The big Premier League game of the day sees Chelsea play host to Manchester City (5.30pm KO, Live on Sky Sports 1) and in a tough game to call the visitors look the value bet at the general 13/5 on offer.
Both sides come into the game on the back of some uninsipring perfomances, with Chelsea getting beaten by Bradford in the FA Cup before struggling to beat Liverpool 1-0 in a controversial game which resulted in their key striker Diego Costa getting banned for three games for stamping.
He will be absent today as a result, and that is a major blow and will give City – who have lost their last two games – a real feeling that they can win this.
The Citizens are a real force to be reckoned with when on-song, and manager Manuel Pellegrini knows that only 3 points will do from this encounter.
He is sure to have his players fired up, and I can’t help but feel that they will get at Chelsea from the off and rattle them.
If that proves to be the case I can see Jose Mourihno’s men losing it, and City have the players to exploit the situation.
Segrio Aguero looks too big at 7/1 with Labdrokes and William Hill in the first goalscorer market, and I am going to take City to win 2-0 at odds of 21/1 with BetVictor.
