Football Accumulator Tips

Real Betis have drawn six of their last ten games and there was very little to split these two teams in the first game so it may be worth backing Braga to avoid defeat in Spain.

Villa have scored in six consecutive home games  and have conceded in four of those. Bologna have to go for it as they chase a two-goal deficit and they do have a good scoring record on their travels, having gone 19 trips without drawing a blank. The visitors will leave space to exploit as they commit men forward and there is a strong chance we’ll see goals at both ends at Villa Park.

Freiburg have won four of their last five games and with Celta Vigo having to go for it at some point, the visitors could benefit. They look overpriced to follow up their 3-0 win in the first leg with another success.

Porto are unbeaten in eight games and were unfortunate not to win the first leg. They face a Nottingham Forest side that have only won two of their last ten fixtures.

Port Vale head into this game just 48 hours after their draw with Barnsley and the relegation-threatened visitors have conceded 15 goals in their last four away games. They have conceded three or more goals in three of these trips, while Peterborough have scored three or more in three of their last four at home, totalling 15 goals in this run.

Villa have scored in six consecutive home games  and have conceded in four of those. Bologna have to go for it as they chase a two-goal deficit and they do have a good scoring record on their travels, having gone 19 trips without drawing a blank. The visitors will leave space to exploit as they commit men forward and there is a strong chance we’ll see goals at both ends at Villa Park, with the hosts expected to come out on top after beating Bologna three times over the last two seasons.

Bromley remain top of the League Two table heading into the business end of the season, and they have taken 13 points from the last 15 available at home. They are yet to lose a home game in the league, while Cambridge United have failed to win their last four on the road.

Freiburg have won four of their last five games and with Celta Vigo having to go for it at some point, the visitors could benefit. They look overpriced to follow up their 3-0 win in the first leg with another success.

Strasbourg need to go on the offensive to overturn the first-leg deficit and played well in defeat last week. They should be able to get the win on the night, but they have conceded in four of their last five home games and red-hot Mainz are bound to get plenty of opportunities to get on the scoresheet.

Port Vale head into this game just 48 hours after their draw with Barnsley and the relegation-threatened visitors have conceded 15 goals in their last four away games, losing each of them. They have conceded three or more goals in three of these trips, while Peterborough have scored three or more in three of their last four at home, totalling 15 goals in this run.

These sides have met three times over the last two seasons and Villa lead the head-to-head 3-0, by an aggregate score of 6-1. A Bologna goal is expected but Villa can still win comfortably and after a 3-1 win in Italy last week they can finish the job on Thursday.

Strasbourg need to overcome two goal deficit if they are to have any chance of progressing. They played well in defeat during the first leg, having 66% possession and generating an xg of over one. With home advantage they are very likely to win this match, even if they do not qualify for the semi final.

Villa have scored in six consecutive home games  and have conceded in four of those. Bologna have to go for it as they chase a two-goal deficit and they do have a good scoring record on their travels, having gone 19 trips without drawing a blank.

Fiorentina will need to come out on the front foot as they chase a 3-0 deficit, and they have scored in 11 of their last 13 home matches. They face a Crystal Palace side that have seen goals at both ends in seven of their last eight away from home.

Porto are unbeaten in eight games and were unfortunate not to win the first leg. They face a Nottingham Forest side that have only won two of their last ten fixtures.

League leaders Racing Santander look to be getting back on track after a bit of a wobble with two wins in their last three games, and a trip to a Real Sociedad B side in freefall looks a good chance to strengthen their hold on top spot. The hosts have just one point to show from their last five games and they’ve scored just one goal during that run. Racing won the reverse fixture and can complete a league double on Friday.

Despite finishing 1-1, FC Cologne would have felt they should have got all three points when they last faced St Pauli, having dominated the game throughout 90 minutes. They’ve found some form recently and will be confident of picking up three points against a St Pauli side who not won a game since February

Inter Milan have a stranglehold on the Serie A title race, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in their last five league outings and Cagliari have scored in four of their last five trips. Back the hosts to win and concede.

Blackburn were outclassed in a 3-0 defeat to Southampton on Tuesday and another of the Championship’s best sides should sweep them aside on Friday. Leaders Coventry are unbeaten in five away games, winning four, and can make it five home matches without a victory for Rovers. Rovers have failed to score in three of their last five matches and may draw a blank again against a Cov side who have five clean sheets in their last seven games.

Las Palmas have the play-offs in sight and have won their last four home games. They should be expected to beat a Leganes side who have just one win in 10, but goals at both ends looks likely as both teams have scored in five of Leganes’ last six games and they score on average just over a goal per-game on their travels.

Tigre are on a nine game winless run and have just one clean sheet in their last eight. The Argentine side may struggle for a shut-out against visitors Macara, who have scored in five successive games, but Tigre have at least scored in 11 of their last 12 at home so both teams look capable of scoring.

Platense are on a nine-game winless run and have scored a measly two goals in total across that period. The Argentine visitors seem set for defeat at Penarol, who have won four of their last seven games.

San Lorenzo are in form as they are unbeaten in five and have four wins in their last six at home. With home advantage, they should be able to overcome Ecuadorian visitors Cuenca – who have two defeats in their last four away games.

Despite finishing 1-1, FC Cologne would have felt they should have got all three points when they last faced St Pauli, having dominated the game throughout 90 minutes. Cologne unbeaten in last four and St Pauli have failed to register a win since February, so the visitors look capable of taking at least a point.

Lens’ Ligue 1 title hopes are fading and last week’s 3-0 defeat at Lille has done nothing to help. They remain exceptional at home, however, and 13 wins in their last 14 outings at Stade Bollaert-Delelis suggests they can bounce back against Toulouse.

Blackburn were outclassed in a 3-0 defeat to Southampton on Tuesday and another of the Championship’s best sides should sweep them aside on Friday. Leaders Coventry are unbeaten in five away games, winning four, and can make it five home matches without a victory for Rovers.
