Chelsea look terrific value at 9/5 with sportingbet on the handicap (-2 goals) to win their away game at Brentford in the fourth round of the FA Cup today (12pm KO, Live on ESPN).
The Blues, who are as short as 2/9 in the outright market, will be hurting after their semi-final defeat to Swansea in the Capital One Cup, and the Bees could well feel the backlash.
Rafa Benitez will surely put out a strong side to get the job done at the first time of asking, and the stats are certainly good as far as Chelsea are concerned.
They have won 15 of their last 16 fourth round ties in the competition, and only lost one of their last 35 FA Cup games outright.
The holders have also shipped just nine goals in their last 13 away FA Cup games combined, and face a team that have won just one of their last 13 FA Cup games against Premier League sides.
The home side will undoubtedly be under pressure right form the first whistle, and if Chelsea can bag an early goal then the floodgates could open judge on recent wide margin away wins at Stoke (4-0) and Southampton (5-1).
That’s sets up a potentially tasty punt, and makes Chelsea look maasively overpricved at 9/5 (-2) on the handicap with sportingbet.
As far as the goalscoring markets aI am very keen on Juan Mata.
He has now scored four goals in just eight FA Cup appearances and makes plenty of appeal at standout 5/1 with Coral and Ladbrokes to score the opener, and looks s teal at 5/4 with the same firms to score anytime
I am going to take Chelsea to regsiter and easy 4-0 success, and that is 13/1 chnace with BetVictor.
