The first South Coast derby since 2019, and the first league meeting between the pair since 2012, arrives on Sunday at 12pm. I've sorted a South Coast Derby Cheat Sheet too.
The usual sensible kick-off time for a very heated derby is an indication as to what local police are wanting to prevent, but there is still likely to be a degree of violence that the police can’t control, and that is on the pitch.
The 2019 EFL Cup tie saw just three yellows, but it was an early-round game that mattered less and ended 4-0 to Southampton, so hardly competitive.
But their last Championship meeting in 2012 was a war: eight yellows, a 2-2 draw, and late drama with goals in the 89th and 90th minutes sparking more cards and two even came in the opening 10 minutes.
Expect a big midfield battle in 2025, with fouls front and centre.

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.

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.
