Tuesday's 3/1 Champions League Player Fouls Predictions

Fixtures for: Tuesday 21st October

Arsenal v Atletico Madrid

Champions League

20:00

Guiliano Simeone Over 0.5 Fouls Committed @ 1.44

Guiliano Simeone racked up three fouls on matchday one of the Champions League against Liverpool, and this match at the Emirates could be quite similar for him. Atletico are likely to have less possession than the hosts, and have plenty of defensive work to get through.

Simeone is an incredibly emotional player, who plays with his heart on his sleeve. He is averaging 1.09 fouls per 90 this season, but has seen an uptick in fouls in more competitive games.

Myles Lewis-Skelly started Arsenal’s last Champions League outing against Olympiacos, during which he was fouled six times. The 19-year-old has been used interchangeably with Riccardo Calafiori so far this season, and could be set for a re-call to the starting XI given that the Italian played the full 90 against Fulham at the weekend. If Lewis-Skelly does start, it is a perfect matchup to target Simeone fouls.

Bayer Leverkusen v PSG

Champions League

20:00

Christian Kofane Over 1.5 Fouls Committed @ 1.36

With Patrick Schick sidelined, Christian Kofane has stepped up and made the most of his opportunity to lead the line, scoring in three straight games for Leverkusen. Schick continues to be hindered by a thigh injury, so Kofane is set to start midweek against the Parisians.

Kofane has racked up a total of nine fouls and two bookings in his four starts, including three fouls against Mainz at the weekend. The 19-year-old is a real physical presence, but can be a bit clumsy at times.

Kofane had a notable average of 2.09 fouls per 90 last season for Albacete, playing in the Spanish second division. With PSG expected to dominate possession on Tuesday night, Kofane could be left quite isolated, he is a player always willing to press so should adapt well to the role.

Newcastle v Benfica

Champions League

20:00

Dan Burn Over 0.5 Fouls Committed @ 1.44

As Tino Livramento recovers from a knee injury, Dan Burn has been deployed in a full back role in the last few games. Although he has played in that position before, the 6ft 5in defender does seem to look a bit more uncomfortable out wide, and he struggled against Brighton last time out. Burn committed two fouls and was booked against the Seagulls, meaning he has committed a total of six infringements across his last four matches, picking up two bookings in that time.

The 33-year-old will be up against Dodi Lukebakio on the flank, which is an enticing matchup. Lukebakio is a player who likes to dribble with the ball, and look to take on his opposing defender. The Belgian international has drawn seven fouls in his last two games alone, and is averaging 2.76 fouls drawn per 90 after five games as a Benfica player.

Newcastle v Benfica

Champions League

20:00

Fredrik Aursnes Over 0.5 Fouls Committed @ 1.40

Prior to their defeat at Stamford Bridge, Benfica suffered an unlikely loss against Qarabag on home turf in the Champions League. After leading by two goals within 20 minutes, the Portuguese side eventually lost 3-2, meaning they are still yet to register a point in Europe this term. Last time out against Chelsea, all three of the Benfica midfielders picked up a booking, as they struggled to cope with the Blues’ intensity.

Fredrik Aursnes had a particularly tough night, as he racked up a total of five fouls, which was the most of any Benfica player. Considering he will be up against the likes of Sandro Tonali, Joelinton and Bruno Guimaraes in the Newcastle midfield, it could be another tough night for the Norway international. That Newcastle midfield three are averaging a combined 5.46 fouls drawn per 90 in all competitions this season, while Guimaraes was the most fouled player in the Premier League last season.

Fouls Acca FAQs

What is a Fouls accumulator?

An accumulator (acca) is a single bet that links together multiple Fouls selections. All selections must win for the bet to payout, whether it be a player to foul or a player to be fouled.

An accumulator, often called an ‘acca’, combines four or more separate bets into one wager. These bets can include match results (win, draw, or loss), both teams to score, over/under goals, or specific player props from different matches.

The Fouls market is often equipped with a bookmaker's substitute feature, meaning certain bookmakers will allow your bet to stay alive even if your selected player is subbed off.

To win an accumulator, every selection must be correct; if even one bet fails, the entire wager is lost. Because of this higher risk, accumulators offer much larger potential payouts than single bets. The odds of each selection are multiplied together, creating a combined total that can lead to substantial returns.

Who selects Fouls accumulator tips?

Our Fouls accumulator tips are put together by our resident player props expert, Oli Nixon.

How many legs should I include in my acca?

Like other accas, Fouls accumulators are no different. A betslip must include a minimum of four selections from different matches. Three selections make up a treble, while two are known as a double.

For those new to accas, it’s wise to start modestly. You don’t need a 10-leg accumulator to enjoy betting or see returns. Focus on strong, well-researched picks, be mindful of the odds, and avoid chasing unlikely outcomes just for a potential jackpot. Successful accumulators are built on balance, not just big wins.

What is the best bookmaker for a Fouls accumulator?

As previously mentioned, many of the top-tier bookmakers offer a substitute feature. Paddy Power offer ‘Super Sub’, bet365 offer ‘Sub On’, and Betfair offer ‘Sub On Play On’.

This means that even if a player is substituted, the bet is still alive with the player subbed on. This can apply to not just 1+ fouls markets, but 2+, and 3+ as well.

What are the best bookmaker promotions for Fouls accumulators?

As noted earlier, several leading bookmakers provide a substitute feature to keep your bet in play. For example, Paddy Power offers ‘Super Sub’, bet365 has ‘Sub On’, and Betfair features ‘Sub On Play On’.

With these tools, your bet remains valid even if your selected player is substituted; your stake simply transfers to the incoming sub. This applies not just to 1+ fouls markets, but also extends to 2+ and 3+ fouls, giving you broader coverage and a better shot at a return.

When should I cash out an accumulator?

There’s no definitive right or wrong moment to cash out an accumulator. If the offer on the table looks appealing and you're happy with the return, it can be a smart move to take it. Locking in a profit is often the wisest choice.

At the end of the day, betting should always be approached with responsibility and a clear head. Sensible decisions are key to enjoying it safely.

Can I build Fouls accas using same-game markets?

Fouls accumulators are often built using same-game markets. Most bookmakers offer a wide variety of players in both the foul and to be fouled markets to add to your Fouls acca. Users can also mix up the selections across a number of games. These are usually fun to track during Champions League gameweeks when there are sometimes 20+ games all kicking off at the same time.

How often do your accas win?

The chances of an accumulator winning largely depend on the combined odds. For instance, if an acca is priced at 10.0, it implies a win roughly once in every ten tries.

Our goal is always to finish each week in profit across all the accumulators we feature on the site.

Can I get notified when the next acca goes live?

We publish weekly content focused on the latest Fouls markets and accumulators, and the best way to stay updated is by subscribing to Andy’s Bet Club Weekly Newsletter.

Delivered by email at least once a week, it highlights the best betting offers and free fouls-related tips available on the site.

What happens if one leg loses – is there acca insurance?

In most cases, all your selections need to win for the accumulator to pay out. However, some bookmakers occasionally run promotions that offer a safety net, often in the form of a cash refund if your acca narrowly misses.

Do I need a specific bookmaker to use your acca?

You can use any bookmaker, but the likes of Paddy Power, bet365, and Betfair offer substitute features to keep your bet alive.

For instance, Paddy Power’s ‘Super Sub’, bet365’s ‘Sub On’, and Betfair’s ‘Sub On Play On’ are all features designed to keep your bet alive, even if your chosen player is subbed off. In these cases, the bet shifts to the player coming on.

This doesn’t just apply to 1+ foul markets, it also covers 2+ and 3+ fouls, offering wider protection and increasing your chances of a successful outcome.
