Analysts say Guardiola’s team will win today
Manchester City will play Chelsea on January 8 in the third round of the FA Cup. According to bookmakers’ analysts, Citizens are the clear favorite of the match.
Manchester City win bets are taken at the rate of 1×1.38. Odds to win Chelsea – 1×8.5. A draw comes with a quote of 1×5.2.
And the point here is not only in the defeat of Chelsea from Manchester City in a match three days ago in the 19th round of the championship, but also in the general state of affairs of the Blues. Over the last eight rounds of the Premier League, Graham Potter’s wards won only one victory, beating one of the outsiders – Bournemouth, but lost four times. And the last defeat, already mentioned from Manchester City, also deprived the team of Pulisic and Sterling, who were injured during the meeting.
Manchester City, after the break in the championship, lost points only once in three matches, unexpectedly drawing with Everton, and beating Leeds in addition to Chelsea. In the League Cup, the Citizens knocked out Liverpool. And in general, Guardiola’s team looks very solid.
Manchester City have won all four of their last four head-to-head matches against Chelsea in all competitions. At the same time, the Citizens did not concede a single goal in these matches. But they didn’t score much either: in no match, more than two goals were sent into the Chelsea goal net. And if so, then bet “total under 3.5” for 1.5 seems like a good option.
