The Carling Nations Cup starts tonight and William Hill make the Republic of Ireland their 11/10 favourites to win the tournament. Scotland are the 5/2 second favourites. Scotland are playing Northern Ireland on Wednesday evening and William Hill make Scotland the 6/5 favourites to beat Northern Ireland who are 15/8. The last time the two sides played, the pair played out a nil-nil draw, which is 6/1 to happen this time around, while Allan McGregor saved a David Healy penalty. Hills are offering 25/1 that the Scottish stopper saves a penalty from his new Rangers team-mate and 10/3 that a player is awarded a red card during the match.

Much will be expected of Charlie Adam following his fine performances for Blackpool this season and Hills make him 12/1 to score first, while he is 15/2 to score anytime and Scotland to win.
