The Weekend Acca…

This season we’re building a weekly accumulator from the matching selections in our Predictor grid, across the Match Result and Goals markets. Rolling up for some big odds…

So far, we’ve done pretty well, and come close to the jackpot more than once. With 79% of the individual legs proving successful. And many of you cashing-out for a nice profit from the 119/1 acca in Week 2.

Last weekend we got 6 out of 7. And in the midweek games just gone, we hit 7 out of 9…

Week 1 @ 40/1 – 6 out of 8 winning legs
Week 2 @ 119/1 – 8 out of 9
Week 3 @ 120/1 – 6 out of 9
Week 4 @ 13/1 – 6 out of 7
Week 5 @ 79/1 – 7 out of 9

Here’s our Week 6 combo. These picks all match-up across the predictions from myself, my Across the Leagues colleague Shaun, and Chris Sutton at the BBC:

Newcastle v Crystal Palace – Both Teams to Score: Yes
Nottingham Forest v Bournemouth – Under 2.5 Goals
Wolves v Southampton – Both Teams to Score: Yes
Aston Villa v Man City – Man City to win
Brighton v Leicester – Brighton to win
Man Utd v Arsenal – Both Teams to Score: Yes

• The six-fold acca pays 22/1 with Betway 

We’ll be back next week with more stats and predictions for you.

Have a good weekend – and enjoy the football…

Best wishes,

Oliver Upstone
