Football – England – Premier League Betting Tips
Saturday evening brings us a double-header with the first match being an enticing clash between Chelsea and Manchester City as the betting tips continue at Stamford Bridge.
Fourth placed Chelsea suffered a major setback during the week when they lost 2-1 away at unfancied Wolves when Chelsea looked for all money to be heading towards a comfortable three points at Molineux.
However, goals from Jimenez and Diogo Jota sealed a great comeback win for Wolves and condemned Chelsea to a second Premier League defeat in three matches, following their recent 3-1 loss at Tottenham.
Manager Sarri must get his players back on track for this important encounter and he’ll be demanding a response from his players when they return to Stamford Bridge where they’ve posted a solid record of 5-3-0 17/7 which includes recent wins against Crystal Palace and Fulham.
While Chelsea were coming unstuck in the west midlands, the Manchester City juggernaut kept rolling with a 2-1 win away at Watford as the visitors posted a seventh Premier League win on the trot and extended City’s unbeaten run to a staggering 21 matches in all competitions.
Manchester City are therefore unlikely to have any qualms or fears about heading down to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea as they look to record a fifth away win from their last six outings on the road following impressive wins at Arsenal, Cardiff City, Tottenham, West Ham and Watford so far this term.
The visitors are accompanied by an away record of 5-2-0 15/2 which also includes five clean sheets, but they’re likely to face a Chelsea onslaught here this evening with the hosts desperate to claw back the ground they lost in midweek.
The betting tips suggest backing both teams to score here.
