Weekend Cards and Corners Acca: August 27th-28th

There is plenty to get stuck into across Europe’s major leagues with my weekend cards and corners acca. Some big teams need to respond after disappointing starts, and some referee appointments make certain clashes look destined for cards.

In this article:

Juventus vs Roma Preview & Best Bet
AC Milan vs Bologna Preview & Best Bet
Liverpool vs Bournemouth Preview & Best Bet

Cards & Corners Acca Odds

Juventus vs Roma Preview & Best Bet

Italy, Serie A, Saturday, August 27th, 17:30 (UK)

Recent meetings between these sides have been feisty affairs, to say the least. There were eight cards in both meetings last season, and Juventus were reduced to nine men when these sides last locked horns.

Both of Juventus’ and Roma’s opponents so far this season have picked up three cards, and this referee has handed out 18 cards across the two competitive matches he has officiated this season.

Juventus vs Roma Best Bet

The top end of Serie A should be competitive throughout the season, and the chance to gain early ground on a rival should lead to a lot of cards. We also get the added benefit of red cards counting as two on bet365.

Selection: Over 5.5 Cards In The Match (TRACKED BET)
Best Odds: 1.71 (bet365)
Stakes: 8/10

AC Milan vs Bologna Preview

Italy, Serie A, Saturday, August 27th, 19:45 (UK)

Milan have dominated these matches in terms of corners, and I’m expecting Saturday to be no different. The champions had five corners to Udinese’s one in their opening home match, and they should pile on the pressure here.

In the last three meetings between these sides at the San Siro, Milan have won the corner count 9-2, 7-4 and 7-2. I’m expecting them to dominate again here, and they should clear the handicap comfortably if they don’t score early.

AC Milan vs Bologna Best Bet

The Asian corners handicap is set at -3 with bet365, and I’m happy to back that here. The bet has won in eight of the last 10 head-to-heads where Milan have been home, and we would have lost our stake on just one occasion.

Selection: AC Milan Asian Corners -3 (TRACKED BET)
Best Odds: 1.95 (bet365)
Stakes: 7/10

Liverpool vs Bournemouth Preview

England, Premier League, Saturday, August 27th, 15:00 (UK)

Liverpool need to respond after failing to win any of their opening three matches, and Saturday gives them the perfect opportunity to do so. They face newly-promoted Bournemouth at home, and I expect them to make a fast start.

Klopp’s men had a corner in the opening 10 minutes in their last home game against Crystal Palace. They also had one in that period in their last home game last season. The crowd should be urging the players to make a frantic start, and that makes the corners interesting here.

Liverpool vs Bournemouth Best Bet

Using the bet365 bet builder, we can get odds of 1.80 for Liverpool to have a corner in the first 10 minutes. The home support combined with the eagerness to respond after the loss to Manchester United makes this an appealing bet.

Selection: Liverpool Over 0 Corners In The First 10 Minutes (TRACKED BET)
Best Odds: 1.80 (bet365)
Stakes: 7/10

Wolves vs Newcastle Preview

England, Premier League, Sunday, August 28th, 14:00 (UK)

Wolves are yet to secure a victory so far this season, and they take on a Newcastle side with a lot of confidence after earning a point against Manchester City. However, the bookmakers are struggling to split these two.

In recent meetings between the sides, corners have been scarce. There have been fewer than 10 corners in the last six meetings, with an average of six per game over that period.

Wolves vs Newcastle Best Bet

Under 10 Asian corners is priced at 1.90 with bet365. This gives us the additional security of getting our money back should there be exactly 10 in the match. The recent meetings suggest this should land comfortably, but there is an element of uncertainty this early in the season.

Selection: Under 10 Asian Corners (TRACKED BET)
Best Odds: 1.90 (bet365)
Stakes: 7/10

Odds as at 10:00 August 25th 2022. Odds may now differ.

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 football 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.
