Big Winners on Betfair: Punter wins £4K from £5 Champions League acca

It's never too late to place an ambitious acca and win big on Betfair.

That's the lesson after a UK punter place a six-fold at odds of more than 800/1 18 minutes into Wednesday night's Champions League, then watched as each leg came in.

With a £5 stake the bettor landed winnings of more than £4k on Betfair.

What. An. Acca.

An in-play Champions League 6-fold, winning £4,076 from a fiver!

Odds of 813.52, placed 18 minutes into the first half. Crazy. pic.twitter.com/zm4gfC6rwM

The signs were good when Erling Haaland (who else?) put the punter on the road to over 2.5 goals in the first half of Man City v Copenhagen. An own goal sealed it after 39 minutes.

Sevilla's 4-1 hammering at home to Borussia Dortmund was a bad news for Julen Lopetegui - who was sacked by the Spanish club after the match - but brilliant for our bettor.

Adrien Rabiot's late goal for Juventus sealed over 3.5 goals in their win over Maccabi Haifa, while over 2.5 on Real Madrid v Shakhtar was done before half-time, as was over 1.5 on PSG frustrating trip to Benfica.

The bettor would have been celebrating when Reece James struck the third for Chelsea in their 3-0 win over AC Milan at Stamford Bridge.

The Champions League returns with another round next week but tonight attention turns to the Europa League and Europa Conference League, both of which have seen big Thursday night wins on Betfair recently.
