Looking to follow up on on last week's 5/16.00 winner, football tipster Andy Robson has another Saturday Acca for us, this time priced at 6/17.00 looking at matches in the EFL and Scotland.


After a couple of narrow misses in the weeks prior I brought in a 5/16.00 winning acca on my Betfair column last week and I will be looking to strike while the iron is hot to go back-to-back at a similar price.

Leg 1 - Birmingham v Swansea - Saturday 15:00
Tip: Both teams to score @ 8/131.61

A match-up between two new managers and one that should bring goals.

Birmingham City and Swansea City have endured their struggles this term. Blues were solid under John Eustace before Wayne Rooney failed with a revolutionary approach. Michael Duff never clicked with the Swans fanbase and caretaker Alan Sheehan hasn't been able to put too much of a stamp on things.

Both clubs have now got what they want. Tony Mowbray is the steady, experienced voice at the helm of Saturday's hosts while the visitors have employed Luke Williams, a man who aligns far more with the perceived philosophy of the Swans.

Both Mowbray and Williams like their sides to play attacking football and be on the front foot. They want to create chances and dominate the ball. The plan for both is to put their stamp on things as quickly as possible to unite their fanbases.

There is a lot of vulnerability to contend with, however. Confidence hasn't been high in either camp because of messy campaigns and poor decisions by their boards, meaning both sides should get opportunities here. Williams' Notts County side saw both sides score in two-thirds of their league matches across a season and a half while Blues have kept only three clean sheets in their last 18 outings.


Leg 2 - Blackpool v Exeter - Saturday 15:00
Tip: Blackpool to win + Over 1.5 goals @ 7/101.70

Neil Critchley's men really do love to be beside the seaside; their home form is so strong.

On the fringes of the play-offs appears to be Blackpool's permanent position this season so far, but they will be desperate to string some results together to break into the top six. This is a great opportunity for them to do so, and with top scorer Jordan Rhodes confirming that his loan spell at the club is to continue, they should be in a positive mood coming into this match.

Blackpool currently top the home table in League One, with 29 points from their 14 home matches. Not only that, but they are also the first team to notch 30 home goals, and their recent goalscoring form at home is very strong. Their recent home League One fixtures read: 2-0, 3-1, 3-0, 1-2, 4-0, 2-4, 3-2, 3-0, so plenty of goals and plenty of big wins.

The opponents here, Exeter, may have won last week but that was against one of the poorest sides in the division in Carlisle, and, even then, they scraped it by a single goal. Exeter have avoided defeat five times on the road this season, but they have lost seven of their last eight away games, drawing the other one of those matches.

It would be fair to say that trips to the North West have not been kind either. Their last trip to Lancashire resulted in a chastening 7-0 defeat to Bolton, the week before they had lost 3-0 to Fleetwood, and Exeter have also lost 2-0 to Derby, 4-1 to Charlton, and 3-0 to Oxford on the road this season.

The final piece of evidence for this bet is that Blackpool have averaged a 0.8 xG difference in their last 10 matches at home, whereas Exeter have a really poor -1.2 xG difference. I fancy Blackpool to win and adding over 1.5 goals means if they win by any scoreline other than 1-0 the leg will land.


Leg 3 - Crewe v Swindon - Saturday 15:00
Tip: Over 2.5 goals @ 40/851.47

The game between Crewe and Swindon has the potential to be an explosive affair. The home side have won their last two games by a 1-0 scoreline, but have otherwise been involved in some crackers, with a recent 3-3 draw against Accrington Stanley a prime example.

Lee Bell's side have scored 48 and conceded 39 in their 26 fixtures in League Two, demonstrating their attacking flair but also their defensive vulnerability. Top scorer Chris Long has looked sharp having come back into the fold, scoring two in his last three, and alongside Courtney Baker-Richardson, they are likely to cause plenty of problems for a Swindon defence that leaks goals.

In fact, Michael Flynn's side have conceded 52 this campaign, with only Colchester having a worse defensive record. The visitors have been good entertainment value with 74% of their games seeing over 2.5 goals, which increases to 79% when focusing on their away matches. This game finished 2-1 to Crewe last season while the reverse fixture at the County Ground ended 2-2, I'm happy to back overs as the shortest pick of my acca.


Leg 4 - Morton v Partick - Saturday 15:00
Tip: Over 2.5 goals @ 6/101.60

Goals are on the cards at Cappielow, where Greenock Morton will play host to Partick Thistle in a Scottish Championship clash.

Partick are overs specialists. From their last 26 games across all competitions, 24 have produced at least three goals. The two exceptions were both against Inverness Caledonian Thistle in the league.

The Jags are in excellent scoring form, netting four against Arbroath last weekend and showing that they have strength in depth in their side as Tomi Adeloye came off the bench to score twice. However, they have kept only one clean sheet since the October international break, which came last weekend against the league's bottom side, and that's hardly an inspiring statistic as they visit one of the division's form clubs.

Morton have scored three times in each of their last two games, including a thrilling 3-2 success away to promotion-chasing Dundee United last weekend. Seven of their last 10 league matches have produced at least three goals, and while they have produced two scoreless draws in that run, those were against the league's two tightest clubs.

History, too, suggests this will be a game with goals. Six of the last seven between these teams have not only seen at least three goals, but both teams find the net. Form points to a repeat in this encounter.

Back Andy Robson's four fold here @ 6/17.00
