Will The Home Teams Deliver or Face an Away invasion?: Accumulator Tip for January 20

With European football competitions around the corner, league action across Europe will grace our screens before the prestigious events take place. We have picked the three best games happening on this day involving well-known leagues to make an accumulator tip to help you score big!

Como vs. Udinese

Como has been struggling this season in Serie A and find themselves involved in relegation dogfight. The home side head into this clash following a 2-1 league defeat against AC Milan, although it seemed they were headed towards an upset after gaining the lead by the hour mark through Assane Diao's effort.

The home team have won just two of their last 14 matched while recording seven losses and five draws. However, they've shown some improvements at home with two wins in their last four outings (D1, L1).

Udinese has established itself as a difficult team to overcome in the past weeks. They are unbeaten in four matches but have recorded three consecutive draws leading up to this match.

In their most recent match against Atalanta, they did well to salvage a point in a goalless draw. They currently occupy tenth place in the Serie A standings and are one point behind AS Roma in ninth place.

Bookmakers have Como as favorites in this upcoming encounter, but I'm not entirely convinced about that choice one bit. This is because Udinese has lost one of their last five away matches, not to mention they've won their last two away matches against Como with six goals being scored. That said, I'm backing the away side in the double chance market as I believe they are worth three points here.

Chelsea vs. Wolverhampton Wanderers

Chelsea has fallen below the threshold for a team that was on a high, winning eight straight matches across all competitions with an impressive 26 goals scored. 

Coming into this match, Enzo Maresca's men have won just one of their last six matches in all competitions, with three draws and two losses recorded in the process. Their last league match against Bournemouth saw them squander a one-goal lead to play out a 2-2 draw at home.

Wolves, on the other hand, have been trying to meet expectations despite results not going their way. Three wins in the last six outings across all competitions is a significant improvement for a side that was on a four-match losing streak. 

In their most recent match, the visitors were made to rue their missed chances against Newcastle United as they succumbed to a convincing 3-0 league defeat. The bad news is that they find themselves tied on points with Ipswich Town in the relegation zone.

Chelsea have established themselves as a force to be reckoned with in front of their home crowd. They have lost one of their last 15 matches with eight of those matches being won by a two goal margin. I'm expecting a similar trend here as I believe they'll be a difficult opponent to overcome against a side that has struggled for consistency in the league. As such, I'm going with Chelsea to win in the asian handicap -1.5.

• Bet Type: W1 (-1.5)

Villarreal vs. Mallorca

Villarreal is slowly drifting away from the top four sides in La Liga standings, and failure to secure maximum points here could lead to them dropping down to seventh, that's if Real Sociedad and their opponents in this clash come out on top.

It has been a tough period for the Yellow Submarine's, who have only won one of their last eight matches, recording four losses and three draws in the process. Despite registering two times the shots than Real Sociedad in their recent La Liga match, they weren't able to secure a favorable outcome as they lost 1-0 on the road.

Mallorca have been much better than their opponents in this impending encounter despite league standings showing otherwise. The home team has lost two consecutive matches against Pontevedra and Real Madrid by a 3-0 scoreline in the Copa del Rey and Super Cup, respectively. 

However, they enter this match boasting a two-match winning streak in La Liga with their most recent match ending in a 1-0 away win against Getafe. It's also worth mentioning that they've won four of their last six outings.

Meetings between Villarreal and Mallorca have been entertaining, with 12 goals scored in their last four encounters. This is why I'm leaning towards a high-scoring affair here where neither side will focus much on a defensive front.
