Football Accumulator Tips

Gijon have the play-off spots in sight and seven points to show from their last three home games. The hosts look well placed to claim the spoils against mid-table Leganes, who have lost their last three away assignments.

These teams are locked on 18 points and both sit in the drop zone. Tondela have found a bit of form as they made it four games unbeaten by winning at Estrella last time out, while Santa Clara are on an 11-game winless run with five defeats in their last six. Tondela can make the most of home advantage and pick up the points here.

Midtylland are on a five-game winning run across all competitions and they remain unbeaten at home this season in the Superliga with seven wins in 10 games. They should have far too much for Brondby, who are on a six game winless run (D2, L4) and have gone three games without scoring.

Cercle Brugge have found some form with four wins and just one defeat in their last eight games. They should be able to overcome a Dender side who are on a four-game losing streak.

Lyon have been scoring freely away from home of late, netting five in a win at Metz and six at Maccabi Tel Aviv. But they have conceded multiple goals in two of their last three road trips an could be vulnerable at the back against a Marseille side that has scored two or more in three consecutive home games. These sides should be able to combine for at least three goals if this game fulfils its potential.

Roma have won six of their last eight home games with fewer than four goals in five of those wins. Meanwhile, Juventus have lost their last three away games in all competitions and could be set for a Champions League hangover after crashing out of Europe in midweek.

Cadiz are on a six-game winless run, with five defeats, and they look set for another defeat at Eibar, who have 30 points from 14 home games and are on a five-game winning streak at this venue.

Both teams have scored in four of Girona’s last five games and in four of Celta’s last five away games across all competitions.

Deportivo Cali have taken ten points from their four Colombia Primera A home games this season and face a Fortaleza side that are yet to win away from home this season, losing their last two trips.

Municipal Liberia have lost their last three Costa Rica Primera Division games, two of which were on home soil. They face an overperforming Sporting San Jose who have won their last three on the road.

Tigre haven’t lost a home game since September and have won all four on home soil this season, so they should have the beating of a Gimnasia LP side that have lost two of their last three away days.

Just one point separates these sides, but San Carlos have won three of their last four games and each of their last four at home, while Cartagines are on a three-game losing streak away from home.

Municipal Liberia have lost their last three Costa Rica Primera Division games, two of which were on home soil. They face an overperforming Sporting San Jose who have won their last three on the road.

Just one point separates these sides, but San Carlos have won three of their last four games and each of their last four at home, while Cartagines are on a three-game losing streak away from home.

Sunderland have been poor travellers this season and Leeds need the points more than the Black Cats so I think it will be a home win for the Whites at Elland Road on Tuesday. Sunderland have won just twice away from home all season and while Leeds’ home form has been mixed, they can pick up an important three points as they look to move further away from trouble.

Chelsea look a decent price away at Aston Villa, who have been struggling recently. The goals have dried up for Unai Emery’s men recently and the same can’t be said for the Blues under Liam Rosenior. Chelsea have also been better away from home under their new boss than at Stamford Bridge.

This will be a game the Hammers will have targeted in their bid to get out of the bottom three. A late Raul Jimenez goal was the difference between the sides in the reverse fixture in December, when West Ham were arguably in their worst form. They look a different team now and with Fulham not keeping a clean sheet since that win at the London Stadium, Nuno will believe that his refreshed squad can take advantage.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Enda: Nottingham Forest have endured a tough week. Vitor Pereira’s side were mugged by Liverpool on Sunday and then made to sweat as Fenerbahce won at the City Ground but couldn’t prevent the Tricky Trees going through in that Europa League tie. A level game at the break is very possible and Brighton have held Forest scoreless in four of the last five league clashes at the Amex so they can forge on in the second half again.

Tom: Fulham have won seven of their 13 home matches and only tasted defeat four times in front of their own fans, with Marco Silva’s side only tasting defeat in one of their last six at Craven Cottage. Tottenham boss Igor Tudor has labelled the club’s relegation fight as the toughest of his career and his side have only won two of their last 11 away games.

Jack: Valencia have lost four of their last five, but that quartet of defeats all came against opponents who start round 26 in the top eight of La Liga and the visit of Osasuna looks a winnable assignment for Los Che.

Jamie: Rock-bottom Metz have struggled on their top-flight return and 13 points from their opening 23 Ligue 1 games suggests they will be back in the second tier before they know it. Brest can add to their woes with a win on the road on Sunday.

Tom: Eintracht Frankfurt may be starting to turn a corner under new head coach Albert Riera, whose only defeat since taking charge was a narrow 3-2 loss at Bayern Munich. Riera’s first home match in the hotseat ended in a resounding 3-0 success over Borussia Monchengladbach and his new side should prove too strong for poor travellers Freiburg on home soil as well.

Aaron: Roma have won nine of 10 home meetings with teams outside the top four, while Juve have lost all three of their visits to the top six. A bad week could get even worse for Luciano Spalletti’s side.

These teams are locked on 18 points and both sit in the drop zone. Tondela have found a bit of form as they made it four games unbeaten by winning at Estrella last time out, while Santa Clara are on an 11-game winless run with five defeats in their last six. Tondela can make the most of home advantage and pick up the points here.

Brest won the reverse fixture 3-2 and goals at both ends could be on the cards again when these sides meet on Sunday. Both teams have scored in four of Metz’s last sim home Ligue 1 games and in six successive away games for Brest across all competitions.

Arsenal beat Chelsea in both legs of their EFL Cup semi-final and can continue their dominance over the Blues on Sunday. The Gunners have won seven of the last 10 meetings between these sides, with no defeats, and have won 10 of their 13 home Premier League games. Chelsea slipped to a 1-0 defeat at this venue in the EFL Cup but that is the only one of their last 11 away games in which they have failed to score, and Arsenal have conceded in each of their last three Premier League games. 

Hamburg’s defence has shipped at least two goals in three of their last five home games. They have also scored multiple goals in those three games and this has the potential to be a high-scoring affair. These sides can combine for at least four goals.

Cadiz are on a six-game winless run, with five defeats, and they look set for another defeat at Eibar, who have 30 points from 14 home games and are on a five-game winning streak at this venue.
