Football Accumulator Tips

Basel to Win
vs Grasshopper
Reason for tip

Basel have a respectable haul of 20 points from 13 home games and they should be able to see off struggling Grasshoppers. The visitors have seven defeats in 13 trips and overall have just one win in their last 10 games.

FC Thun to Win
vs St Gallen
Reason for tip

This is a meeting between Switzerland’s top two but pacesetters Thun are out of sight with a 14 point lead at the top. Since losing to St Gallen in December, Thun have won 10 straight games and they can make it 11 on the spin as the visitors are in mixed form with just four wins in nine games since the winter break.

Both Teams To Score
Tottenham Hotspur vs Crystal Palace
Reason for tip
View Full Preview

Tottenham are out of form but they have at least been scoring. Both teams have scored in each of their last three games and Spurs have scored themselves in 11 of their last 12. Palace are on a 10-game scoring streak but they have just one clean sheet in their last nine away from home across all competitions. With both defences looking vulnerable and both attacks looking capable, backing both teams to score is a strong play in this Thursday night fixture.

Lyon to Win
vs Lens
Reason for tip
View Full Preview

Lyon won the reverse fixture 1-0 back in August and they have been exceptional at home of late – winning nine in a row at the Parc Olympique Lyonnais – and home advantage should see them claim a win over Lens.

Tottenham to qualify
vs Atletico Madrid
Reason for tip

Atletico Madrid were handily beaten by Arsenal and Liverpool in the League Phase, while they were a mess defensively against Club Brugge in the last round. Spurs won all four home games on their way to finishing fourth in the first round, and they can match an Atletico side who have been far from dominant in Europe in recent seasons.

Bodo/Glimt to qualify
vs Sporting
Reason for tip

Sporting are arguably the weakest of the top-eight sides, while Bodo have won four straight European games including home and away victories over Inter Milan. The Norwegian side went to the semis in the Europa League last year, and they can see off a Sporting side who overperformed their xG numbers at a huge rate in the League Phase.

PSG to qualify
vs Chelsea
Reason for tip

While Chelsea beat PSG 3-0 in the summer’s Club World Cup, Enzo Maresca’s tactical tweaks were key in that victory. Months on, and the Blues look to have gone backwards. PSG clearly took issue with the Blues, and they can claim some revenge after eliminating three Premier League sides on their way to last season’s final.

Real Madrid to qualify
vs Manchester City
Reason for tip

These two sides are meeting in the knockouts for the fifth straight year, and Real Madrid have won three of the previous four meetings, including the last two. The Spanish giants have won eight of their last 10 under new boss Arbeloa at the time of the draw, and they are one of the few sides in Europe with the individual talent to match City.

Football Accumulator FAQs

What is an accumulator bet?

Also known as an ‘acca’, an accumulator is one bet made up of multiple selections. All selections must win for the bet to be successful. Returns are calculated by multiplying the stake by the odds, then multiplying the total return by the second set of odds, and so on. 

Accumulators are particularly popular in football, where punters enjoy placing lots of short odds selections into one bet to bring in big winnings – often with the help of our football accumulator tips!

What are the advantages of an accumulator bet?

There are two main reasons why punters love our accumulator tips. Firstly, the returns can be huge thanks to the long odds that multiple selections can create. Secondly, they can be fun and highly absorbing. If the bets come in at different times, tension is built up. If they are happening simultaneously there are thrills and spills galore as punters look to see how all their bets are faring. Either way, the satisfaction of landing an acca like the one below is unparalleled! It’s why punters love a good football accumulator tip.

How do you place an accumulator bet?

First off you’ll want to see if any good free bets or special offers are available with the bookmakers – our free bets page is great for this.

When it comes to accumulators, punters normally opt for bets with short odds to boost their chances of winning. But if you want big returns, go for longer odds. It’s up to you!

How to work out accumulator odds?

Returns on an accumulator are calculated by multiplying the stake by the odds, then multiplying the total return by the second set of odds, and so on. The easiest manual way to find your total odds is to use the following formula:

1 X (2/1 +1) X (3/1 +1) X (5/1+1) X (8/1 +1) = Total Odds

Or alternatively, you can use an online bet calculator to find your winnings.

How do you win big on football accumulators?

The best way is to be informed. Follow our football accumulator tips on this page, or for more tips from our football betting experts, make sure to check out our football tips page. Besides this, placing bets on bigger odds and increasing your stake would be the mathematical way to win big. Football accumulators give you the perfect opportunity to do this.

All our accumulator tips are fully researched and completely free but we can’t guarantee winners. Please gamble responsibly and visit our gambling guidelines for more information (18+).

How does an each way accumulator work?

Each way accumulators are most often employed in horse racing. These bets are designed to ensure punters still win something if their bet doesn’t win outright. In this sense, a second bet is included which requires all selections to ‘place’ (come close to winning), and would return a profit at a fraction of the price. To use horse racing as an example, this could be on horses to ‘place’ in the top 3 of a race, for example. The definition of ‘placing’ depends on the terms of the each way bet.
