Odds correct at time of publication

Tottenham vs Manchester United

Spurs are without a plethora of key defenders but boast plenty of attacking talent, as shown by their 5-0 rout of Southampton on Saturday, and the goals could flow when they host Manchester United, who are likely to help put on a goalfest, with momentum at a high following their 2-1 defeat of rivals City on Sunday.  

Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers

Four of Chelsea’s five victories in this competition have produced four or more goals and their home matches have seen them outclass Gent 4-2 and swat aside Noah 8-0, suggesting another high-scoring victory is on the cards against Shamrock Rovers. 

Cercle Brugge vs Istanbul Basaksehir

Basaksehir have gone six away games without a win and have already been thrashed 5-1 on their travels in this competition by Celje, suggesting they may struggle in the Belgian capital against a Cercle Brugge side who have lost only one of their five Conference League matches. 

Celje vs The New Saints 

Celje have suffered defeat only twice in 15 home games this season and should have far too much for The New Saints, who have lost four of their five Conference League matches, with three of those reverses coming to nil.

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.
