Football accumulator tips: This Week's Acca from Sporting Life for Saturday 20/01/24
After Walsall v Accrington was postponed, the remaining four selections in This Week’s Acca are now available to back as an enhanced fourfold via the link below. Bets on the original acca will be settled as per Sky Bet’s terms and conditions.
- PETERBOROUGH v Shrewsbury
- Lincoln v DERBY
- GILLINGHAM v Forest Green
- MK DONS v Morecambe
Our focus comes from the third and fourth tiers of English football, with four home sides and one strong away team fancied for success.
The first of those is DERBY, our only visitors but one who are pushing for promotion back to the Sky Bet Championship.
The Rams have won their last five away games, and they travel to take on Lincoln who are without a victory in their last eight.
Staying in League One, and PETERBOROUGH are backed for another win over Shrewsbury having done the job when they met in Shropshire before Christmas.
The Posh are well in the title mix, while Shrewsbury's home form may be enough to keep them in the division. On the road, they've lost nine of 13.
We go into League Two now, and we'll start with GILLINGHAM who host now managerless Forest Green. Troy Deeney departed after just six games - no wins across that run.
But for all of the chaos at Forest Green, Gills have been in good form themselves. They've won their last three league outings.
Mike Williamson's arrival at MK DONS has thrown them into the play-off places. Another victory is backed when they host struggling Morecambe.
Five of MK's last six games have been wins, with three of those being to-nil as well, while Morecambe have failed to win any of their last six.
- Wrexham (v Newport) and Bristol Rovers (v Blackpool) were other teams discussed on the This Week's Acca podcast but didn't make the final accumulator...
Every week Tom Carnduff is joined by James 'Jimmy the Punt' Cantrill, Jake Osgathorpe and Joe Townsend to thrash out who will feature in the coming weekly (or midweek) accumulator, running through a list before settling on what they believe is a potentially winning acca - aiming for a minimum 10/1 price.
The latest episode - 23/24 - #37 - What a Sh*tshow! - is available now via Apple Podcasts, Spotify and your chosen podcast provider.
