Chelsea’s focus will now shift to the first leg of their League Cup semi-final tie, with the team set to travel to Riverside Stadium to play Championship club Middlesbrough.
Who will win the match between Middlesbrough vs Chelsea?
Chelsea has shown great improvement in recent weeks in terms of both their win percentage and attacking prowess, and after taking into account their domestic standings, they will exert every effort to win a Cup.
Conversely, Middlesbrough is having trouble with their home form, as seen by their number of defeats since December, most of which came against Championship teams.
Moreover, Chelsea also has a great h2h record in the history of this matchup.
How many goals can be expected?
We expect goals in this match. Given that a substantial portion of the hosts’ recent matches have concluded with more than 2.5 goals. Furthermore, the visitors have also been scoring goals at a good clip in recent weeks, including three the last time they were on the road.
By the looks of things, a high-scoring affair is expected this time out.
The Verdict
The bookies have Chelsea as the favourite, and considering the quality discrepancy between the two sides in recent weeks, it looks like a good bet to support the Premier League side to win by a differential of two or more goals at odds of 2.49.
For the second tip, over 2.5 goals at 1.61 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches.
