2018 FA Cup Final Preview PT 2

The fact that the match is being played in London makes it a bit of a de facto home contest for the Blue side and United will have plenty of fans there in full voice as well this time out.

The draw could really be a fascinating wager for a lot of people since extra time would certainly lend a fair amount of intrigue to this contest and with two sides so packed full of potential match winners it wouldn’t be a big shock to see them cancel each other out a bit going forward.

What’s especially interesting is that very little in terms of the odds actually separates Chelsea, United and the draw so it’s really anybody’s guess at this point - which usually means this could be a match ripe for in-play wagering. Don’t expect the odds to shift around too much after the kick-off but you will still be able to pick up the rhythm of the game by getting a look at the different player match-ups and potentially spotting a few weak points.

In regards to the outright odds to lift the trophy, it appears as though a number of bookmakers have the teams absolutely deadlocked with very little separating either of them.

It’s also worth noting that the bookmakers have priced the “no” option on the both teams to score market as the slim favourite here so that tells you quite a bit about how they think the contest is going to go.

At this point in time as well it appears as though the bookmakers think that a 1-1 draw is the most likely outcome since that is the lowest priced correct score margin this year.
