MANCHESTER CITY VS CHELSEA BETTING TIPS AND PREDICTIONS

You couldn't ask for a better fixture to open up the day's action as the team playing the best football on the planet at the present time travel to Manchester City.
Carlo Ancelotti's Chelsea team are going from strength-to-strength and they've been the short-priced favourites in literally every match they've played so far this season. Fans of the Blues can finally lock in a price above even-money on their side as they travel to Eastlands for what looks like their most difficult fixture this season. 
Manchester City are still in good shape on the table, but the team just doesn't look to be firing on all cylinders. They'll need to pick it up if they're going to try to get anything resembling a result today. 
Manchester City's odds to beat Chelsea are trading at 12/5 while the draw is priced at 11/5 and Chelsea trade at a 6/5 listing. 
Interestingly enough, the favoured correct score outcome looks to be a 1-1 draw, which trades at 6/1. You can get a 1-0 result to Chelsea at a 7/1 price while a 2-1 victory pays out at 15/2. 
A 2-2 result would pay a 14/1 margin while a 0-0 draw is a rather plausible outcome as well and you can get a 10/1 price there. 
Should City pull off the upset, they're favoured to do so by a 1-0 margin and you can get a 9/1 price on that while a 2-1 result pays out at 11/1. 
Carlos Tevez is Manchester City's favoured goalscorer and he's priced at a 7/4 listing while Emmanuel Adebayor's odds to score are listed at 9/4. Jo is at 10/3 with Roque Santa Cruz available at 7/2. Adam Johnson is in solid form and you can lock in a 5/1 price on him. 
Didier Drogba is Chelsea's favoured anytime goalscorer at a 6/5 price with Nicolas Anelka at 15/8 and Frank Lampard at a 2/1 price. Daniel Sturridge and Florent Malouda can both be backed at 9/4 while Salomon Kalou trades at 11/4. 
The best pick, value-wise, is an anytime bet on Michael Essien if he's in Chelsea's starting lineup. You can also get a 7/1 on BOTH Carlos Tevez and Didier Drogba to score anytime with William Hill.
