    Wolverhampton Wanderers v West Ham United

    As a starting point, it’s worth noting both teams have scored in 57% of all Premier League matches this season, as the league has become increasingly focused on attacking football and risky build-up play.

    Only three teams have produced both teams to score more often than Wolves, who have seen it land in 19 of 29 fixtures, or 66%.

    The same can be said about West Ham on their travels, with both teams scoring in nine of 14 fixtures.

    There may be nine games to go, but neither of these sides is in true danger of going down, especially West Ham, so there’s nothing to play for. This may be the first wacky, wild and open-ended season clash we see.

     

    Crawley Town v Peterborough United

    Expected goals will tell you that Peterborough should run out comfortable winners of this match, yet Posh continue to find ways to make life hard for themselves this season.

    They did, however, win a thriller when the sides last met, as a late goal handed Peterborough a 4-3 win in the reverse fixture.

    Both teams scoring during a high-scoring loss is something both teams are familiar with on their travels, except Crawley ran riot at Rotherham on the weekend, winning 4-0.

    It defies logic that such an injury-hit, poorly performing team can keep winning with a clean sheet, so both teams scoring is the play here.

     

    Blackpool v Reading

    Blackpool are the most prolific both teams to score team in the league on home soil, with both sides scoring in 13 of 19 matches at Bloomfield Road.

    Reading have put up similar numbers on their travels with both teams scoring in 13 of 18 matches, or 72%.

    Blackpool have won four or five in their late pursuit of a play-off place, which is currently occupied by sixth-place Reading. The Royals are unbeaten in 11 League One matches.

    This has all the makings of a fantastic match with both teams trying to get on the front foot and play attacking football, so goals are likely.

     

    Bristol Rovers v Birmingham City

    Bristol Rovers are 6/1 to win this match and while that’s understandable, we shouldn’t overlook the fact they’ve beaten Barnsley, Peterborough, Huddersfield and Bolton since Inigo Calderon’s arrival.

    The volume of chances they give up is suicidal, yet they keep finding ways to compete in goals and score goals, be it when they’re on top or against the run of play.

    Birmingham have that extra touch of quality that allows them to win most games, yet they’ve conceded in 11 of 17 on the road and four of their last five overall.

    Both teams have scored in 63% of Rovers’ home games and 59% of Brum’s away games.

    Acca FAQs

     

    What is an acca?

    An ‘acca’ is a short term for the word ‘accumulator’, which is hard to spell and takes up a lot of space to write.

    The acca is a bet consisting of several different selections which form one bet.

    Four or more selections make up an acca, and some bookmakers may even offer as many as 20 selections in total.

    The more selections you add to the acca the more your chances of success decrease, but the odds will get bigger.

    To win an acca, you need each of your selections to be successful. For example, all five horses picked for a five-fold acca would need to win for you to claim your winnings, unless you have made your bet each-way.


    What is an each-way acca?

    Each-way accas are mostly used in horse racing.

    An each-way accumulator is two separate bets, one bet for your selections to win, the other to finish in the places.

    For example, if you placed a £5 each-way acca your stake would be £10.

    The bet is lost if one of your selections fails to win or place.

     

    Why bet with an acca?

    You can group multiple bets, of varying prices, together to enhance your odds. A small stake could earn a large profit.

     

    What is a fold in an acca?

    Fold refers to a leg of your acca, for example, a six-fold acca is six separate selections to form one acca bet. 


    What is acca insurance?

    If your bookmaker offers acca insurance, your stake could be returned to you as a free bet if one leg of acca fails.


    What are the benefits of an acca?

     

    Larger odds:

    Bookies multiply the odds of each selection you add to your slip. So even if you place just a pound on a multiple-legged acca you could get a very generous price.

     

    Variety:

    You can select several favourites in your acca, or mix long shots with favourites. The choice is yours.

     

    Multiple sports:

    You can pick selections across a number of different sports or just one event like a football match or one horse racing meeting.

    Small stakes can yield big profits.

     

    Acca insurance:

    Your stake could be returned to you as a free bet if one leg of acca fails.

     

    Cash out:

    Some bookies will offer the chance to cash out during the event


    What are the negatives of an acca?

    - The bigger the odds of your acca your chances of success reduce

    - One failed leg can ruin an acca

    - Cash out isn't always available. You are at the mercy of the bookie with a cash out, they could block the cash out option during the event


    How to calculate your winnings in an acca?

    Multiply the odds of your selections to find out your acca odds.

    It’s a very simple formula but probably easier to work out if you change your odds into decimals.

    Example for a four-legged acca: 2.10 x 3.00 x 1.57 x 2.66 = 26.31 

    A £10 stake would return £263.10p


    Can I place an acca on any sport?

    Yes, horse racing and football are the most common. But tennis, cricket and darts accas are gaining in popularity.

    For example on one single Saturday, you could add a football match, a horse race, a grand prix and a tennis final to your acca.
