Sunday Football Tips: Back 7/1 fouls special for Rome derby battle

The Rome derby is always a fiery affair, and this Sunday's clash between Lazio and Roma promises to be no different. With both teams vying for European places, expect a full-blooded battle at the Stadio Olimpico. OneFootball offers a unique betting opportunity: a 7/1 accumulator focusing on the fouls expected in this high-stakes encounter.

This isn't just about predicting a high-foul count; we're targeting specific players known for their aggressive playstyle. This strategy allows for a more precise bet, increasing your potential return.

The 7/1 Bet Builder: A Detailed Breakdown

Our 7/1 accumulator combines three legs, focusing on player fouls:

Leg 1: Valentin Castellanos (Lazio) - 2+ Fouls (4/6 odds)

Castellanos has been a key figure for Lazio this season, but his aggressive style often leads to fouls. He was sent off and committed five fouls in the reverse fixture. Given his history and the intensity of the derby, backing him for 2+ fouls at 4/6 is a strong starting point.

Leg 2: Gianluca Mancini (Roma) - 3+ Fouls (6/4 odds)

Mancini, a key defender for Roma, is known for his robust tackling. While playing away, the pressure and intensity of the derby might see him commit more fouls than usual. His four fouls in the first leg suggest he's capable of reaching three or more, making the 6/4 odds attractive.

Leg 3: Artem Dovbyk (Roma) - 2+ Fouls (11/10 odds)

Dovbyk is not only a prolific scorer but also a player who commits his fair share of fouls. Forwards often engage in pressing, increasing their chances of incurring fouls in intense derby matches. His previous record in similar high-pressure games supports this selection. At 11/10, the odds are favorable.

Why This Bet Works

The 7/1 odds reflect the risk involved in this accumulator bet. However, the selection process considers several factors:

• Player History: We've chosen players with a proven track record of committing fouls.
• Derby Intensity: The Rome derby is notorious for its physicality; more fouls are statistically likely.
• Individual Player Style: The chosen players have a playing style that increases the likelihood of fouls.
• Value Odds: While the overall accumulator offers 7/1, the individual leg odds suggest a reasonable probability of each leg succeeding.
