ACCA of the Day is up. 10 legs from the FA Community Shield, Championship, La Liga, Eredivisie, Primeira Liga and Superliga Romaniei, every selection backed by stats and form.
Arsenal vs Manchester City
Double Chance Arsenal or Draw - at 1.44
The 2026 Community Shield moves to the Principality Stadium in Cardiff because Wembley is booked for concerts, so neither side gets a true home advantage. Arsenal are the nominal 8/5 favourites with City at 17/10 and the draw at 9/4, and this fixture has a long history of going the distance before penalties. Covering the draw is the smart way into the shortest priced side at 1.44.
Burnley vs West Ham United
Double Chance West Ham or Draw - at 1.40
Two of the biggest budgets in the second tier meet at Turf Moor with West Ham the 13/10 away favourites and Burnley out at 9/5. The draw at 13/5 is a live outcome in a fixture where both squads are still bedding in after relegation. Away cover at 1.40.
Watford vs Southampton
Double Chance Southampton or Draw - at 1.31
Southampton are 21/20 at Vicarage Road, one of the very few away favourites on the Championship card, with Watford out at 9/4. Saints carry the stronger profile and more ways to win it, and the 13/5 draw is fully covered here. Supporting the away side cleanly at 1.31.
Racing de Santander vs Villarreal
Double Chance Villarreal or Draw - at 1.34
Villarreal are 6/5 away at El Sardinero against newly promoted Racing, who are priced 2/1 on the day. The Yellow Submarine finished the previous campaign in the European places and the squad gap over a promoted side is significant, but a hostile first home game in the top flight justifies covering the 12/5 draw. Away cover at 1.34.
Celta de Vigo vs Osasuna
Double Chance Celta or Draw - at 1.25
Celta open at Balaídos as evens favourites with Osasuna out at 11/4 and the draw at 23/10. Osasuna are traditionally one of the lowest scoring travelling sides in LaLiga, so a home win or a stalemate covers close to 80 percent of the implied book. Clean short leg at 1.25.
Espanyol vs Levante
Double Chance Espanyol or Draw - at 1.26
Espanyol are 21/20 at the RCDE Stadium with Levante, back in the top flight, out at 13/5. Promoted sides historically struggle on the road in the opening weeks and the 9/4 draw is folded in for safety. Cover leg at 1.26.
Ajax vs sc Heerenveen
Ajax to Win - at 1.36
Ajax are 4/11 at the Johan Cruijff Arena, an implied probability around 73 percent, with Heerenveen out at 17/4. Ajax score a lot at home and Heerenveen have been leaking goals on their travels. Solid home angle at 1.36.
Feyenoord vs Go Ahead Eagles
Feyenoord to Win - at 1.33
Feyenoord are 1/3 at De Kuip against a Go Ahead side priced 9/2, one of the widest gaps on the Eredivisie round. The Rotterdam crowd is a genuine factor and Feyenoord's home scoring rate has been among the best in the division. Anchoring the slip cleanly at 1.33.
Braga vs Gil Vicente
Sporting Braga to Win - at 1.62
Braga are 8/13 at the Estádio Municipal with Gil Vicente out at 18/5 in the late Sunday kick off. Braga have far more European pedigree and squad depth than a mid table Gil Vicente side that has struggled in Braga over the years. Biggest price on the ticket at 1.62.
Oțelul Galați vs Universitatea Craiova
Double Chance Universitatea Craiova or Draw - at 1.25
Craiova sit 3rd in the Superliga table while Oțelul are 6th, and the bookmakers quote the away win at 1.95 with the draw at 3.50. Craiova arrive off a surprise 0-1 home loss to FC Argeș and a Europa League qualifier against KuPS, so the fatigue angle is real, which is exactly why the draw is covered rather than backing the straight win. Cover leg at 1.25.
Combined Odds: 20.42
Ten European legs on Sunday, six double chance covers and four straight wins. Celta at 1.25 and the Craiova cover at 1.25 anchor the ticket at the short end, Feyenoord at 1.33 adds reliable value on the best home scoring record in the Eredivisie round, and Braga at 1.62 carries the biggest price. The Community Shield cover at 1.44 is the headline leg, played in Cardiff rather than Wembley. All ten matches kick off Sunday 16 August.
