Saturday's 4/1 Scottish Football Accumulator Tips

Fixtures for: Saturday 4th October

Partick Thistle v Arbroath

Scottish Championship

15:00

Partick Thistle to Win @ 1.57

Partick Thistle have established themselves as a credible title contender to St Johnstone in the Championship and look a good price to get a victory over Arbroath on Saturday.

The Jags beat Queen’s Park 1-0 on Tuesday night to record their sixth win in their last seven games. The exception was a League Cup clash against Celtic – a game they were always likely to be up against it.

Arbroath, meanwhile, have made a good start to the season and lie 4th in the league. However, when it comes to facing the very best the Championship has to offer, they have struggled. The Red Lichties were thumped 3-0 by Raith Rovers last weekend, which marked a third game in succession without a win.

Back in August, they were similarly comfortably beaten away to St Johnstone. Indeed, Arbroath have lost three of the four matches they have played against clubs in the top six, conceding 12 times in these clashes.

Partick have won each of their league games since the middle of August, and I’m backing that run to continue at Firhill against a team that’s consistently toiled against opponents of their level.

Airdrieonians v Morton

Scottish Championship

15:00

Morton Double Chance @ 1.35

I was slightly surprised to see Morton priced up as the outsiders in their clash with Airdrie in the Scottish Championship on Saturday. While the Ton are still searching for their first league win of the season, they have lost just one of their opening eight league matches of the campaign, with seven of those contests ending all square.

It’s also worth noting that Dougie Imrie’s side are the only team that have managed to take points off league leaders St Johnstone to date, battling their way to a 1-1 draw in Perth. On top of that, Morton also picked up a point on their travels away at second in the table Partick Thistle.

With all that in mind, Morton look more than capable of avoiding defeat against an Airdrie side that are currently propping up the Scottish Championship table. The Diamonds have lost four of their five matches under new boss Danny Lennon’s watch, with their only point coming against Raith Rovers across that five-game sequence.

Clyde v East Kilbride

Scottish League Two

15:00

Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.65

I’m going back to an old favourite bet this season as Clyde host East Kilbride, with at least three goals looking a good price again in Hamilton.

The home side look overpriced going into this match after five successive wins, during which they have found their shooting boots. Clyde have scored a notable 12 times in their last three league games.

East Kilbride, meanwhile, have hit a more difficult spell of form. Mick Kennedy’s side are five without a win and were left especially stunned last weekend as they lost 3-1 away to struggling Annan.

Goals remain a constant in East Kilbride’s matches, though. Only two of their 16 fixtures in all competitions have failed to produce at least three goals, while 13 of these games have seen at least four strikes.

The odds on this trend continuing in Hamilton are simply too good to ignore, particularly with the hosts being involved in a string of high-scoring clashes lately.

Hearts v Hibernian

Scottish Premiership

17:45

Over 2.5 Goals @ 1.73

Saturday’s Edinburgh derby promises to be the highlight of the Scottish football weekend, and it should be a cracker that produces at least three goals.

Each of the last couple of fixtures between these clubs finished 2-1 to Hibs, and that should fuel Hearts’ desire to get the win. Indeed, the Jambos have won only one of the last seven between these sides. Remarkably, six of these games have seen both teams score – something that is priced at 1.65 here.

Hearts have scored at least two goals in ten of their last 11 fixtures this season, and with Hibs having conceded two or more in three of their six Premiership games, the prospect of the hosts rippling the net twice looks good, particularly at a price of 1.9.

Neither of these teams is a stranger to high-scoring games this season. Of Hibs’ six league games, four have produced at least three goals, while Over 2.5 goals has been a winner in the same number of Hearts Premiership matches.

While Hibs’ attacking qualities plus their dominance of this fixture in recent years mean that there should be some doubt over the outcome of the game, I’m struggling to see this game being a low-scoring affair.

An SPFL accumulator is a type of football bet that combines multiple selections from matches within the Scottish Professional Football League (SPFL) into a single list of betting selections. The SPFL includes four divisions: the Premiership, Championship, League One, and League Two. 


An accumulator, or ‘acca’, typically includes four or more individual bets, such as match outcomes (win, draw, or loss), both teams to score, over/under goals, or player prop selections from different games.


For the accumulator to pay out, all selections must be correct. If even one result is wrong, the entire bet loses. However, because the risk is higher, accumulators offer significantly larger potential returns compared to placing single bets. The odds for each leg multiply together, resulting in a cumulative total that can be quite lucrative.


In summary, an SPFL accumulator is a betting strategy that covers multiple games in Scotland’s football league system, appealing to those with in-depth knowledge of the leagues.

We have three contributors to our weekly Scottish content, with each having a vast amount of experience across different tiers of Scottish football.


Andy Robson


With over 10 years of experience covering countless leagues in terms of betting, Andy Robson has amassed a following that has made him the most popular betting tipster in the UK. 


With over 1 million followers across several social media platforms, he has built a reputation for providing free, quality betting content for the best part of a decade.


Keep an eye out for his weekly Scottish Double, which includes high-quality research as well as identifying mispricing by bookmakers.


Robin Bairner


With 17 years of experience in covering football professionally, Robin specialises in both Scottish and French football and has been a contributor to Andy’s Bet Club since 2022.


Covering two World Cups and a European Championship as an accredited journalist, Robin has been involved in offering quality betting advice as far back as 2007.


Grant Heaney


Falkirk fan Grant has been a contributor to some of the biggest betting websites and newspapers over the past five years.


He has been sharing his insight, knowledge, and tips across various platforms for over five years. Across that five-year period, Grant has covered games from all over the globe.

For it to be considered an acca, a betslip must contain at least four selections from different games. Three would be considered a treble, while two would only be considered a double.


For beginners, it’s smart to start small. You don’t need a 10-fold acca to have fun or make a profit. Stick to solid picks, keep an eye on the odds, and don’t chase long shots just for the big win. Accas are about balance, and not just big payouts.

Our community voted bet365 as the best bookmaker for accumulators via our Best Bookmaker Awards survey.


Over 47% of the 1,150 votes were in favour of bet365, with particular interest in the ‘Up To 100% Acca Boost’ and the ‘2 Goals Up Payout.’


Paddy Power also proved popular with over 23% of the vote, with their ‘Free Power Up Tokens’ and ‘2 UP Payout’ proving equally as popular among our community.

The most popular markets for SPFL accas tend to be:


- Match Result

- Both Teams to Score

- Over/Under Goals

- Double Chance

- Draw No Bet

- Team To Score

- Anytime Goalscorer

Paddy Power and bet365’s ‘2 UP’ promotions add extra insurance to any potential SPFL acca. This means that if you’re team goes 2-0 up in any game, it will be counted as a win regardless of the full-time result.


Bet365’s Acca Boost also boasts an attractive option for punters, giving an extra 2.5% winnings boost depending on how many legs are in your accumulator. You can get up to 100% winnings boost depending on the number of legs in your accumulator, meaning you can potentially double your winnings depending on the amount of selections.

There’s never a bad time necessarily, to cash out an accumulator. If you believe the cashout is offering attractive returns, then by all means, take it. It’s always sensible to leave yourself in profit, regardless of how much is on offer.


Gambling is always about being responsible and doing it sensibly.

You can, most bookmakers in the UK are aware of the popularity of SPFL games, and allow multiple markets to be backed in the same game.


It should be noted, however, that if you were to take just four selections from the same game, that would be labelled as a bet builder and not an accumulator. Accumulators tend to be selections across a number of different games.

The likelihood of an acca winning really depends on the odds. If, for example, an acca is at odds of 4.0, this means that it is likely to land in one out of every three attempts.


We always aim to end each week in profit across all our accumulators on site.

We have weekly content for each batch of SPFL fixtures, and the best way to get notified is by signing up for Andy’s Bet Club Weekly Newsletter. 


This is sent out at least once a week by email, detailing the best offers and SPFL betting tips on offer for free on the site each week.

Typically, no, you need each selection to land in order to take home any potential winnings. Certain bookmakers will offer this as a promotion, however, and it often is based around returning your stake in cash if your acca loses.

You are free to use any bookmaker you like to back our SPFL acca. The likes of bet365 and Paddy Power have proven to be the most popular amongst our community, but if you are more familiar with your own bookmaker interface, feel free to use that.
