Tuesday Evening Acca

We have a Ligue 2 double-header to start things off with.

First up, I’m backing leaders Metz to beat mid-table Grenoble.

Metz look nailed-on for promotion, and just one league defeat since November highlights the task that lies before Tuesday’s visitors.

There’s little left to play for as far as Grenoble are concerned, and three defeats from their last four league matches sees them head into this clash in patchy form.

This next one is an unbelievable price: Orleans to overcome Nancy away from home.

Orleans are 18 points and 10 places above their relegation-threatened hosts, and I simply cannot believe they are as big as 21/10.

Not only have Orleans won four of their last five away games—helping them to the fourth-best away record in the league—but Nancy have lost 10 of their 16 at home, which is why they have the second-lowest home record.

The table, and the formbook, suggests this’ll be an away win.

I really do like this Watford side. The Hornets are yet to lose to a non-top six opponent in 2019, and I’m backing them to beat Southampton on Tuesday, priced at a tempting 13/10.

Javi Gracia’s men were denied a fourth straight home win against Arsenal courtesy of a Ben Foster howler and an idiotic Troy Deeney sending-off—they still should’ve earned at least a point, despite this—and I think they’ll have too much for a Saints outfit who were soundly beaten at St. James’ Park on Saturday.

Doncaster Rovers have held off challengers for the last League One play-off spot admirably in recent weeks, and victory over Accrington Stanley on Tuesday would be a giant step towards securing this goal.

The hosts haven’t lost at home in 13 matches (winning nine), and I’m very confident they’ll prevail against relegation-battling Stanley.

John Coleman’s side have lost eight of their last 11, and don’t look much like getting anything from The Keepmoat.
