Football Park's Best Bets | Saturday 4th of October Accumulator

Ladies and gentlemen, the weekend.

A time, for many around the country to kick their feet up, enjoy a couple of days of respite from work, enjoy a gorgeous Sunday dinner with those closest to them, and ignore the looming sense of dread brought about by Monday morning. Sounds awful. We personally prefer the added sensation of getting to the football, sticking together a tasty little accumulator for the day, and almost certainly being let down by the teams we support.

So, why not help you along with the betting side of things?

As yet another round of fixtures looms around the corner, we've put together a mouth-watering 7-leg ACCA for the coming games this Saturday, the 4th of October 2025.

Goals to Flow Up North

Over on Humberside, we're expecting a forecast of goals to rain down over at the MKM Stadium.

Neither side are having a Championship campaign to boast to the end of the world about, in particular Sheffield United - a club looking to get back into the Premier League, but are facing genuine early worries over a return to League One instead.

Hull, whilst not in an extraordinary position, are doing good things in order to crawl away from relegation worries that hung over them consistently last season. Oli McBurnie has been a revalation in the lead of their attack, with the former Sheffield United man providing a whopping 10 goal contributions from his opening nine matches of the season so far. Given The Blades' miserable start to the campaign, that see's them bottom of the table behind only neighbours Sheffield Wednesday, it would be pretty expected to see the Scotland forward punish his former employers.

Where Hull City have been, the goals at either end have followed suit. You'll have to go back to the first game of their season to find the last time the Over 2.5 goals line didn't pay out - a bore 0-0 draw with Frank Lampard's Coventry City. The line has not landed quite as consistently for Sheffield United - four times all season, and most of them being on the receiving end of pure battering's - but Hull's slight leakiness. at times, in the backline may give a bit of inspiration to Chris Wilder's struggling strikers, whereas Sheffield United's awful form will give Hull the confidence to go for it. The goals should flow here.

Both to Strike on Tottenham's Travels

Leeds United are putting up more than a fair fight upon their Premier League return, sitting in a solid 12th in the Premier League with a perfectly aligned record of two wins, two draws and two losses.

They'll be heading into a home clash with a Tottenham side who sit 4th in the league at time of writing, albeit only three points ahead of their Saturday afternoon hosts.

Both teams have got the taste for a Both Teams to Score line in their last few games - in all competitions, it has come in for both of each side's last two showings. The danger here is that Leeds will try and dig their feet in and slow the game down, much to how Thomas Frank's side could look to do if they grab an early lead. However, we're going into with believing that Leeds will be full of confidence and willing to get all three points in front of what will be a raucous home support. That should enable them to get a sight of goal to take advantage of, whereas Tottenham's quality in the final third should see them come away with at least one goal.

It's the riskiest line, perhaps, of this ACCA, but it could hold fabulous value.

sWINdon Town to Take the Spoils

It's a plain and simple line, this. Swindon Town have had a fantastic start to the season, and Newport... haven't.

Newport made a decent enough start to their initial fixtures, getting past Barnet in a cup tie, beating Crawley away from home and holding Notts County to a draw for an impressive point, but since then they have lost all but one game in all competitions. The one they didn't lose was a plucky late-equalising draw away at Tranmere Rovers.

Swindon, meanwhile, are mounting a tempting early push for League One promotion, winning all but three of their ten league fixtures so far this term, and scoring plenty of goals (21) along the way.

Simply put, the visitors should have too much quality for their hosts on Saturday afternoon.

Two at Least in Spanish Clash

Again, not much reading into this line is needed here.

This line has come in in all but one Oviedo games so far this season, and every single Levante game across all competitions thus far.

Both teams are meandering down towards the bottom areas of the La Liga table so far into this campaign, and both will be looking to claim a big win here to move away from any early signs of danger. It hasn't been for a lack of trying, with goals flowing consistently through some eye-catching, open-ended affairs, and there should be all the chance in the world of more than one goal finding the net in this clash.

Portsmouth to Make Mark on Middlesbrough

It seems a little out there to tip the team in 17th place in the Championship to nail a BTTS line against the league leaders, but that's the beauty of our ACCA's - we encourage you to chop and change them into the lines and odds that best suit you.

Under Rob Edwards, Boro have been a machine in England's second tier so far this season, leading the league by two points ahead of Coventry City in 2nd, conceding just 5 goals all season - the tied best record in the league.

With that in mind, it's fair to say that Boro are fairly watertight, but Portsmouth have been no slouches in front of goal so far this term. Their defence has been a bit leaky at stages, which has stopped most of their seven league goals this season from having a tangible impact on their league standing. We expect Boro, who have scored in all but one of their league fixtures this season, to follow suit with a goal away from home, but think Portsmouth have enough in them to get a reply in front of their home crowd.

Goals Galore in Famous Grudge Match

It's one of the most must-see fixtures on the international domestic calendar. And, if it isn't for you, it should be.

When either of the Big Three from Istanbul clash heads, it's always an affair for the ages. These teams hate each other, normally leading to the sides throwing caution to the wind in a bid to do anything possible to claim their share of the bragging rights.

So much so, this line has landed in every single one of these fixtures, with Galatasaray as the home team, that has been played between the two since 2021.

Fresh from the back of a huge win over English giants Liverpool, expect Osimhen and company to have plenty of goals within them as Besiktas make the trip across town.

Royals to Capitalise On Away-Day Woes

Simply put, Mansfield Town's performances on the road so far this season have been somewhat of a blight on their campaign.

At home, they are amongst some of the better teams in the league, sitting in 7th place on home form in the League One table. However, away from home, they sit in a meagre 15th - just one place above Reading.

Now Reading have had their own issues this season, with off-field ones sadly persisting. However, they have been turning it up a bit in recent fixtures, losing only one of their last four matches, winning two and drawing the remaining one. Home is where the heart is for The Royals as well - 2/3 of their points in League One this season have come when playing at the Madejski.

The odds for either of these two teams are pretty similar, but Reading look to be a clever choice given these stats and their recent improvement in form. If you want an extra layer of security, you can take them as a Double Chance for a draw at a reduced price of 1.36 for the line, and 27.82 for the whole ACCA. It's a big reduction in value, but still leaves more than enough to be happy with along with the added security.

All odds correct as of 17:49, 02/10/25. Sports betting, even with advice, is always a risk to your capital that should be enjoyed responsibly. Set a stop-loss, never chase any losses, and never stake what you cannot afford to lose
