trayman Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st In my opinion, considering latest Citizen results which are tragic, Mourinho will be under pressure to gather nothing less than 3 points from this game. I really hate watching Chelsea playing big opponents because of Mourinhos mentality as he always plays very defensive football against them. But the factor that Chelsea has to win to establish strong position at the top of the league table AND on the other hand considering still very high offensive potential of Manchester City which HAS TO bounce back at some point (they really struggle lately, didn't score against Arsenal and M'borough - is there a better opportunity to break losing streak than winning with championship competitor away?). For me that's the kind of game when both teams will throw at least one punch against each other. Both teams to score @ 1.66 with bet365 - that's the play for me. BTTS and over 2.5 @ 2.10 with bet365 also seems like good play but I think I won't risk it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho_CFC Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st I hope we win. But i think the play here is the draw. 11/4 WH If we win then we go 8 points clear of City which could be too much for them to overcome. On the other hand if we lose we just have a 2 point lead. I think Mourinho would settle for the 5 point lead especially as we don't have to play them again, and to some extent i think city might as well seeing as there is a long way to go and they don't want to be out of it too early. I think it will be tight and could well be nicked by a goal here or there but its a game that screams draw to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sajtion Posted January 26, 2015 Share Posted January 26, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st i'm think man city will definitely have to go for the win. their form is questionable with aguero not in best form. chelsea will be pre-occupied with the carling cup match in midweek against liverpool and it will give man city a slight advantage in preparations. i think chelsea have good quality players but there is a little bit of complacency creeping into their game.

Mourinho will probably play on the counter here to keep the 5 points lead and hopefully win if they can. For me, I'm going to go with the under 2.5 goals.

Aidymac Posted January 29, 2015 Author Share Posted January 29, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st There are certainly reasons to be optimistic about Man City getting some sort of result at the Bridge this weekend. 1) Diego Costa is facing a 3 match ban, has until tonight to appeal but looks like he is out. 2) City should have a fitness edge, Chelsea had a tough 180 mins v Liverpool midweek. 3) Mourinho has not rotated the team much at all this season, and you can see the fatigue over the last few weeks. 4) City cannot afford to lose this game. In saying that, it's very hard to back against Chelsea at the Bridge, everyone knows how tough Mourinho always has been at home. I will probably sit it out betting wise, but the draw could be a good way to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will probably sit it out betting wise, but the draw could be a good way to go. I don't agree so much about fatigue. Against Bradford only Azpilicueta, Cahill and Oscar started, so the main team had mostly (Hazard, Fabregas and Willian coming on) a weeks rest between the two Liverpool ties. Will Mourinho play for a draw at home? Seems really unlikely to me, but then I'm not a Chelsea fan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexc Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st I see what you're saying but I just can't imagine if it's say, seventy minutes left, Mourinho will want his players to sit on the draw. He must surely be smart enough to see Man City's defence is paper thin, and if they have a go it's more likely they'll score than concede. It just seems unimaginable to me, perhaps people are overplaying the negative Mourinho thing? They're more attacking this season, and when I've seen them play I've been impressed with their creativity. No Costa and Fabregas wouldn't help matter though.

kevshat Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st 4pts Under 2.5 goals Evs Betway I think this will be a fairly tight game because defeat is more disastrous to whoever loses than avoiding defeat. You’d think if Chelsea win this match the title is as good as theirs but a draw keeps the title very much alive even for City who would probably consider a point as a good return given who they have available and not. City have just struggled for goals while Fabregas and Costa could be big losses for Chelsea so a low scoring chess battle could ensue here.

mrclubbie Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st Some fatigue might kick in for Chelsea. My side here offers City +1.5 @ 1.25, which looks good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TotoSchillaci Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st Don't know why people are saying 8 point gap spells the end of the title race? There's still half a season to go and this is England where any minnow can take points off you. Neither of these teams are going to win every match until the end like Barca or Real. Not a foregone conclusion. Chelsea play the same 11 in every EPL match more or less and maybe in the coming months combined with the European Cup, we'll see a physical breakdown in this side. Mourinho could get away with that at Madrid because in Spain the matches aren't as physically demanding as in the EPL. You don't stop running and you are challenged physically by every team. I agree with some people above who say we are seeing signs of tiredness in the Chelsea players. Jose insists on the same "chosen" players for an important match and now we can see a drop in the performances of Costa, Hazard and Terry most notably. Nothing major, they just aren't as sharp as a few months ago. What will happen in another couple of months at this rate? Mourinho would take a 1-1 if you offered it now to him but no result would really surprise me here and it's a no bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AF13 Posted January 31, 2015 Share Posted January 31, 2015 Re: Chelsea v Manchester City > Saturday January 31st CHELSEA - MANCHESTER CITY Chelsea to win at 2.20 @ Marathonbet The absence of Diego Costa is crucial for Chelsea at the super derby against Manchester City. The Spanish striker had a three-games ban after his violent conduct at the midweek match against Liverpool for the League Cup. The Blues have now a 5-points margin from City and the have combined with wins all their 10 home league games this season. Taking into account the problems at both teams, City could have chances for the three points. Nevertheless, I think that Mourinho knows the way to leave victorious from such type of matches.

Not quite. This is the best draw you will ever see. Even better than the normal "X" in the end of season in Serie B, Italy. My house on it, with my mother inside. Tremendous value on the draw here, should be close to evens, and I'm serious. I'm backing it in the thousands £. 0-0 or 1-1 Cheers lads!
