ATLETICO MADRID VS CHELSEA CHAMPIONS LEAGUE BETTING TIPS

Chelsea visit Atletico Madrid in one of the premier matches taking place during today's Champions League action. Carlo Ancelotti's side are odds-on favourites at Betfair with a price trading at around 1.95. You can back the home side at 4.5 or take the draw at 3.65. This could be a tricky one for Chelsea, but they've been solid on all fronts this year and I firmly expect them to win.
Chelsea are a team that really specializes in doing just enough to win and this appears to be one of those matches. I don't expect a 3-0 or 4-0 blowout, but a solid 2-0 or 2-1 win is just the ticket. I'm quite sure the Blues would be happy with a 1-0 margin at the end of 90 minutes.
The shortest priced correct score options are listed at 8.2 for 1-0 to Chelsea and 7.6 for the 1-1 draw. 2-1 to Chelsea pays out at an even 10.0 and that's about right for me.
Atletico's strikers should be able to put Chelsea's to the sword in front of the home fans and Sergio Aguero is listed at 3.9 while Diego Forlan carries a 3.55 price. You'll find Jose Antonio Reyes at 9.0 while Maxi Rodriguez is available at 9.4.
For Chelsea, Didier Drogba is just back from a ban and he'll be looking to make things happen. Drogba is 2.88 to score anytime and Nicolas Anelka can be backed at 3.55. Frank Lampard is trading at around 2.6 while Michael Essien is 10.5. I'd keep my eye on him today if he gets the start.
In the half-time/full-time market, I like Draw/Chelsea at 5.4 while I've also got my eye on Atletico Madrid/Chelsea at 30.0- that's a quality price.
