Today's best accumulator bets
Bets to be placed by 7.30pm Tuesday
Bochum to beat Arminia Bielefeld
Aston Villa to beat Norwich
Hibernian to beat Dundee
Manchester City to beat Leeds
Promoted Bochum have won five of their last eight league games, while Arminia Bielefeld have won once all season. Aston Villa should have too much for the Premier League's lowest-scoring side Norwich.
Hibernian have better underlying numbers than their recent form suggests and Manchester City should be able to get the better of an injury-depleted Leeds side.

Bet of the day
Hibernian to beat Dundee, 7.45pm Tuesday
A terrible run of form saw Jack Ross depart as Hibs boss, but the Edinburgh side's underlying numbers are broadly similar to last season and they should turn the corner sooner rather than later. Their opponents Dundee suffered a defeat to relegation rivals Ross County on Saturday and look up against it here.

Assist bet of the day
Norwich v Aston Villa, BT Sport 3, 7.45pm Tuesday
Emi Buendia may come back to the starting line-up against Norwich and can haunt his former side by turning provider for his Aston Villa teammates. The Argentinian racked up 15 assists last season and has two this campaign. Back on familiar territory, he could pick up another.

Emi Buendia to make an assist
