£5 Tuesday acca pays £264

Best from the lower leagues

League football goes on the backburner this midweek, as the international scene takes centre stage. There’s a round of friendlies, headlined by Germany vs England, before the World Cup qualifiers return at the weekend.

There are some domestic matches for Coral punters to get involved in on Tuesday and Wednesday however, with League One, League Two and the lower tiers of the Scottish game giving accumulator backers an option. We have picked out our best five, which you can follow below. Every £5 down returns £264.60 – if our luck is in – with prices and returns mentioned correct at the time of writing.

Port Vale beat Coventry

League One and it’s not a difficult choice to oppose Coventry this season. Barring a painfully brief upturn in form during the winter, the Sky Blues have been poor throughout, and go into this latest clash with a record of seven defeats, two draws and a win from their last 10. That includes three losses on the bounce. Vale are no world beaters, stuck in the relegation zone themselves, but have picked up 15 points more than their hosts, despite playing fewer matches. 23/10 Port Vale starts us off.

Bolton beat Oxford

At the other end of the League One table and Bolton finally appear to have found their feet, pushing for the automatic promotion that was expected of them pre-season. Phil Parkinson’s boys are unbeaten in five, winning each of their last three, and victory on Tuesday would move them to within six points of Sheffield United in pole. Opponents Oxford enjoy home advantage, but struggle to nail down any kind of consistency, with their last five reading lose-lose-win-lose-win. Bolton make sense at a tempting 9/5.
