13th November: Saturday’s Football Accumulator – 9/1

With the international break taking center stage this weekend, we still have a host of footballing action from across Europe. So, for those of you looking to stick on a Saturday flutter, we have found a handful of helpful tips that are worth keeping an eye out for.

Saturday November 13th

BST 15:00 Exeter City vs Oldham 

Starting with Saturday’s hosts, putting on a stunning first-half flurry earlier in the week as they cruised their way to an action-packed EFL Trophy victory, the mood in Exeter’s camp should be at a real high. Eventually claiming a remarkable 5-3 win against Bristol Rovers on home soil, the Grecians are in the midst of a stellar purple patch. Opening this weekend’s fixtures sat just a single point adrift of finding a route into the automatic spots, Matt Taylor’s side have gained a host of plaudits from across League Two this season. Smelling a golden chance at St James Park on Saturday afternoon, Exeter are remarkably unbeaten in each of their last 14 straight contests across all formats, a run that stems all the way back to the middle of August. Gaining a reputation for their free-scoring displays in the final third, this weekend’s hosts also have one attacking talisman enjoying his own stellar run. With Matt Jay already racking up nine League Two goals since opening the 2021/22 campaign, a struggling Oldham should face another stern test on their travels. Last seen in midweek getting hit with a 3-2 defeat away at Tranmere on EFL Trophy duties, the Latics have managed to muster just a single win from any of their last nine contests across all formats. Likewise, in the midst of a five-match winless run, we’re backing a home victory at St James’ Park here.

Tip: Exeter City win & over 1.5 goals @ 11/10

15:00 Altrincham vs Boreham Wood

While Boreham Wood might have had to settle for a sluggish bottom-half finish last season, few across the National League would have expected what has been a stunning run of form. Putting on another professional and extending on their FA Cup adventure last weekend as they secured a 2-0 win against Eastleigh, Head Coach Luke Garrard has been filled with praise for his side’s eye-catching resurge. Skyrocketing their way to the top of the table and opening Saturday’s fixtures holding a one-point buffer, the Whites will be desperate to lay down another marker on their travels here. Last seen on fifth-tier duties claiming a deserved 1-0 victory against a struggling Southend, Boreham Wood have won six of their last seven matchups across all formats, a run that stems back to October 2nd. In fact, with just a single defeat to their name since the middle of September, Saturday’s guests have also continued to impress with their success at the back. Including keeping three clean sheets on the spin, it should be noted that Garrard’s side have kept a clean sheet in each of their previous six victories. Picking up a 3-2 win the last time they faced off against this weekend’s hosts, Altrincham could face another stern test here. Somewhat in National League limbo after coming crashing back down to earth, the Robins have collected just a single point from any of their last four straight fifth-tier outings.

Tip: Boreham Wood win @ 7/5

15:00 Real Valladolid vs Fuenlabrada

Starting with Saturday’s hosts, after losing their La Liga status last season, there is no doubt that Real Valladolid have their sights set on securing an immediate top-flight return. Managing to prove that their nightmare display against Amorebieta from earlier in the month was just a minor blip, Head Coach Pacheta saw his side lay down a marker last weekend. Claiming a deserved 3-1 win against Mirandes on home soil, Albivioletas are hoping to only widen their buffer in the play-off spots. Enjoying what has been a largely impressive run of form, Valladolid have collected nine points from their last four Segunda contests, a run highlighted by a a 2-0 win against Eibar on October 31st. In fact, it should also be noted that Saturday’s hosts have lost just one of their previous nine second-tier contests, a run that stems back to the middle of September. Landing back-to-back victories at the José Zorrilla, a downbeat Fuenlabrada could face another stern test this weekend. Firmly looking over their shoulder at the drop zone, José Luis Oltra’s men are currently in the midst of a six-match winless run. Likewise, the Blues have managed to muster just a single point from any of their previous four Segunda fixtures. Last seen on their travels getting hit with back-to-back defeats at Las Palmas and Ibiza, we’re backing a home victory here.
