Football Accumulator Tips

Fulham are unbeaten in their last five meetings with Leeds and head to Elland Road unbeaten in their last six games, winning four of them. Leeds have failed to win their last four Premier League games and could drop points again.

Peterborough are the standout bet at home in this League One clash with Plymouth. Five wins from their last seven home league games highlights how strong they have been at London Road, and last weekend’s 3-1 victory over Bolton showed they are playing with confidence. Peterborough are also scoring regularly, having found the net in 17 of their last 19 league matches, while Plymouth arrive with defensive issues that are hard to ignore.

The home side are in form – Preston have lost just one of their last seven home games in the Championship – and they can make the most of their Deepdale advantage by seeing off Derby.

Both of these sides are in poor form but Sunderland have at least been drawing the majority of their games and the visit of out-of-sorts Crystal Palace looks a good chance to return to winning ways. The Eagles are winless in nine across all competitions and come into the game after a humiliating FA Cup exit at Macclesfield, while the Black Cats are on a nine-game unbeaten streak at home and recent draws against the likes of Arsenal and Man City on Wearside suggest they should be able to see off Palace.

Wolves’ win over Shrewsbury last weekend made it four games without defeat and they have only lost one of their last seven meetings with Newcastle at Molineux. The Magpies lost the first leg of their League Cup semi-final in midweek and have just two wins in their last nine away assignments.

Aston Villa drew 0-0 at injury-hit Crystal Palace in their last Premier League fixture but they are immensely strong at Villa Park and should defeat Everton, who have won just once in their last seven games.

Vallecano are seven points worse off than their hosts and only basement boys Real Oviedo (nine) have scored fewer goals than their 15, with that lack of firepower likely to cost them in Vigo.

Milan are looking to keep up the pursuit of city rivals Inter at the top of the table and they have not lost since a surprise home reverse against Cremonese on the opening weekend. No team in Serie A scored fewer goals in their opening 20 matches than Lecce this season and the strugglers look primed to draw another blank in this daunting trip.

Malaga are unbeaten in seven in this competition and have won back-to-back road games. The in-form visitors are seeking a fifth successive victory and look backable as big price underdogs against a Cordoba side who have been inconsistent at home.

Porto have averaged 2.22 goals per game on their travels, and they should add to that in Sunday night’s visit to Guimaraes. While Porto could cover this line on their own, Guimaraes have scored in seven of their nine home matches, netting 14 times.

PSV have won 12 straight league games and all nine of their Eredivisie trips this season. Fortuna Sittard have lost all of their clashes with the top three, but they haven’t failed to score in any of their nine home matches, while they netted twice in a defeat to PSV earlier this term.

Mechelen have scored in nine of their 10 away trips this season, while they’ve netted 14 times on their travels. USG have conceded in six of their last eight league games, while they’ve faced 5.6 xG across their last five home league matches. Five of Mechelen’s six clashes with the top six have finished with both teams scoring, so back more goals. 

Villarreal have won five of their last six away games this season and could extend that run against a Real Betis side who have struggled against the top teams this term. The hosts’ inferior defensive record could be the difference between these two.

Marseille are the best bet to win away at Angers on Saturday. They have only lost one of their last nine Ligue 1 games at Stade Raymond Kopa and have won four of their last six away games in the league.

Atletico Nacional are unbeaten in their last 10 competitive home games and should be able to kick off the new season with a victory over Chico, who finished the previous campaign with three losses. Both teams scored in four of Nacional’s last six games, however, and Chico have scored in each of the last six head-to-head meetings so the visitors can at least strike in defeat.

Bucaramanga finished 11 points ahead of Millionarios last season and they should be able to make the most of their home advantage here. Bucaramanga won seven of their 10 Clausura home games, while the visitors lost six of their 10 trips.

Despite a miserable season, Manchester United have only lost two of their last ten games and two of their ten Premier League home matches this season. Manchester City have only won one of the last five Manchester derbies and have drawn their last three Premier League assignments.

Both teams have scored in eight consecutive Chelsea games across all comps and goals at both ends looks likely when they face local rivals Brentford. The Blues have scored in 13 successive home games, while Brentford have bagged 15 goals across their last six overall and with both attacks firing they should both be able to get on the scoresheet.

Fulham are unbeaten in their last five meetings with Leeds and head to Elland Road unbeaten in their last six games, winning four of them. Leeds have failed to win their last four Premier League games and could drop points again.

Liverpool have rebounded following a miserable autumn and are unbeaten in 11 games. They have conceded nine goals in this period, though, while Burnley have scored in eight of their last nine awya games, losing seven times in this run.

Both of these sides are in poor form but Sunderland have at least been drawing the majority of their games and the visit of out-of-sorts Crystal Palace looks a good chance to return to winning ways. The Eagles are winless in nine across all competitions and come into the game after a humiliating FA Cup exit at Macclesfield, while the Black Cats are on a nine-game unbeaten streak at home and recent draws against the likes of Arsenal and Man City on Wearside suggest they should be able to see off Palace.

Villarreal are second in La Liga’s form table across the last eight games, winning seven of those. The Yellow Submarine have won each of their last four on the road, while Betis have won once in five La Liga games.

Wolfsburg look well placed to claim three points at home against bottom-side Heidenheim in the Bundesliga. The hosts are seven places higher in the table and arrive in strong scoring form, having found the net in ten straight league games and scoring at least twice in four of their last five. Heidenheim, by contrast, have lost seven of their last eight away matches, remain without a clean sheet all season and continue to leak goals at an alarming rate.

Luton are worth backing at home against Lincoln in this League One clash. Luton are unbeaten in seven league games on their own ground and have won four of their last six home fixtures, which underlines how difficult they have become to beat. They are also scoring freely, netting at least twice in five of their last six league matches, while Lincoln’s recent defensive record suggests they may struggle to cope.

Ajax’s last two Eredivisie home matches have been 2-0 wins and their unbeaten run now stands at six games with five wins in that sequence. A comfortable home win looks likely as Go Ahead are winless in eight.

Cambridge were far from disgraced when losing 3-2 at home to Birmingham in the FA Cup, but they can respond in a positive manner by defeating Fleetwood at Highbury. Neil Harris’s side are chasing a third straight league win and should get it at the expense of Fleetwood, who are winless in five.

Bristol City are more prolific in front of goal than their hosts, and they should be backed to secure a win at Oxford on Saturday. They are tenth in the Championship, 13 places and 17 points above Oxford.

Aidan: Fulham are unbeaten in six, and they can build on an excellent record against Leeds, having won the last four meetings between the teams.

Gareth: Mansfield have won their last three league games, and they beat Sheffield United in the cup last weekend. Despite that good form, they’re good value to see off rock-bottom port Vale, who are winless in seven trips.

Alex H: Bristol City are pushing to break into the top six of the Championship but things look bleaker for Oxford who are 23rd following one win from their last seven league matches. Despite their struggles, the hosts really suffer big defeats, so back a low-scoring away win. 

Warren: Two of the bottom three meet in League Two, and hosts Shrewsbury are vulnerable after losing their last four league games. Harrogate picked up a good point at Crewe last weekend and then ran Stockport close in the EFL Trophy in midweek, so they can at least avoid defeat here. 

Alex W: Bayern Munich have scored 66 goals in 17 Bundesliga games this season and have notched three or more in eight of their last nine, including each of their last four away games. They face a RB Leipzig side that have lost two of their last three outings by a 3-1 scoreline.
