September 17: Saturday Football Accumulator – 7/1

With the Premier League returning after an enforced break, we have a stacked schedule across the world of football. So, for those of you looking to stick to a Saturday acca, we've found a handful of helpful tips worth following.

After suffering a last-minute 2-0 loss to Sporting Lisbon while in the Champions League earlier in the week, Tottenham will be looking for an immediate response here. However, while Antonio Conte's men may have seen their 13-match unbeaten streak come to an abrupt end in Portugal a few days ago, Saturday's hosts are enjoying a domestic purple spot at the start of the season. Last seen in Premier League action earning a 2-1 win over ex-Chelsea boss Fulham, he will call his side to lay down a marker here. With 14 points from their first six domestic outings, it's also worth noting that Tottenham are one of only two sides to boast an unbeaten start to the 2022/23 campaign. Despite their disappointing European display in midweek, Spurs should be boosted by a rather sluggish record against Saturday's opponents. Picking up a 3-1 victory in their last encounter against Leicester on May 5, it's worth noting that Conte's men have won each of their last three encounters against the Foxes by an aggregate score of 10-5. Likewise, with Brendan Rodgers' side last seen going down with an ugly 5-2 at Brighton, the former Premier League champions are in the midst of a high-flying nightmare. Picking up just a single point in one of their first six appearances, we back a home win here.

Tip: Turin win and Under 4.5 goals at 5/4

6:00 p.m. Sochaux vs Nimes

While Sochaux would have finally finished six points from a return to Ligue 1 in May, Les Lionceaux have really come out of the traps this time around. Last seen putting on another impressive display as they cruised to a 2-0 win at Dijon, Olivier Guegan's men enjoy the purple spot. Opening this weekend's fixtures with a one-point buffer on the chasing pack, Saturday's hosts have now won each of their last five second-tier outings on the spin. Led by attacking talisman Moussa Doumbia who has now found the net in each of his last three Ligue 2 appearances, the Lions Cubs have also found clinical advantage in the final third. Including a 4-1 loss to Laval in the September opener, it's worth noting that Sochaux netted 14 strikes in their five-game winning streak. However, while Guegan's side are enjoying stellar form, the same cannot be said for a dejected Nimes side. Last seen having to settle for a sluggish point at home against Bastia last weekend, Les Crocodiles have only managed to win one of their last five Ligue 2 outings. Likewise, losing each of their last three matches away from the Stade des Costières and scoring eight goals, Nicolas Usaï's men were also hit by a 3-1 defeat when they faced Sochaux five months ago.

Tip: Sochaux will score over 1.5 goals at 19/20

7:45 p.m. Turin vs Sassuolo

After putting in a hugely impressive display at the San Siro last weekend, Torino were reportedly left heartbroken by their latest 1-0 defeat at the hands of Inter Milan. However, while the Bulls may have lost two of their last three Serie A outings, Ivan Jurić's men have still impressed plenty across Italy this season. Managing to clinch a place in the first half in May, Saturday's hosts are now aiming to try and mount a shock European charge this time around. With West Ham loanee Nikola Vlasic enjoying a proper start to life in Serie A, the Granata will be delighted to make a return to home soil here. Last seen in front of their own fans earning a deserved 1-0 win over Leece, Jurić's men are unbeaten in each of their first three domestic matches at the Stadio Olimpico Grande Torino. Hoping to try and find a way into the top six this weekend, they should feel a chance against a Sassuolo side who have shown prolonged problems. Put...
