S.P.Read Esq: Man City v Chelsea
Our daily columnist and pundit S.P. Read Esq. looks ahead to the 4pm kick off on Sunday in the Premier League between MAN CITY v CHELSEA and finds the best opportunities available on Star Spreads, the home of sports spread betting.
Decent profit from the QPR v Cardiff City game last night of 175 points with the recommended sell of the 2nd match goal on Star Spreads.
It’s completely ludicrous to talk of a game as being a ‘title decider’ when it’s the second week of the season but you just wonder if Man City win comfortably how that will impact the rest of the season ?
Chelsea would then be a draw and a loss from two games which surely must be a massive deflator for the defending champions ?
That’s not lost on Jose Mourinho who said: “We are speaking about 38 matches. It is an eternity, a marathon that started last week. I cannot say [this match] is not crucial, I cannot say it’s not very, very, very important. They are title contenders so three points are important, but I cannot say that a win will mean anything significant.”
Certainly on the very limited evidence we have seen so far it all points to the home side in the 4pm kick off.
Man City looked very polished in their 3-0 win over West Brom whereas Chelsea could only draw with Swansea. Even before the opening games of the season Chelsea were not impressing in their usual way and of course lost the Community Shield against arch rivals Arsenal.
For Man City, Yaya Toure is fit despite being substituted at West Brom because of a slight groin problem. Gael Clichy may return following an ankle injury, but Fabian Delph and Fernando are both ruled out.
Chelsea’s goalkeeper Thibaut Courtois is serving a one-match ban and will be replaced by Asmir Begovic. Midfielder Oscar is doubtful after suffering a minor injury.
