beating Millwall 1-0 in their first summer outing, Oliver Glasner 's men will travel to Crawley for the third summer in a row to get their joints warm.
Sky Bet are offering people the chance to predict the correct score, with odds rising as high as 200/1 for the most outlandish predictions.
For that price, you're looking at real shocks - a 5-0 win for Crawley, for example, or up to an 11-0 in favour of Palace.
Thrillers such as a 5-4 win either way also rank in that tier, as does a 5-5 draw.
There are also options for more modest score predictions. A 1-0 win for Crawley comes in at 16/1, a 0-0 draw is also 16/1, while Palace going home as 1-0 victors is priced at 8/1.
Last summer, this was a crazy affair. Palace were 6-3 winners that day, and for the same to happen again, the odds are 200/1.
Sky Bet selected odds for predicting the correct score between Crawley Town and Crystal Palace:
Crawley Town to win 1-0 16/1
Crawley Town to win 5/0 200/1
Crawley Town to win 5/4 200/1
0-0 draw 16/1
5-5 draw 200/1
Crystal Palace to win 1-0 8/1
Crystal Palace to win 5-4 200/1
Crystal Palace to win 6-3 200/1
Crystal Palace to win 11-0 200/1

Hibs fan fighting for life after away trip to Denmark for European clash
His son Ian shared the news in a message posted on Facebook 'BEST WISHES' Hibs fan fighting for life after away trip to Denmark for European clash Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A HIBS fan is fighting for his life in intensive care after falling seriously ill in Denmark whilst supporting his "beloved team" in Europe. Dougie Sneddon travelled to Copenhagen this week to watch the Hibees take on Midtjylland in their Europa League second qualifying round. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Dougie Sneddon was rushed to hospital in Denmark this week Credit: GoFundMe 3 He travelled to watch Hibs take on Midtjylland in the Europa League second qualifying round Credit: EPA Jamie McGrath's priceless early opener put David Gray's men ahead, but the match on July 24 finished 1-1 after Aral Simsir scored a late equaliser. However, the supporter, who was known to many as Uncle Dougie, was sadly rushed to a Danish hospital after taking ill during his trip. He is currently on a ventilator in the ICU and needs treatment. His son Ian shared the news in a message posted on Facebook through The Provincial Grand Lodge of Edinburgh. It said: "As you can imagine, it's come as a shock to us all, and with it happening away from home, that's just added to the complications and the stresses of the situation. "There's not too much information at the moment, but a brief summary of what has happened is that my Dad landed in Copenhagen on Tuesday evening and got on the train to travel to Henring for the match, but had to get off about an hour into the journey as he took really unwell. It's come as a shock to us all, and with it happening away from home, that's just added to the complications and stresses Ian "The good news is that there's been a slight improvement in him since he's been admitted, and he's responding well to dialysis and the antibiotics. "He is, however, still in intensive care and is still sedated and on a ventilator. "My mum and sister are staying at the hospital with him and are providing updates as and when they can, which I will share. "We're hoping that he continues to improve, but I think it's still going to be a long road of recovery ahead for him yet." Legendary Mixu Paatelainen lifts lid on Jim McLean's brutal blast, infamous Walter Smith bust-up and his Hibs job regrets And his fellow supporters have launched a fundraiser to try and raise vital cash for his family to help cover some of the costs. The GoFundMe page explains that his loved ones are trying to navigate through the complicated insurance process. But they are urging people to help the family with Dougie's ongoing healthcare costs in the meantime. Organiser Peter Manson wrote on the page: "I am starting a fundraising to help cover the cost of medical care and accommodation for a well-known friend to many. "As some of you may know, Uncle Dougie (Dougie Sneddon) was over in Denmark to see his beloved team. "Dougie became seriously ill and is in a Danish Hospital and is in ICU, and on a ventilator. "So the family need our donations to cover the cost till they find out about insurance. We're hoping that he continues to improve, but I think it's still going to be a long road of recovery ahead for him yet Ian "Not like the UK, everything must be covered first. "Any funds I receive will be transferred to the family ASAP. "I will also take cash donations and keep a check of who donated it and mention them if they request it. Please share". Many have flocked to social media to wish Dougie well in hospital. One person said: "Get well soon Dougie. Sending love to you and your family at this difficult time Another added: "Keep fighting and get well soon Bud." Someone else wrote: "Get well soon from a Hearts fan". While a fourth commented: "My best wishes, praying for a speedy recovery and happy outcome". And a fifth posted: "Thinking of you Dougie, get well bro". Anyone looking to donate to the fundraiser can do so here.

Premiership clubs' foreign signings and Gilmour, Ferguson and Hickey going abroad are worrying signs says Bill Leckie
Our man questions what makes domestic managers look overseas for their stars instead of into their academies HOME DISCOMFORTS Premiership clubs' foreign signings and Gilmour, Ferguson and Hickey going abroad are worrying signs says Bill Leckie THERE are no airs and graces about them. They have hunger and ambition. Advertisement 3 Jim Goodwin fielded a Dundee United team without a single Scottish starter on Thursday Credit: PA 3 Billy Gilmour moved to England then to Italy to get his chance in senior football Credit: Reuters 3 Lewis Ferguson started out at Aberdeen but moved to Bologna instead of staying in Scotland Credit: Getty They appreciate the chance they've been given. Jim Goodwin's explanation of why he put his European hopes in the hands of a busload of foreigners should make every young Scottish footballer sit up and take notice. Advertisement But in the wake of a night when he fielded the first team in Dundee United's competitive history without a homegrown starter, there was another line that should also have cut every chairman, manager and coach in the land to the quick. The one where he admitted his imports 'aren't used to being pampered by academies'. Wow. What an indictment of a system that was supposed to feed our national sport for generations to come, but which is instead providing us with little more than scraps. If that sounds harsh, then check these numbers from games involving our top 12 teams over the past few days. Rangers started two Scots — John Souttar and Findlay Curtis — against Panathinaikos in the Champions League on Tuesday. Advertisement Celtic went with four against Ajax the following evening in Tony Ralston, Dale Murray, Kieran Tierney and Callum McGregor, but of those, only the last two will be first picks once the real stuff starts. Hibs fielded four in the Europa League on Thursday night, Aberdeen had two against Ipswich on Friday. Hearts had six starting Scots against Sunderland on Saturday, while Killie had seven against East Fife and Livi six against Kelty Hearts. Huge thunderstorms at Ajax vs Celtic St Mirren and Dundee played three each against Ayr and Montrose, and Motherwell used just the two in Friday's friendly against Hertha Berlin. Of our entire top flight, only newly-promoted Falkirk kept the flag properly flying, playing ten Scots against Spartans on Saturday along with Brad Spencer, born in London to a Glaswegian dad. Advertisement That means of 132 players lining up at kick-off, only 50 qualify for that national team we're meant to be supplying. So we can grumble about the route Goodwin and United have gone down, as we've heard so many do since that Conference League tie last Thursday. Or maybe we can look at the key reasons why it's getting tougher and tougher for homegrown talent to make it on their own doorstep. Reasons which, while hard to hear and harder still to swallow, the Tannadice gaffer appears to have hit squarely on the head with his reasoning behind his signing policy. One which has taken him to the Netherlands, Croatia, Finland, Macedonia, Sweden and Australia rather than Netherlee, Cupar, Falkirk, Montrose, Sauchie and Auchterarder. Advertisement Because, for me at least, in bigging up the positive traits of a job-lot who fly in the face of everything the legendary Jim McLean put in place during the club's heyday, Goodwin is also giving our academies and the sort of players they produce their character. What he seems to be saying is that our youngsters DO have airs and graces about them, that they DON'T display the same hunger and ambition, that maybe they aren't as appreciative of the chance they've been given. Most damning of all, though? Have YOU got a point for Kris Boyd? Kris Boyd and Roger Hannah chew over the big talking points each week SOMETHING you've just got to get off your chest from the weekend action? A burning Scottish football talking point you can't wait to bring up with Kris Boyd and Roger Hannah? SunSport's GoBallistic show wants to hear from you! So why not help set the Scottish football agenda for the week ahead! Have your say on the game's big topics by emailing us on: GoBallistic@ It's YOUR turn to Go Ballistic! That they've got used to a set-up that pampers them. I wouldn't imagine for a moment he's claiming our academies aren't fit for purpose. Advertisement I also wouldn't dare suggest that he doesn't believe there are any good Scottish kids coming through. But it seems crystal clear that he doesn't believe they're producing the right kind of talent, physically or mentally, for our domestic game. Ask yourself how many are playing regularly for your team. Then ask yourself why so many, from Billy Gilmour to Lewis Ferguson to Aaron Hickey and more besides, have decided the only way to achieve their potential is go abroad and pretty much learn the game from scratch. Of course, Scottish teams playing without any Scottish players is nothing new. Advertisement It was March 2000 when Rangers did it for the first time, starting a 0-0 draw against St Johnstone with an Overseas XI. Stefan Klos, Lorenzo Amoruso, Arthur Numan, Andrei Kanchelskis, Gio van Bronckhorst, Rod Wallace, Jorg Albertz, Claudio Reyna, Tony Vidmar, Seb Rozental and Tugay. Difference was, you could see that coming from a mile off. Rangers fans unfurl giant tifo ahead of Russell Martin's first match It had seemed a natural next step ever since Graeme Souness arrived and more especially once Dick Advocaat took charge. But to see a once self-sufficient club like United go full-on foreign for such a big game? Well, that should pull us all up a bit sharp. Advertisement As, for that matter, should the shrinking number of Scots playing on a regular basis the higher we go up the food chain. If it works as well for Jim Goodwin as it has for, say Stephen Robinson at St Mirren, where he's identified a certain mix of power, pace and stature from England, Ireland and now Jamaica that he doesn't believe is available up here, then good luck to both of them, because their only job is to win games. If seeing Scottish players fritter into the minority pretty much right across the Premiership doesn't worry anyone and everyone who's invested in our game, though? Well, don't say you weren't warned when we run out for a World Cup qualifier one day with 11 guys who all qualified through their grannies.

Luis Diaz set for 75m euro move to Bayern Munich as Liverpool accept latest bid
Liverpool have agreed a 75 million euro deal with Bayern Munich for Reds forward Luis Diaz, the PA news agency understands. The agreement comes after the Bundesliga champions were understood to have reopened dialogue regarding a move after having an initial offer of 67.5 million euros (£59m) dismissed last week. Liverpool are currently on their pre-season tour in Asia and Diaz was still with the team when they arrived in Tokyo on Sunday, but now has permission to leave. The 28-year-old has two years left on his original contract and it is understood the Reds accepted the bid for what they consider to be his market value. Diaz joined Liverpool in January 2022 and made 50 appearances in all competitions last season – scoring 17 goals – as he helped the team clinch the Premier League title. His time on Merseyside also saw him lift the FA Cup and two Carabao Cups. Diaz was left out of Liverpool's 4-2 friendly defeat by AC Milan in Hong Kong on Saturday as speculation surrounding his future continued to mount. Speaking post-match, head coach Arne Slot said: 'In Lucho's (Diaz's) situation, there's a lot of rumours around him lately and I cannot go into that. 'He's training really well with us but we have decided for now not to play him yet. 'I'm used to talking to most of my players on a regular basis. I cannot comment much more about that.' Liverpool have been busy in the transfer window so far and have bolstered their attacking options with Florian Wirtz – who made his first start as a false nine on Saturday – and Hugo Ekitike joining the club. There have also been further arrivals on Merseyside, with Jeremie Frimpong, left-back Milos Kerkez and goalkeeper Giorgi Mamardashvili all signing and the trio played in the second half of Saturday's friendly.
