A belting, Boxing Day acca

Boxing Day would not be Boxing Day without a football accumulator. A full Premier League programme, minus the Arsenal-West Ham game due to a tube strike, offers options aplenty.

The first to make it on to the acca coupon are Chelsea. Rafael Benitez’s side are in sizzling form, have momentum on their side and they look excellent value at 8/13 to see off Norwich.

Tottenham are on their travels at Aston Villa and Andre Villas-Boas’ men can be backed at even money to claim the three points. That looks decent value, given they are a very solid outfit and Villa may still be shaking off the effects of an 8-0 mauling at Chelsea.

Fulham are not in the best of form, but they still look excellent value to get the better of a limited Southampton side at Craven Cottage. Martin Jol’s men can be backed at 17/20.

And signing off the coupon are Swansea who can be backed at 11/8 to pile more misery on Brian McDermott’s Reading. Those four results would return £14.20 to a £1 stake.
