Weekly Top 10: Back our 1,012/1 acca as the EFL returns this week!
Content Editor at Free Super Tips, Alex was born in the shadow of Old Trafford and is an avid Man Utd fan. After graduating from university he combined his love of football, writing and betting to join FST and now closely follows goings-on in all of the top European leagues.
With the English Football League returning this weekend, the fixture list is finally starting to come to life again and that marks the return of our Weekly Top 10, where I pick out my 10 favourite bets for the coming week.
The EFL is far from the only action, though. Wednesday features the UEFA Super Cup, and Champions League, Europa League, and UEFA Conference League qualification continues in midweek.
These 10 bets can also be combined into a gigantic, week-long acca paying out at 1,012/1 with bet365, where new customers can get £30 in free bets.
Back our 1,012/1 Weekly Top 10 acca here!
Over 3.5 goals in Bodo/Glimt vs Union Saint-Gilloise (Tuesday, 5pm)
The first leg of this tie was a thrilling 3-3 draw in Belgium and that is far from an anomaly when it comes to Bodo/Glimt and Union Saint-Gilloise. Over 3.5 goals has been a winner in two of the hosts’ last three games, while the Belgians’ three fixtures this term have averaged 4.67 goals per game.
Dinamo Zagreb to win to nil vs Kauno Zalgiris (Tuesday, 6pm)
Dinamo Zagreb were utterly dominant in their 5-0 demolition of Kauno Zalgiris in the first leg, limiting the Lithuanians to three shots and none on target. There is little to suggest they will allow Tuesday’s hosts any more joy in the return leg, so expect them to stroll to victory.
NEC Nijmegen to beat Olympiacos (Tuesday, 6:30pm)
NEC Nijmegen may be playing in Europe for the first time since a 2008/09 UEFA Cup campaign, but they were arguably the better side in the first leg and will take a good deal of confidence into the home leg against an Olympiakos side that were beaten by AZ Alkmaar and Ajax in pre-season.
Both teams to score in PSG vs Aston Villa (Wednesday, 8pm)
PSG and Aston Villa played out two thrillers in the 2024/25 Champions League quarter-finals, with the tie ending 5-4 on aggregate, and another high-scoring affair is expected in Salzburg. Both teams have scored in Aston Villa’s last five pre-season friendlies, and Les Parisiens saw goals at both ends in five of their final seven games last term.
Wolves to beat Blackburn (Friday, 8pm)
Wolves may have lost Joao Gomes and Matt Doherty following their relegation, but the arrivals of Raul Jimenez and Kieran Trippier leave them with a very good squad for the Championship and they open against a Blackburn side that ended last term perilously close to the relegation zone.
Norwich to beat West Brom (Saturday, 3pm)
Only the relegated Oxford United and Sheffield Wednesday won fewer points on the road than West Brom last season and the Baggies may be in for a difficult season after losing Karlan Grant and Josh Maja in the summer. Norwich won four of their final seven home games last term and opened their season by thrashing MK Dons 4-1 in the EFL Cup.
Bradford City to beat Peterborough (Saturday, 3pm)
Bradford City missed out on promotion last season, but they had the third-best home record in League One with 15 wins in 23 attempts. 18th-placed finishers Peterborough lost 14 of their third-tier trips, including six of their last eight trips and their February visit to Bradford.
Rayo Vallecano double chance vs Sevilla (Saturday, 8:30pm)
Sevilla finished a dismal 13th in La Liga last season and have done little to improve their squad over the summer. They have lost Akor Adams, who scored ten league goals, and UEFA Conference League finalists Rayo Vallecano went unbeaten in their last four away games last term.
Villarreal to beat Racing Santander (Sunday, 4pm)
After a decline that began in 2011, Racing Santander secured a long-awaited return to the top flight last season, but they face a tough opener against a Villarreal side that qualified for the Champions League last term. The Yellow Submarine won 22 of their 38 games and should get the new season off to a winning start in Santander.
Celta Vigo to beat Osasuna (Sunday, 8:30pm)
Osasuna avoided relegation by the skin of their teeth last season and the summer loss of talented winger Victor Munoz will have hit them hard. They picked up just two points from their last seven away games and Celta Vigo will be full of confidence after securing their joint-best La Liga finish last year.
