Our betting predictions for Manchester City vs Chelsea FC match are:
Manchester City vs Chelsea FC Betting Tips
Safe Bets
The reason behind the successful season of both the teams has been their strong defence. These 2 teams have had the most clean sheets in Europe this season. We thus expect it to be a low scoring match and thus betting on the combination of both teams not to score and total goals to be less than 2.5 at odds of 2.05(betway) is a really good bet to make.
Antonio Rudiger has been one of the main defenders for Chelsea this season delivering time and again. We expect Manchester City to be the more attacking team in this game and Rudiger will have to make many important tackles and thus betting on him to get more than 1.5 tackles at odds of 1.80(bet 365) is one of the safest bets of the match.
Both teams will start the game cautiously and will not risk much in the first half. Just like many previous Chelsea games, we expect the first half to be goalless and thus betting on the correct half time score to be 0-0 at odds of 2.50 (betway) is one of the best bets of the match.
Quick Rich
Both teams have been earning an average or around 6 corners per game this season. Both teams will go all in to win the match and in a match of such importance with so much at stake, the players will end up getting a few cards. Thus betting on the combination of the game to have more than 9.5 corners and more than 3.5 cards at odds of 3.00(betway) can give you high returns at minimal risk.
Betting on the scoreline is always a good way to earn big. We expect Manchester city to win the game with a scoreline of 1-0 at odds of 6.00 or 2-0 at odds of 8.00. (bet 365)
Win/Lose/Draw
Chelsea may have beaten Manchester City in their last 2 games but they have lost 3 out of their last 4 games and have lacked the defensive solidarity like before. This is Thomas Tuchel’s 2nd CL final in a row and he will be looking to make it count this time. However, Pep’s Manchester City with the right lineup and tactics just seem impossible to beat and with a chance to finally win the Champions League after all these years of disappointment, the players will be hungrier than ever. We expect Manchester City to win the match at odds of 1.90 (betway).
Bet During the Match
Rodri Hernandez is the key link between Manchester City’s attack and defence and has been averaging more than 85 passes this season for his team. If he starts the match, betting on him to get more 78.5 passes at odds of 1.83 (bet 365) is really good bet to make during the match.
