Competition: FA Cup
Market: Chelsea to win against Man City
Odds: 1/2 @ 888 Sport

Chelsea and Manchester City lock horns at Stamford Bridge in the FA Cup fifth round this afternoon. The two sides are desperate to progress in the competition as their Premier League campaign has been suffering of late.

The hosts have had an affinity with the FA Cup, having won it four times in the last 10 years, and they’re coming off the back of good form of late too. Under interim manager Guus Hiddink, the Blues are enjoying a 10-game unbeaten run in the Premier League, and could be a challenge for City as a result.

As for the visitors, Manuel Pellegrini’s men aren’t in good form. They have suffered consecutive league defeats, and could have a weakened eleven with their manager looking to rest key players. As a result, Chelsea may well be in the driving seat to earn a big win.

With Chelsea’s Premier League campaign having little objective following their woeful start, they will be targeting the cup competitions as a chance for silverware. As a result, the Londoners are being backed by 888 Sport with odds of 1/2 to win against City.
