Football Accumulator Tips: 46/1 five-fold from Tuesday’s action

Tuesday brings with it a wide range of footballing action varying from the EFL to Serie A. This provides an excellent opportunity for a midweek accumulator if you ask me. I've put together a five-fold from this evening's selection, opting for the straightforward match result market.

Below you will find my football accumulator tips, which pays out at an enticing 43/1.

Lincoln to beat Northampton (H) @ 7/10

Lincoln City got back to winning ways in League 1 at the weekend as they defeated Stockport County 2-1 on home soil, responding from their 3-1 defeat at the hands of Birmingham City the week prior.

The Imps went behind inside the first 10 minutes but they reacted well to equalise before the break and snatch the three points in the second half. Michael Skubala's side find themselves just one point outside the play-off places right now, and they will want to move back into the top six in their next home game, which comes against Northampton Town on Tuesday.

The Cobblers have seen an upturn in their form in recent weeks, going unbeaten in their last three league outings. They will be fancying their chances in Lincolnshire, and I must admit I was tempted to cover the draw here. However, I labelled Lincoln as one of the teams I could see finishing in the top six this season, so a win here could go a long way for them come May.

They have lost two of their home league matches this term but they have also won three, including their latest at the weekend. That momentum should help them record another three points against a tough opponent, who will make it a difficult encounter.

Bolton to beat Stevenage (A) @ 6/5

Bolton Wanderers left it late to snatch a valuable three points from promotion rivals Peterborough United at the weekend. Ian Evatt's side dominated the match but it took a scramble following a penalty at the death for them to get the result.

It was an improvement on their abject performance in their defeat to Birmingham last week but they are going to have to be more ruthless in front of goal because they had 25 efforts at the weekend but only the one goal to show for it.

They will look to be more clinical when they travel to Stevenage on Tuesday, who have lost their last two matches. The Trotters are two points outside the play-offs, which is impressive considering their slow start, and a win here could propel them back into familiar territory.

Bolton have got the players to put Stevenage to the sword, but it feels like they are still a couple of games away from completely clicking. So while this may not be a hammering, I'm still backing them to come away with the three points.

Draw - Stockport County vs Reading @ 5/2

After going four games without a win for the second time this season, Stockport County are starting to realise the step up from League 2 to League 1. The Hatters started the campaign brilliantly with three wins, but they have won just once since then.

Dave Challinor's men are sandwiched in the middle of the table, and while they were beaten against Lincoln last time out, it was a game in which they led and created enough opportunities to win it themselves.

Stockport have been stockpiling the draws in recent weeks, with six of their last nine league fixtures being stalemates. They welcome an in-form Reading side to Edgeley Park on Tuesday, with the Royals having won three in a row.

I was tempted to cover Reading here, but I think the hosts' trend of picking up draws could strike again on Tuesday night. The Hatters are a good side that are organised, and have the players in attack who can pounce. Reading will no doubt provide them with another tough test, but at home I fancy them to get a result.

This is because they have lost just one of their five home games this season.

Birmingham to beat Fulham Under-21s (H) @ 2/7

Moving on to the EFL Trophy, League 1 leaders Birmingham have the chance to progress out of their group by avoiding defeat at home against Fulham's youth side. The Blues turned up the heat in their last group match, in which they thumped Shrewsbury Town 4-0, a huge improvement on their drab draw with Walsall back in September.

Chris Davies' side head into this game off the back of another draw, this time coming against Mansfield Town in the league. Chris Davies' side were dominant in the first half but made to pay for not putting the game to bed as the Stags came out on top in the second 45 and salvaged a deserved point.

The Blues boss is expected to make wholesale changes to his team here, to give a rest to some of his key players. With the options he has at his disposal, he still has a lot of quality to choose from, who should have no issues against this Fulham side.

The young Cottagers may have beaten Shrewsbury, but they are one of the poorest sides in League 1. They were bested by League 2 high-flyers Walsall despite having more of the ball. With Birmingham's style of play including a lot of ball retention, I think Fulham will be scrambling, which should give the Blues openings to score a couple at St Andrew's.

Napoli to beat AC Milan (A) @ 9/5

Antonio Conte's Napoli sit top of the table in Serie A after their fourth win on the bounce against Lecce at the weekend. The Naples club have started this campaign in the way many were expecting them to after their title win two seasons ago.

They experienced a very disappointing campaign last year, but this one looks to be an exciting one. Napoli are four points clear at the summit, and I think this could be extended on Tuesday. They head to San Siro to face AC Milan, who are sat eighth presently. I Rossoneri started the campaign slowly, but they have picked up recently with their first four wins of the campaign coming in their last five appearances.

Napoli will provide them with their toughest test to date, but it is one I am not expecting them to pass. Conte's men are in great shape and full of confidence, so I believe they are worth backing to take the victory here.
