Football Accumulator Tips: 18/1 Fouls Acca for Saturday's Premier League action

Six matches take place in the Premier League on Saturday afternoon, with five of those kicking-off at 3pm. Here at BettingOdds.com we’ve put our favourite fancies into an accumulator, which this week pays 18/1, combining three selections from the player fouls market.

Nottingham Forest travel to Chelsea on Saturday as Steve Cooper’s side look to take another step towards survival after their 4-3 win against Southampton last week. 

The first player we are targeting to concede at least two fouls this weekend is Morgan Gibbs-White. As mentioned, Forest are still fighting for their lives and we expect them to be well up for this one against a Chelsea side who have won just one of their last ten matches in all competitions.

Gibbs-White has been outstanding this season and is probably the pick of all the many many signings that The Tricky Trees have made since their return to the big time. When it comes to fouls, the 23-year-old has given away 2+ in six of his last 10 away from The City Ground, with this selection also landing in three of his last five on the road. At 23/10 as a single, this looks a shade too big, with Forest desperate for any form of result at The Bridge.

Next up it’s Nelson Semedo whose Wolves side travel to Old Trafford to take on Manchester United. No player this season has picked up more cards in the top-flight for the boys from the Black Country, who lead the way along with Ruben Neves with 11 each to their name.

Semedo should be the direct opponent of Marcus Rashford in this game and looking back at the defender's recent fouls totals in his last five matches, his numbers read: 2,2,2,2,2. No player has given away more fouls for Wolves this season, with Semedo very much the cornerstone of our 18/1 acca on Saturday afternoon.

The final player we are backing from the fouls market is Bournemouth’s Matias Vina. The Cherries travel to the capital to take on Crystal Palace who are the second most fouled side in the division this season.

It’s unsurprising that Palace rank so highly in terms of drawing fouls when you consider they have players such as Wilfried Zaha, Eberechi Eze, Jordan Ayew and Michael Olise. 

At Selhurst Park Matias Vina will be up against Michael Olise should he start on the right-side of the Palace attack as he has been lately. Looking back at Olise’s fouls-drawn figures over the last 13 games, they read: 4,4,2,1,2,2,2,3,2,3,3,3,3.

Considering Olise’s ability to draw players into giving away fouls and Matias Vina giving away two fouls in his last away match, we are willing to back a repeat here, despite a rather small sample size for the Uruguayan defender.
