Chelsea entertain big spenders Man City at ‘Fortress; Stamford Bridge this weekend, looking to avenge their 1-2 defeat by City at Eastlands in December. Chelsea will also want to win to maintain the gap that they have earned for themselves at the top of table, particularly in light of the Man Utd victory over West Ham in midweek, which brought them to within a point of the ‘Blues’.
Chelsea start clear favourites to win the match with odds of 4/9 offered by bet365 , while the same Bookmakers offer the draw as a 10/3 option and offer great value on a ‘City’ win of 13/2.
Chelsea, once the big spenders themselves of the Premier League, come into the game on the back of a defeat sustained in the Champions League Last 16 match against Inter Milan in midweek and will want to bounce back as quickly as possible. Meanwhile Man City also come to Stamford Bridge after being dumped out of the FA Cup by a determined Stoke City side, which has left them with only a Premier League Top Four place to aim for this season.

Despite their FA Cup exit, Man City should be pleased on two counts; firstly that the spat between manager, Roberto Mancini and Craig Bellamy appears to be over. Bellamy was back in the team the other night and netted his side’s only goal. Secondly, Mancini should be able to welcome back leading scorer, Carlos Tevez after his spell of compassionate leave of absence. Tevez scored for ‘City’ in their 2-1 win over Chelsea earlier in the season and is an 8/1 chance with Bet 365 to get the opening goal in this.
Favourite as usual to score first however is Chelsea’s Didier Drogba, who has achieved this feat several times already this year. This week he has odds of 7/2 to score the first goal, while his strike partner, Nicholas Anelka is a 4/1 chance with Frank Lampard at 11/2.
