Chelsea vs Sheffield United Betting Tips
Safe Bets
Chelsea have conceded only two goals in their last thierteen games keeping six consecutive clean sheets and have conceded the second least goals in the Premier league. Sheffield United on the other hand have only scored once in their last six and are the lowest scoring Premier League team. Therefore betting on Chelsea to keep a clean sheet at odds of 1.65 (betway) is one of the safest bets of the match.
We expect this to be an easy win for Chelsea and expect them to score many goals. Sheffield conceded 5 against Leicester in their last match and thus betting on the correct score to be 2-0, 3-0 or 4-0 in favour of Chelsea at odds of 2.62 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Olivier Giroud has been pretty impressive for Chelsea whenever he has started for them. He hasn’t started the last 4 matches and we expect him to start the match. Sheffield United will not be able to handle his aerial strength and experience and thus betting on him to score in the match at odds of 1.83 (William Hill) can be a good bet to make.
Quick Rich
Mason Mount has been one of the most important men for Chelsea in their midfield this season. He has the most accurate shots in his team and also takes the most freekicks. He is almost certain to start this game after missing out midweek due to suspension and thus betting on him to get more than1 shot on target at odds of 3.80 (William Hill) can be a good bet to make.
John Lundstram has the second most yellow cards in the Premier league this season at 7. Betting on him to get a yellow card at odds of 5.50 (William Hill) can give you high returns at minimal risk.
Win/Lose/Draw
Chelsea are unbeaten in all of their 13 games under Thomas Tuchel winning 9 of them. They should get a comfortable win against Sheffield United whose poor season will give them little hope of performing a miracle in this quarter final tie. Thus betting on a Chelsea win at odds of 1.22 (betway) is an easy bet to make.
Bet During the Match
Chelsea haven’t lost a match under Tuchel and if somehow Sheffield United get the first goal, betting on Chelsea to come from behind and win the match at current odds of 8.50 (betway) can be a good bet to make during the match.
