Coventry vs Watford
Coventry are top of the Championship after winning seven of their 11 league games, scoring 31 goals in the process. Their underlying numbers are remarkable – their expected goal difference of +16.2 is nine goals better than any other team in the division – and they should be able to keep that up when they host Watford, who have taken just two points from a possible 15 on their travels this season.
Ipswich vs West Brom
Ipswich have lost two on the spin but they had won three of their four games prior to that and are fancied to get back to winning ways when they welcome West Brom to Portman Road. The Baggies have lost three of their last four away games and will be without midfielder Toby Collyer, who limped off in their 2-1 loss to Watford in midweek.
Bolton vs Cardiff
Cardiff may be top of League One but they face a real challenge when they visit Bolton, who have been impressive at home this season. The Trotters are unbeaten in six outings in their own back yard and could get the better of a Cardiff side who are missing key defender Dylan Lawlor, who suffered an injury on international duty.
Cheltenham vs Walsall
Walsall’s historic collapse at the end of last season looks to have had no lasting effects on their squad this time around. They are flying at the top of League Two after winning eight of their opening 13 games. The Saddlers should be backed to get the better of Cheltenham, who are currently just outside the relegation zone and have the worst defensive record in the division, conceding 25 times in 13 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.
