Manchester City vs Chelsea Betting Tips PT 2
- By A.J. Ryder on February 3, 2014 16:41 GMTExpect to see a 4-3-3 formation deployed by Mourinho and you can also expect a lone striker at the top of that line-up. Expect to see Samuel Eto’o instead of Fernando Torres - who picked up an injury in their last match-up against West Ham. There is an interesting variable that could see him draft in somebody out of position to play in one of the other forward slots.

He could also hand a start to Demba Ba.
Manchester City can be backed at a 1.85 price tag to get the outright victory here against the Blues. Chelsea can be backed at a 4.5 price tag and that’s a great set of odds if you really think that Mourinho has something up his sleeve for this one. The draw can be backed at a 3.6 price tag and you can expect some volume on that wager - particularly during the in-play wagering.
Alvaro Negredo is getting the edge as the likeliest player to score a goal at any point in the match. The bookmakers have him floating around 2.20 for the outright strike while Eden Dzeko - who is in a rich vein of form at the moment - is available at 2.62. The odds then take a pretty considerable jump up to Stevan Jovetic who is a 3.5 shot for the anytime goal. As usual, Yaya Toure is dangerous and worth keeping your eyes on here with a listing of 3.5 as well.
Also priced at 3.5 is Samuel Eto’o and he is a really interesting shout here who has some real potential to get on the score sheet considering his latest run of goalscoring form and the lack of other striking options up front for the Chelsea players. Demba Ba is a 4.33 price tag while Eden Hazard is trading at the same price.
