Tuesday Evening Acca: Tuesday, December, 27th

The turkey and presents will threaten to become a distant memory for most as Tuesday rolls around, though it’s business as usual up and down the country for a selection of football clubs. Three picks, all with an intriguing look to them, are detailed below for bettingexpert’s take on the UK’s Tuesday night of football.

Chelsea vs Bournemouth Preview

England, Premier League, Tuesday, December 29, 17:30 (UK)

Chelsea’s recent form makes for grim reading, with two wins in their last eight and four defeats over that period.

They have failed to score in half, including each of their last three, with a 4-1 thumping courtesy of Brighton right amongst the results.

This certainly looks to have been a regression under Graham Potter, and the underlying data agrees with xG generated down and xGA up, since he took charge.

The visit of Bournemouth represents a real chance to rectify this form and kickstart the rest of their season.

At 10/1, the Cherries expected chance of victory is just over 9%, though they may feel this is a touch long given how productive Gary O’Neil’s temporary tutelage was.

In fact, it was so productive he got the role permanently. He has made the south coasters a lot more competitive, with the switch to two strikers proving an intriguing tactical stance.

Chelsea vs Bournemouth Best Bet

Big Kieffer Moore enjoyed a stint in the starting XI pre-World Cup and rewarded his gaffer’s faith with three goals in as many games.

His rise to the pinnacle of English domestic football has seen him play in every league from the 6th tier up.

His huge stature makes him a defender’s nightmare, and, given the form he is in, I think his price to find the net is too large.

Selection: Kieffer Moore anytime goalscorer
Best Odds: 5/1 (bet365)
Stakes: 2/10

Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest Preview

England, Premier League, Tuesday, December 29, 20:00 (UK)

Nottingham Forest head to Old Trafford, potentially, with as many as seven absentees. Giulian Biancone, Cheikhou Kouyate, Omar Richards, Moussa Niakhaté and Dean Henderson are all unavailable, and Morgan Gibbs-White and Serge Aurier are doubts.

It is a shame for Steve Cooper’s side, who had been gathering momentum heading into the World Cup break.

The Tricky Trees had taken eight points from seven games and, barring the 5-0 thumping at the Emirates, had only shipped four goals, keeping three clean sheets over that period.

With veteran keeper Wayne Hennessey expected to fill in between the sticks, I fail to see them maintaining this solid defensive record here.

Manchester United also have an impressive list of unavailable players. Most of theirs are World Cup induced, with finalists Lisandro Martínez and Raphael Varane unavailable.

Illness to Harry Maguire could leave the hosts very light in central defence. However, I still think they will cruise to victory.

Manchester United vs Nottingham Forest Best Bet

Backing the Red Devils to overcome a -1.5 Asian handicap is the play here, meaning they will have to win by two goals for the bet to win.

Considering they are around 1.4 to score twice, this looks like a nice way in.

Forest are the worst side away from home in the division, only picking up two points and a few thumpings along the way.

They have travelled to the top three sides in Arsenal, City and Newcastle, losing by an aggregate scoreline of 13-0, with this bet clicking in each.

Selection: Manchester United Asian Handicap (-1.5) (TRACKED)
Best Odds: 1.93 (bet365)
Stakes: 10/10

Reading vs Swansea Preview

England, Championship, Tuesday, December 29, 20:00 (UK)

Swansea will head to the Madejski to take on Reading with their tails up.

The Swans found themselves 3-0 down in their last game against Coventry with 35 minutes to play, yet they somehow scored three times to salvage a point.

Goals from Joel Piroe, Jay Fulton and Liam Cullen ensured they left England with a share of the spoils.

The Royals represent another stern test, with Paul Ince’s side defying all expectations this campaign, currently sitting in mid-table.

The sides’ respective points tallies are identical, and whilst I struggle to split these, the bookies have the away side as favourites which seems odd to me.

Swansea have not won any of their last six away games, while Reading boasts one of the best home records, 4th best to be exact, in the division

Reading vs Swansea Best Bet

Taking Reading +0.25 Asian Handicap is the play here as it means we would have half a stakes winner if they draw, and the bet is paid out in full if they win, giving us some extra security.

With the Royals only losing twice on home soil this season, this bet would have returned a profit in 82% of their league games.

Selection: Reading Asian Handicap (+0.25)
Best Odds: 1.70 (bet365)
Stakes: 5/10

WHAT IS A FOOTBALL ACCA?

A football acca is an accumulator bet, a type of bet that consists of several selections across different matches that are combined together into one single bet. An acca usually. consists of at least four selections but many more can be included. There will be odds for the single bet as a whole which is calculated by multiplying the odds of all of the selections. A football acca is one of the most popular ways to bet. This is the case because they can create potentially massive odds for a small stake. Many punters choose to create Premier League accas which is what we have created here.If one of these selections loses then the football acca will lose. This type of bet needs every selection to win in order to succeed.
