Smart Acca Picks: Scottish League Cup and UCL Qualifiers Look Good Value

Check out our Smart Acca picks for Tuesday's action that sees the Scottish League Cup and Champions League qualifiers take centre stage in a match result-BTTS acca.

Scottish League One takes on the Scottish Premiership in matchday one of the League Cup to kick off the latest Scottish season.

Cove, however, come into this game off the back of a dismal campaign in the Scottish Championship that saw them relegated out of the second tier. The club lost 19 games that season but still outscored everyone in the bottom four.

Livingston finished second in their relegation phase to Motherwell and ended up with 13 wins and 60 goals conceded from 38 outings in the Scottish Premiership. Given how they are now two leagues above Cove, Livingston are expected to win this one with both teams scoring.

Arbroath ended their poor season in the Scottish Championship with just 29 goals scored and six games won. Although this kept them off the bottom of the table by three points, they won the fewest games and scored the fewest goals.

Forfar Athletic finished the League Two campaign with 13 games won and 37 goals scored, meaning they won 50% of their games last season with both teams scoring and them winning. The club also had the third-best defensive record in the fourth tier.

Falkirk ended their League One campaign with 19 victories from the 36 games as they also lost seven games. The club bagged the second-most goals with 70 going in, and with 39 goals let in, only Dunfermline conceded more.

As for Dundee United, they were relegated from the Premiership after a dreadful campaign saw them concede the most goals (70), win the fewest games (8) and also lost the most matches (23). They did, however, score 40 times, which was only bettered by Motherwell and St. Johnstone in the relegation phase.

In total, 57% of games involving Falkirk have seen both teams score and them win since last August.

As the Scottish League Cup kicks off the first competitive domestic games in some of the UK's top leagues this Tuesday, all other attention turns to the European qualifiers once more.

Astana are heading to Dinamo Zagreb in this one, as the Croatian champions aim to swiftly move on from their terrible loss to Hajduk Split on matchday one in the 1. HNL.

Zagreb eased to another league title last year with a 10-point gap on the second-placed Split, while they also defeated them in the Croatian Super Cup final. What's more, Astana met with Dinamo Tbilisi in the first qualifying round, edging past them 3-2 after letting in a goal in each tie.
