Aiming High for Glory in Top-Flight Football Leagues: Accumulator Tip for February 02

While some European teams bask in glory, others find themselves in a quest for redemption this Friday. Heidenheim faces the formidable Dortmund, aiming for maximum points after a winless start in 2024, marked by three consecutive draws. In France, PSG strives to reignite confidence after an unfortunate draw with Brest. Lastly, in Italy, Fiorentina seeks a return to winning ways, looking to overcome their recent struggles as they clash with Lecce at Stadio Comunale Via del Mare.

Heidenheim vs. Dortmund

Heidenheim currently sit in tenth place with 23 points in the Bundesliga standings, and the debutants have kicked off the season impressively thus far as they enjoy an 11-point buffer above the relegation zone. Last time out in a mid-table clash, Heidenheim were held to a 1-1 draw against Hoffenheim, extending their league run to three successive stalemates. With home advantage at their disposal, they'll be seeking to record their first league win of the year.

Dortmund currently sits in fourth place with 36 points in the Bundesliga standings, and they've had an impressive season thus far, even though only thirteen points separate them from the top spot. Last time out, Dortmund secured a comfortable 3-1 win over Bochum, extending their winning streak to three matches. But that's just scratching the surface, considering they haven't lost in five matches (W3 D2), a run they'll seek to extend to six matches.

Given that Dortmund boast the third-best away record in the Bundesliga this season with just one defeat in their last nine matches (W4 D4), we expect them to cruise to a comfortable victory in this one when all is said and done.

Lecce vs. Fiorentina

Lecce currently sit in 14th place with 21 points in the Serie A standings and have yet to meet the expectations of their fans this season as three points separate them from the relegation zone. Last time out, they squandered a one-goal lead to lose 2-1 against Genoa, which signified their ninth defeat in 22 matches and their sixth league run without a win (L5 D1). Lecce have one objective in mind in this upcoming encounter, and that's to get back to the win column, although their home form, which has seemed to be a single win in eight matches (D4 L3), suggests that they'll be in for a difficult time.

Fiorentina currently sits in sixth place with 34 points and has no reason to complain about their excellent form this season, although their form has been a bit rocky in the past few weeks. Last time out against Inter Milan, they succumbed to a 1-0 defeat, and this follows a 3-0 defeat to Napoli in the Supercoppa Italiana semifinal. With a three-match winless run in the league (L2 D1), Fiorentina will fancy their chances of getting back to winning ways.

Lecce are a side that can't be discounted in this one despite being underdogs, and picking up a winner in the full-time market can go sideways. Hence, we recommend exploring the corner market, considering a bet on the total number of corners surpassing 8.5, as it appears enticing at the moment.

Strasbourg vs. PSG

Strasbourg currently sits in tenth place with 25 points in the Ligue 1 standings and is enjoying a favorable season under the guidance of Patrick Vieira. In their latest league match, they were held to a 1-1 draw against Clermont Foot, extending their unbeaten run across all competitions to eight matches (W5 D3), and they aim to stretch that undefeated streak to nine matches.

PSG is currently leading the Ligue 1 standings, perched at the top with 44 points, and has had an impressive season thus far. In their latest league match, they were held to a 2-2 draw at home against Brest, although this result halted a four-match winning streak across all competitions. However, there's still a positive aspect to draw from their performance, as they've maintained a consistent form leading up to this match, currently holding an undefeated streak of thirteen matches.

Strasbourg have not had any luck when playing against PSG in their previous meetings, as they are winless in their last thirteen matches (L9 D4), and that streak is anticipated to persist in this match, even with the advantage of playing on their home turf. Therefore, we anticipate the visitors, coupled with their attacking prowess, to secure a comfortable victory by backing them up in the full-time market, combined with the total of over 2.5 goals.
