Queen of the South’s clash against Hamilton Academical on Saturday should be a Christmas cracker of a match.

The Doonhamers made it an impressive three wins in a row in all competitions last week and welcome crisis club Hamilton to Palmerston Park.

McBookie is making the hosts narrow outsiders at 13/8 with Accies 29/20 and the draw 23/10.

First scorers include last week’s hero Michael Hewitt at 9/1 and Brennan Dickenson at 5/1.

Both teams to score and a home win is 9/2. It’s 15/4 for the hosts to win to nil and 7/5 for Queen of the South to score two goals or more.
