Ladbrokes' football weekend acca - Iraola picks up first Liverpool win

Ladbrokes football accumulator - Gameweek Two

Ladbrokes four-fold football accumulator

• Leg 1: Crystal Palace vs Manchester City - Man City to win

• Leg 2: Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest - Liverpool to win

• Leg 3: Chelsea vs Brighton - Chelsea or draw

• Leg 4: Aston Villa vs Arsenal - Arsenal to win

Crystal Palace vs Manchester City: Manchester City to win

Manchester City to win at Selhurst Park is the opening selection in the Gameweek Two accumulator, with the visitors looking to build momentum after edging past Bournemouth in their first Premier League fixture.

City have won 70% of their matches against Crystal Palace at Selhurst Park, only slightly below their 73% win rate against the Eagles at the Etihad Stadium. That record suggests playing away from home won't majorly weaken their chances.

Palace began their campaign with a 2-0 defeat against Everton. City will therefore see an opportunity to produce a more convincing performance and take three points from their first away game of the season.

Liverpool vs Nottingham Forest: Liverpool to win

Liverpool to win at Anfield is the headline leg of the Ladbrokes football weekend acca as Andoni Iraola targets his first Premier League victory in charge.

The Reds drew 2-2 away to Newcastle in Gameweek One, but generated 1.4 more xG than their opponents. That attacking output provides encouragement as Liverpool prepare to bring Iraola’s attacking approach to Anfield for the first time.

Nottingham Forest opened with a 1-0 loss to Leeds, with their attacking performance described as having been less than convincing. New Forest manager Oliver Glasner also failed to record a Premier League victory at Anfield during his time with Crystal Palace.

Chelsea vs Brighton: Chelsea or draw

Chelsea or draw provides the accumulator’s only double-chance selection as two teams with encouraging opening-weekend performances meet at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea scored three times against Fulham in their first fixture, demonstrating their intent under Xabi Alonso. Brighton made an even more emphatic start by beating Aston Villa 4-0 at home.

Brighton’s opening result makes this a tough assignment for Chelsea, while the two goals the Blues conceded against Fulham offer a reason to avoid relying solely on a home victory.

The double-chance market means this leg lands if Chelsea win or the match finishes level. Chelsea or draw adds that protection as the third selection in the accumulator.

Aston Villa vs Arsenal: Arsenal to win

Arsenal to win at Villa Park completes the four-fold acca, with the visitors carrying strong early-season form into the final fixture of Gameweek Two.

The Gunners won the Community Shield and their opening Premier League match, scoring six goals across those two fixtures without conceding. Their performances have provided an early indication of their quality at both ends of the pitch.

Aston Villa, meanwhile, began their league campaign with a 4-0 defeat against Brighton. Their midfield options will also be affected after Joao Gomes was sent off in that match.

Arsenal appear much better placed to take advantage of Villa’s difficult start. An away win is the final leg of the Ladbrokes weekend accumulator.
