The Acca pays approximately 11/2

Sunday's edition of the Daily Acca was an 8/1 winner for Paul Robinson yesterday and he's aiming to follow that up with this 11/2 shot. Here are his selections:

French second tier clash to produce goals

Bet 1: Back BTTS in Lens v Paris FC @ 5/6 - KO 19:45 BST

This is a French Ligue Two fixture that Lens can secure their safety in with a win. The three points would move them seven points clear of the relegation zone with only two games to go and they are three unbeaten at home.

Paris have nothing to play for themselves as they sit in ninth place with 57 points, but a win would actually move them level on points with Clermont who are in fifth.

It's the goal-side of things that interests me however as both teams to score backers would have collected in the hosts' last three on this ground and the same can said for six of the visitors' last eight on their travels.

The pair are in good goal-scoring form as Lens netted three against Le Havre in their most recent home match with Paris put four past Quevilly Rouen when they were last in away action.


The Betis defensive machine to keep on rolling

Bet 2: Back Betis to keep a Clean Sheet @ 1/1 - KO 20:00 BST

The form team in La Liga are Real Betis and although their run of six consecutive victories came to an end last weekend, the fact that they got a draw at Atletico Madrid should be applauded.

The final score in that game was 0-0 and that was the sixth clean sheet in a row that Quique Setién's men have kept. At home it's four on the bounce and victory tonight would all but confirm their participation in next year's Europa League.

Their opponents are Malaga and they sit rock bottom of the table with 20 points from their 34 matches to date. They have netted a mere 22 goals this year and only eight in 17 on the road.

It has not be noted that they did beat Sociedad last time out, but that was at home and away from La Rosaleda it's four blanks in six.


Toothless Hornets to be stung again

Bet 3: Back Tottenham to win to nil @ 4/5 - KO 20:00 BST

We finish in the Premier League as Tottenham should enjoy a comfortable stroll at Wembley against Watford and move to within one point of Liverpool - with a game in hand.

Spurs haven't been firing on all cylinders of late as they were beaten in the FA Cup last weekend by Manchester United and prior to that they had been held by Brighton and beaten by Manchester City.

Fixtures don't come much easier than Watford at present however as Javi Gracia's side are in the midst of a six match winless run. They did draw 0-0 with Palace when they were last in action, but that was at Vicarage Road and their away results make eye-watering reading if you are a Hornets fan.

Since a 3-0 success at St James' Park all the way back in November, Watford have played 10 times away from home in the league and taken just a single point. They have failed to find the net in over nine hours of away football and prior to the visit of Man City, Tottenham had kept four clean sheets in a row at home.
