Saturday’s 70/1 Experts Acca

Middlesbrough vs Brentford – Brentford to win at 11/8
Middlesbrough continue to struggle, with Neil Warnock’s side failing to score in their last three league games. They head into this one on the back of three successive home losses to nil, so it’s not a great time to face high-flying Brentford.
The Bees are a bit of a bogey side for Boro, as last month’s FA Cup loss was Middlesbrough’s fourth defeat in five clashes with Brentford. The visitors also come here with six wins from their last seven league matches and they’ve scored 10 goals across their last two games.
Brentford head into this clash generously priced and they look worth backing to extend a brilliant run of form.

Freiburg vs Borussia Dortmund – Freiburg double chance at 5/4
Edin Terzic’s promotion to manager at Borussia Dortmund hasn’t quite had the transformative effect the fans were hoping for. Since his appointment in mid-December BVB have won just four of their eight league games and their midweek extra-time victory in the DFB Pokal was a draining affair.
Jadon Sancho picked up a knock in that game and is a doubt here, joining a potentially lengthy injury list that includes Axel Witseld, Dan-Axel Zagadou, Roman Burki, Emre Can, Thorgan Hazard and Thomas Meunier.
Freiburg weren’t involved in any midweek cup action and have lost only two of their last 11 Bundesliga games. This record improves at the Schwarzwald Stadion, where they are unbeaten in six and have lost just twice all season.

Aston Villa vs Arsenal – Over 2.5 goals at 4/6
A mix of sparkling attacking football and haphazard defending have combined to make Villa an entertaining watch in recent weeks, and more excitement is expected when Arsenal travel to the Midlands.
The Gunners look weak at the back without suspended first choice keeper Bernd Leno and centre-half David Luiz, though they have shown big improvement in forward areas and can trade blows with Villa.

Burton vs Hull – Hull to win at 8/11
League One’s bottom club Burton host title contenders Hull and the 32-point gulf between the teams should be even wider after Saturday’s encounter.
Hull thumped promotion rivals Portsmouth 4-0 in their last away fixture and they are averaging two goals per game on the road this season.
Burton boss Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink brought in nine new players in January but his side have lost six of their last seven, conceding 20 goals, and they may struggle to tame the Tigers.

Sevilla vs Getafe – Sevilla to win at 8/11
Sevilla are on a five-match winning sequence and they can make it six of the best when welcoming Getafe on Saturday.
It’s four straight clean sheets too for Sevilla, whose tight defence is the reason behind their top-four position in La Liga. Julen Lopetegui’s side have conceded only 16 goals and are currently looking like the best of the rest behind the big three in Spain.
Twelve-placed Getafe have played four matches away to teams currently above them in the table and have lost the lot by an aggregate 12-1.

Crawley vs Harrogate – Harrogate to win at 19/10
Harrogate failed to build on a strong start to their debut League Two campaign but they seem to be putting an uncertain period behind them and can defeat playoff-chasing Crawley in West Sussex.
Sulphurites’ boss Simon Weaver has freshened up his squad with a few January acquisitions and his team were worthy 2-1 winners at home to Newport last Saturday.
The Yorkshire side are hoping to chalk up back-to-back wins for the first time since October and can prevail against the Red Devils, who have gone three games without a victory.
