Can 11/2 Blackburn Shock Chelsea in the Cup?

The FA Cup semi final draw looks set up for a Man United v Chelsea final but their respective semi-finalist opponents will have something to say about the matter! While Watford face a massive task in overcoming United at Villa Park on Saturday, Blackburn Rovers will be fearless when going into Sunday's Old Trafford clash against Chelsea and look huge at 11/2 (Paddy Power) to cause an upset. The Blues certainly don't look a formidable force at the moment, despite clinging to the coat-tails of Man United in the Premiership and winning the Carling Cup. With a massive European clash against Valencia on Tuesday, they look a touch skinny at 8/15 (Blue Square) to beat the Lancashire team, while the draw is a big runner at 5/2 (Paddy Power). Chelsea will certainly have to match the physical might of Rovers to ensure they get through and there's been a fair amount of needle in recent matches between the two teams. Paddy Power deserve credit for pricing up several markets in advance, including correct score, where Blackburn are a huge 20/1 to win 2-1, while Chelsea are available at 7/1 for that scoreline in their favour.
