They picked nine teams to win and an astonishing four draws which all came to fruition in the games between Coventry vs Norwich, Millwall vs Hull, Cardiff vs Watford and Crystal Palace vs Nottingham Forest.

It could have all come crashing down in the first leg of the acca though, with Tottenham picked out to beat Luton.

They'd squandered a huge amount of chances in the first half and to make matters worse Yves Bissouma was sent off just before the first half came to an end thanks to a second yellow.

But it was Micky van de Ven who stepped up shortly after half time to put Spurs in front and ultimately started the accumulator off to reel in the wins.

Betfair punter’s winning 13-fold accumulator:

  • Luton vs Tottenham
  • Everton vs Bournemouth
  • Burnley vs Chelsea
  • Fulham vs Sheffield United
  • Cardiff v Watford draw
  • Sunderland vs Middlesbrough
  • QPR vs Blackburn
  • Coventry v Norwich draw
  • Leeds United vs Bristol City
  • Ipswich vs Preston
  • Leicester vs Stoke
  • Millwall v Hull draw 
  • Crystal Palace v Nottingham Forest draw

Odds: 5,273/1

Stake: £50

Winnings: £264,712

More games came close to losing the £50 bet though, with Coventry selected to gain a draw against Norwich, having already secured five draws from ten games.

Coventry were on top for the most part - their 21 shots were evidence of that but they were 1-0 down with a few minutes to go.

And with a bit of luck Coventry did score thanks to an own goal from Ben Gibson in the 88th minute.

Other results were wrapped up pretty quickly though, Blackburn won 4-0 over QPR and were already two to the good within the first 25 minutes.

Leicester too were also convincing winners, even though they were just 1-0 up for the majority of the game they stifled Stoke and ended up coming away with a 2-0 victory, with 74% possession and only conceding two shots all game, so much so it's unlikely to have panicked the lucky winner at any point through the 90 minutes.

Betfair Spokesperson, Sam Rosbottom said: “It’s been a memorable day for one Betfair punter who has taken us to the absolute cleaners with a game changing 13-fold accumulator, winning an incredible £264,000.”

“Hats off to the punter who, not only predicted a number of wins, but also correctly predicted four draws in matches across the Premier League and Championship.

“An 88th minute equaliser for Coventry against Norwich really rubbed the salt in our wounds, but that’s football, and from everyone at Betfair we have to wish them a huge congratulations!

“It’s been a great day for Betfair punters in general, with our SuperBoost of Son Heung-min to have one or more shots on target landing early in the first half against Luton Town today.”
