Accumulator tips and predictions for Thursday

Racing Post football expert Dan Childs has picked:

Norwich to beat Millwall @6-5 with BetMGM

Watford to beat Portsmouth @4-5 with BetMGM

Carlisle to beat Morecambe @10-13 with BetMGM

Fleetwood to beat Chesterfield @11-8 with BetMGM

Total odds: @16-1 with BetMGM

Odds correct at time of publication

Norwich vs Millwall

Norwich have lost just twice at home in the Championship in 2024 and their Carrow Road consistency can continue at the expense of Millwall, who are winless in three on their travels.

Watford vs Portsmouth

Watford have racked up 26 points from ten Championship home games and should be too strong for fifth-bottom Portsmouth, who have won only once on their league travels.

Carlisle vs Morecambe

Carlisle created the better openings in Saturday's 0-0 draw at Port Vale and they can claim a massive three points at home to fellow League Two strugglers Morecambe, who have lost four on the bounce.

Fleetwood vs Chesterfield

Fleetwood are hoping to snap a six-game winless sequence and have every chance against injury-hit League Two promotion chasers Chesterfield, who have lost three of their last four away games.

Football acca FAQs

What is a football accumulator (acca)?
A football accumulator, commonly referred to as an 'acca', is a single bet that combines multiple individual bets into one. Each selection within the accumulator must win for the bet to pay out, offering higher potential returns but at increased risk compared to single bets.

Can I place an acca on different markets?
Yes, you can combine various markets in an acca, including match winners, total goals, both teams to score, and more. However, most betting platforms require that selections within an accumulator are not related to ensure the bet is valid.

What is the advantage of placing an accumulator bet?
The main advantage of an accumulator bet is the potential for higher returns from a smaller stake since the odds of each selection are multiplied together. It adds excitement to watching multiple matches, as each leg of your acca needs to be successful for a return.
