Today's best football bets
Bets to be placed by 6.30pm
Morecambe to beat Scunthorpe
Blackpool to beat Accrington Stanley
Bayern Munich to beat PSG
Chelsea to beat Porto
Promotion-chasing Morecambe look a great bet at home to Scunthorpe in League Two on Tuesday while Blackpool, who are on a 14-game unbeaten run, should justify favouritism against Accrington Stanley.
Bayern Munich lost the first leg of their Champions League tie with PSG but created a multitude of chances in that game and the reigning European champions can come out on top this time.
And punters should complete the acca, which pays just over 13-1 with Hills, with a bet on Chelsea to beat Porto, just as they did so comfortably in the first leg in Seville.
