Chelsea vs Real Madrid Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Edouard Mendy was the biggest reason for Chelsea’s success in this tournament last year. He will step up once again and we expect him to keep a clean sheet at odds of 2.50 (betway).
Mason Mount has been a regular starter for Chelsea and we expect him to get 1 or more shots on target which at odds of 1.53 (betway) is one of the safest bets of the match.
Karim Benzema has been one of the standout players in Europe this season. He will have a lot of chances and thus betting on him to get 3 or more shots in this game at odds of 1.90 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Quick Rich
We expect the game to very low scoring with very few attacks. Betting on the game to have a combination of under 2.5 goals and under 9.5 corners at odds of 3.20 (betway) can give high returns at minimal risk.
As we expect it to be a low scoring match, betting on the first half scoreline to end as 0-0 at odds of 2.62 (bet365) can be a good bet.
Win/Lose/Draw
This quarter final will be one of the most awaited ones as one side lie the reigning Champions league winners in Chelsea and on the other side lie the record 13 time winners Real Madrid. We expect Real Madrid to be the better team but with the support of their home crowd, Chelsea will give in their all and we therefore expect the match to end as a draw at odds of 3.40. (bet 365).
Bet During the Match
If any team scores early on in the match, the team which concedes will be in a lot of pressure and may end up getting some cards and theref qore betting on the game to have more than 4.5 cards at current odds of 1.72 (bet 365) is a bet you should not miss out on.
