Best Picks for Sunday: Accumulator Tips for January 21

Accumulator advice for the third Sunday in 2024 spans across the European League. One of the highlights of this set of fixtures is the match between the league-leading Saint-Gilloise and St. Truiden in the Belgian League. In other matchups, Lugano will face Lausanne, and Ajax will play against Waalwijk. Let's provide predictions for these matches below, accompanied by critical analysis.

Union Saint-Gilloise vs St. Truiden

Union Saint-Gilloise has proven to be formidable against all opponents in the Jupiler Pro League this season, maintaining an extended undefeated streak and securing victories. On the other hand, St. Truiden enters this match with a four-game unbeaten run, but their difficulty in achieving wins may pose a significant challenge, especially when facing Union Saint-Gilloise, known for their well-balanced defensive and offensive capabilities. Consequently, my prediction is in favor of the home team winning and scoring a minimum of two goals.

Lugano vs Lausanne

Neither of the teams has experienced the season they likely envisioned at the start, but there are still positive aspects for both. The home team appears to be a contender for a spot in the championship group, while the visiting team continues to grapple with challenges at the bottom and appears unconvincing so far. Additionally, considering Lugano's dominant performance against Lausanne in the previous leg, even while playing away, I anticipate their continued strength in this match. Consequently, I am confident in predicting that the home team will secure all three points in this encounter.

Ajax vs Waalwijk

Ajax continues to improve steadily as the season advances, and with the addition of new signings, expectations are high for a strong performance from the team aiming for European competition next season. In contrast, Waalwijk appears disheartened and lacking direction, desperately hoping to avoid relegation by the season's end. Nonetheless, Ajax seems to have finally hit their stride this season, and with their momentum increasing, they are likely to overpower the struggling Waalwijk side on their home turf.
