Premier League betting preview 25/02/2012

It’s going to be a very interesting afternoon in English Premier League today. With games like Chelsea – Bolton and Man City – Blackburn we might see some high wins from favorites but on the other hand this season in England is just unpredictable so we might as well see some surprices.

Chelsea – Bolton

Chelsea is an obvious favorite to win. After a surprising loss last weekend at Everton Andre Villas Boas is surely praying for 3 points at Stamford Bridge. The opponent should make it quite easy for Portuguese coach as Bolton will play without a few important players. Sordell, Alonso, Gardner, Davis, Holden, Davies and Chung-Yong are all injured. Should be quite easy for Chelsea so a win with 1.28 from Unibet

Newcastle – Wolves

After a heavy beating in London against Tottenham Newcastle is now coming back home and will fight hard to improve their performance in front of their own fans. Wolves are not in top form and the coach changes are never good for teams in middle of their season. Hard to expect Wolves to get anything out of this fixture. Newcastle to win with 1.57 from bet365

Manchester City – Blackburn

It’s not going that easy for Citizens in their Championship campaign. The local rivals are pushing them hard from 2nd place and in addition to that they had a hard Europa League game against FC Porto.

But Roberto Mancini has a strong team with a wide bench. Another addition to this bench will be Carlos Tevez. A likely come back for Argentinian international might be very helpful for the remaining part of this season.

Blackburn is fighting its relegation battle. Last win against QPR gave another very important 3 points but now it will be much harder and I’m not expecting points for quests in this match. City to win with 1.80 from Unibet

 

Premier League: Norwich – Chelsea (21/01/2012)

Time to look into the next Premier League round. It will all begin with a Norwich City – Chelsea London game. Both teams are on a run of two league wins. Norwich won against West Brom and QPR, while Chelsea beaten Sunderland and Wolves.

Chelsea will play without Obi Mikel and Ivanovic and Norwich will have to do without Vaughan and Ward.

In recent interviews John Terry made it clear that he is still hoping to win the league this season. “I won’t ever give up. I am sure my team-mates and the management are the same,” Terry insisted to TalkSPORT. While the other news from Stamford Bridge are claiming that Drogba is close to exit in order to make some more space for Fernando Torres

Odds are still decent – around 1.60 for Chelsea win, but the tendency is dropping and some bookies are already at 1.50. Might be a good idea to place your bets fast as the Blues win should be on the schedule for this weekend.

Premier League: Chelsea – Sunderland (14/01/2012)

Chelsea is surely not performing as mr Roman Abramovich would expect. The Blues are currently on 4th position in league table already 11 points behind Manchester City. It all makes it very difficult to dream about winning the league. But to keep dreaming Chelsea has to win against Sunderland.

Chelsea won their last Premier League game against Wolves, but the 3 points didn’t come easy. The Blues were leading after Ramires goal early in second half, but on 85th minute Ward made it 1:1 and a lucky strike from Lampard in 89th minute gave the win. Chelsea has to do better against Sunderland.

The quests are in quite good shape. They’ve won their last 2 league games against Wigan and Manchester City. Especially win over Citizens shows that this team can be dangerous for any opponent.

Still Chelsea is favorite here and should do well at their own stadium.

Premier League: Chelsea – Man City Preview

Another huge game of the weekend after the Gran Derbi in La Liga. Two of the richest clubs in the World will face each other at Stamford Bridge in London. A win from Citizens will mean they will be 13 points ahead of The Blues which even at such early stage of season makes a great lead in the championship race.

Both teams made quite easy wins in their last Premier League games. Chelsea beaten Newcastle 3:0 while Man City left no chances to Norwich smashing them 5:1.

There are no big injury problems in both teams. Chelsea will play only without Essies, while the only injured player of Citizens is Kolarov.

Now some game facts:

  • Man City scored goals in only 4 out of 13 last Premier League games against Chelsea
  • Citizens haven’t scored in in eight of their last nine league visits to Stamford Bridge.
  • The Londoners have scored a 90th-minute goal in three of their last four home Premier League games against Manchester City.
  • Manchester City are unbeaten in their last eight Premier league away games, winning six.
  • Juan Mata has now assisted seven goals in his last nine Premier League appearances for Chelsea – only David Silva(8) has more assists this season.
  • Man City have made the best ever start to a Premier League season with 38 points from their opening 14 matches.
  • Sergio Aguero has scored 11 goals in 13 Premier League appearances this season.

And now to betting. It all looks we will have a very close game with draw quite likely result. Citizens have a good chance to improve their scoring record against Chelsea with Aguero most likely scorer.

Small stake on draw with 3.40 from bet365 plus a free bet to use in play on this game.
