Football Betting Strategy: Accumulators

Football betting fans often feel that accumulators are the best way to get high returns, but it’s important to remember that they come with an increased risk. There are ways to approach football accumulators to make them work for you, though, การนำทางหน้าเว็บ and a flexible accumulator strategy is perhaps the most interesting and useful way to make this tempting betting system pay.

Stick to What You Know
When building an accumulator, the starting point is to stick to what you know. It’s best to pick a market that you're the most comfortable with, which will more often than not be the ever-popular outright winner market. Some people prefer to bet on low-risk favourites, piling them up in order to boost their multiples, whilst others fancy throwing in a few long shots to build some serious odds. For beginners, the only hard and fast rule is to avoid the temptation to bet on complete outsiders – the odds may be appealing, but the chances of success are far lower.

Avoid Low and High-Risk Bets
Playing the numbers with either low-risk bets (expecting regular, low wins) or high-risk bets (expecting occasional, big wins) is all well and good when you bet on a single match or market, but accumulators require more planning and research than normal. Low-risk bets mean lower odds and returns, and high-risk bets mean a greater chance of one leg of your acca letting you down. A measured approach is needed to get the balance just right. Research will play a role and a good rule of thumb is that if you haven't got the stats to back up your selections, don't add the bet to your accumulator - you're only increasing your exposure to unexpected events.

Draw No Bet Market
In trickier weeks where perhaps you aren't sure of enough results to build a decent accumulator, the best advice is to throw the 'draw no bet' market into the mix, or even build your accumulator entirely around this market. Using the 'draw no bet' market for เมนูอาหารจานเดียว your football accumulator means that when the team you backed draws the match, the bet is void, and the stake moves over to the remaining matches as a smaller accumulator – a far better alternative to losing the lot.

Both Teams to Score Market
If better odds appeal to you more than odds which allow you to hedge your bets, it’s best to try out a different market to the outright winner in the weeks that are more difficult to predict. The 'both teams to score' market is always a popular choice, especially when a number of the league’s top scoring teams face off against each other during the same weekend. You can boost your odds even further by building your betting slip around the 'first team to score', or even the 'first player to score'.
