Today’s FA Cup fifth round clash between Man City and Chelsea promises to be cracker (5.15pm KO, Live on ITV1), and the visitors look terrific value at 13/5 to emerge victorious.
Jose Mourinho’s side have already done the double over City in the league and were value for more than their 1-0 winning margin when they met at the Etihad.
Their manager proved that day that he is undoubtedly the master tactician when it comes to big games and they created plenty of chances and were quite simply the better side.
City boss Manuel Pellegrini was quick to point out in the post match interview that the loss of Fernandinho in his starting XI didn’t help matters, and that player – along with Sergio Aguero – is set to miss this game.
That is a major blow for the Citizens and it’s hard to see how they will turn the form around with Chelsea based on their last meeting in the league.
It makes the visistors look a big price at the 13/5 on offer with bet365, BetVictor and Hills and at those odds they simply have to be the bet.
Eden Hazard has been in outstanding form for Chelsea and makes plenty of appeal in the first goalscorer market at the 10/1 on offer with Stan James.
