Football BTTS Acca Tips: 37/1 accumulator for Saturday's EFL action
Praise thee Lord, the International break is over with the Premier League and EFL returning this weekend as ‘the new-normal’ resumes. There are 35 games kicking off at 3pm from England’s top four divisions on Saturday and I’ve picked out six I like the look of for both teams to score.
As an accumulator the six selections combined pays 32/1. However I’ll be using bet365 for this one as they offer a 15% bonus on winnings for six-fold accumulators which, if the bet wins, will take it to just under 37/1.
The first game I’ve selected for both teams to get on the scoresheet is Blackburn Rovers v Nottingham Forest. Despite playing out a 0-0 draw with Cardiff two weeks ago, Tony Mowbray’s Blackburn have scored three more goals than any other side in the Championship this season.
Adam Armstrong is the league’s top-scorer with five goals and his side have played some attractive football in their opening four fixtures. They take on Nottingham Forest at Ewood Park on Saturday and after tasting defeat in all four games so far this campaign the club have parted ways with Sabri Lamouchi. Chris Hughton has been appointed and I think he will do a good job in a league he knows well with a large squad at his disposal. We could see a bit of a new manager bounce here and I expect the visitors to be much improved.
Staying in the Championship, I’ve also opted for Bournemouth and QPR to find the back of the net. Bournemouth have a very respectable squad for this division and they have taken ten points from their opening 12 games.
Both The Cherries and QPR have seen both teams to score in 75% of their league games this season. That’s three out of four matches, with no team in the division having a perfect 100% BTTS record this campaign. QPR have scored in all four of their league matches so far and I fancy that run to continue here.
Dropping down into League One and the first of two games from the third tier of English football is Bristol Rovers v Burton. The Gas stormed to a superb away win at Lincoln last week and have now put together consecutive victories after failing to win in their first three.
Burton on the other hand have lost their last four games in all competitions. Three of those defeats came with the scoreline of 4-2 and Burton have scored in all but one of their league games this season despite only having three points. Jake Buxton’s side will be desperate to stop this run and I can see both teams scoring down in Somerset.
Fleetwood came out 4-1 winners against Hull last Friday in a fantastic win on the Fylde coast. They have scored 11 goals in their last three games in all competitions at home and both teams to score has landed in 80% of their league matches this term.
Lincoln are the visitors to Highbury on Saturday and they will be keen to get back to winning ways after a home defeat to Bristol Rovers. The Imps have seen both teams to score land in 60% of their league matches this season which includes both of their away games at Blackpool and MK Dons.
The penultimate fixture on this six game slate is Harrogate v Barrow. Both of these sides were promoted to the Football League last season. David Dunn is yet to record his first league win for the Barrovians and it could be a tough task against a Harrogate side who sit eighth in the table after four games.
Barrow have scored in four of their five league games this season and have the highest BTTS rate in the division. I think this could be quite a high-scoring game and fancy both to get on the scoresheet in Yorkshire.
Rounding off proceedings is Walsall v Exeter. Walsall currently hold the longest active unbeaten run in English football, after a run of ten games without tasting defeat. Darrell Clarke’s side have scored in all five of their league games this season and face Exeter who have scored two goals in all of their last three.
Putting these six selections pays around 37/1 with bet365’s accumulator bonus. Best of luck to those following and please always gamble responsibly.
