Ross County & Raith Rovers clash in the Scottish Premiership Playoff final second leg
Ross County and Raith Rovers battle it out on Sunday in the Scottish Premiership Play-off final second leg, with the Staggies holding a 2-1 advantage after Thursday evening’s rain-soaked clash at Starks Park.
And the best betting sites expect County to finish the job on Sunday and maintain their place in the top tier - the Ross County vs Raith Rovers betting odds see the Dingwall side as the odds-on favourites.
Ross County vs Raith Rovers Betting Odds
- Ross County - 4/5
- Raith Rovers - 7/2
- Draw - 13/5
Ross County dominated Thursday’s first-leg at Starks Park, but a late goal for Raith means there is still work for County to do - they’re a top price of 4/5 with William Hill to win on Sunday.
Championship side Raith head north knowing that they must win in Dingwall if they are to have any chance of gaining promotion - Ian Murray’s side are 7/2 with bet365 to do so.
The draw, which would see County remain a Premiership side, is 13/5 with Paddy Power.
To win the Playoff final outright and seal a spot in next season’s Scottish Premiership, Ross County are 1/9 with bet365, while Raith Rovers are 11/2.
County looked a class above Raith Rovers in Thursday evening’s first-leg at Starks Park, but a late Sam Stanton goal for the hosts means this tie could still go either way.
Don Cowie’s side had cruised into a 2-0 lead courtesy of a Yan Dhanda penalty and Jack Baldwin header but Raith are a side that are notorious for scoring late goals and they did so once again - midfielder Stanton finishing off a superb move in the 82nd minute.
Raith had played poorly up to that point but they finished the match strongly and coach Ian Murray will be looking for his side to start Sunday’s game with that intensity if they are to have any chance of ending their 27 year absence from the top level of Scottish football.
For the hosts, they know that anything can happen in Playoff football, having come back from a two-goal deficit in last year’s final against Partick, eventually prevailing on penalties.
