CHELSEA VS MANCHESTER CITY BETTING

CHELSEA

Chelsea, who beat Sheffield United 2-0 in the FA Cup quarter-finals, may feel hard done by the FA Cup draw this time around, after being matched with the tournament favourites Manchester City for a FA Cup semi-final clash this Saturday. 

After falling short of their mark in last year’s FA Cup final where they lost out to Arsenal (2-1), the Blues now look like a team on a mission, reinvigorated and certainly capable of adding silverware to their cabinet this season. Since Thomas Tuchel’s appointment, Chelsea have been on a rampage in all competitions, dropping three points only once in their last 17 games. 

Even though the Blues find themselves bang in the middle of a top-four Premier League battle, we expect them to come out roaring this Saturday for their FA Cup semi-final fixture against the table-toppers. Four-time FA Cup winner Olivier Giroud measures up at 11/9 (3.20) to find the back of the net this weekend, with Tammy Abraham at 12/5 (3.40) to score and Timo Werner at 3/1 (4.00) to give his side the advantage. 

Chelsea are calculated at 8/1 (9.00) to win this Saturday with both teams getting on the scoresheet. 

 MANCHESTER CITY 

Six-time FA Cup winners Manchester City travel to Wembley Stadium to take on Thomas Tuchel’s Chelsea in what is sure to be an epic FA Cup semi-final this Saturday.

It’s no secret that Pep Guardiola and Manchester City are on the hunt for silverware this season. With an upcoming EFL Cup final against Tottenham already pencilled in, the current Premier League table toppers – who are 11 points clear from the competition, will surely have dreams of completing a domestic treble by making it to the final stages of the FA Cup.

While Chelsea were under a different regime at the time of their last fixture against Manchester City, Pep’s side easily displayed the gulf in quality between the teams, comfortably sinking their rivals by taking the full three points in a 3-1 away victory. On that day all of the goals were scored in the first half by Ilkay Gundogan, who is at 8/5 (2.60) to add another this Saturday, Phil Foden at 11/5 (3.20) and Kevin De Bruyne at 7/4 (2.75).

Sergio Aguero also comes in as a favourite to find the back of the net in the FA Cup semi-final at 6/5 (2.20), with his side measured at 27/10 (3.70) to win the FA Cup draw with both sides scoring.
