Wolves vs Chelsea
Wolves have lost seven of their 11 games in all competitions this season and a 3-2 defeat to relegation rivals Burnley at the weekend will have taken the wind out of their sails. They look set for defeat against a Chelsea side who have won five of their last seven games and should simply outscore their leaky hosts.
Swansea vs Manchester City
Swansea have plodded to a mid-table spot in the Championship this season, scoring just 12 goals in as many games, and they should be outclassed by Manchester City, who are fancied to bounce back from a 1-0 defeat against Aston Villa in style by sweeping aside their second-tier opponents.
Hibs vs Rangers
Rangers have kept only one clean sheet in nine league games and that run looks set to continue against Hibs, who have netted six times in their last two matches. Both teams to score and over 2.5 goals has landed in five of Hibs’ last seven home games and a repeat of that is fancied at Easter Road in Danny Rohl’s first away league game as Light Blues boss.
Kilmarnock vs Aberdeen
Aberdeen have had a poor campaign but they have won two of their last three league matches and could get the better of Kilmarnock, who have suffered back-to-back defeats at the hands of Hearts and Rangers. Killie are not creating many chances and look vulnerable against the Dons.

Football acca FAQs
What is a football accumulator (acca)?
A football accumulator, commonly referred to as an ‘acca’, is a single bet that combines multiple individual bets into one. Each selection within the accumulator must win for the bet to pay out, offering higher potential returns but at increased risk compared to single bets.
Can I place an acca on different markets?
Yes, you can combine various markets in an acca, including match winners, total goals, both teams to score, and more. However, most betting platforms require that selections within an accumulator are not related to ensure the bet is valid.
What is the advantage of placing an accumulator bet?
The main advantage of an accumulator bet is the potential for higher returns from a smaller stake since the odds of each selection are multiplied together. It adds excitement to watching multiple matches, as each leg of your acca needs to be successful for a return.
