Chelsea continued their winning run as they demolished Malmo 4-0 midweek in the Champions league, however their two strikers, Lukaku and Werner suffered injuries during the match and had to be substituted. They now face Norwich in the league at home on Saturday afternoon and will look to extend their winning streak as Norwich are last on the league table with only two points from eight games.
Our betting predictions for Chelsea vs Norwich City match are:
Chelsea vs Norwich City Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Chelsea have conceded the least goals in the league this season, while Norwich have scored the least with only two goals in eight games. Hence betting on Chelsea to win to nil at odds of 1.72 (bet365) is one of the safest bets of the match.
With Lukaku, Pulisic and Werner injured, Ziyech should get a start against Norwich and therefore betting on him to have over two shots on target at odds of 2.00 is another safe bet.
With Chelsea’s key attackers unavailable for the match and Norwich out of form offensively, we expect it to be a low scoring match and suggest betting on less than 2.5 goals being scored at odds of 2.20 (bet365).
Quick Rich
Kai Havertz is the only striker available for Tuchel and hence we expect him to start as the central attacker for Chelsea. Hence betting on him to take over four shots at odds of 3.00 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Betting on the scoreline is the best way to earn high returns. Chelsea should be able to get an easy win due to their squad depth and defensive discipline and we expect the final scoreline to be Chelsea 1-0 Norwich City at odds of 7.00 (bet365) or 2-0 at odds of 6.00 (bet365).
Win/Lose/Draw
The league leaders, Chelsea will be looking to maintain their position as the title race gains speed. They should be able to dominate a weaker Norwich side and our favourites to win the game at odds of 1.20 (betway).
Bet During the Match
Callum Hudson Odoi was impressive against Malmo midweek and if he starts the match, betting on him to take over 3 shots at odds of 2.50 (betway) is another good bet.
