Chelsea - Fulham betting tips and odds

This is a fairly one-sided matchup in the hosts’ favour. While there may be a tiny chance of a draw or even an upset, we wouldn’t count on it. Chelsea winning is by far the most likely outcome.

If betting odds are anything to go on – and they are - Fulham will likely get overrun by their opponents with little hope of winning. Considering how one-sided this matchup is, they may want to cut their losses and focus their energy elsewhere.

The previous 0:1 victory we saw from The Blues may not have been as decisive as was expected, but it netted them 3 points either way. An early advantage against West Ham United led them straight into an away win.

Fulham’s previous away game versus Arsenal was fairly uneventful, which isn’t necessarily bad for them. Considering their victory was priced at odds of 1.89 with most top bookmakers online, things were expected to go much worse for them.

The previous two matches Chelsea played in all ended with fewer than 2 goals at the final whistle. That doesn’t make for exciting football, but may be useful information if you’re planning a Goals Scored bet.

With 6 goals in Fulham’s net over their three most recent home games, online bookmakers are not giving them great chances of ending this game one with a clean sheet.

With the Premier League season winding down, The Blues’s qualification to the Champions League seems all but sure. They’re $19 points behind the leading spot, however, and their odds of taking home another three points after Saturday seem quite decent.

The Cottagers are currently in the relegation zone and going into a difficult match this Saturday. Considering we’re already at round 34, it doesn’t seem like we’ll be seeing them in the Premier League next year.

The two teams already met this season in the Premier League, with Chelsea taking the victory. It’s understandable why most bookies consider them the favourites, though the advantage is not overwhelming.

This will no doubt be an exciting match because both squads will be able to come out in full force. No players have been sidelined due to injury or suspension, and this goes for both sides.

Going for a -1.5 Handicap on the favourite’s score is the best way to get some value out of this match. You’ll eliminate the possibility of a draw, for one. More importantly, this way you might actually get a decent payout for backing the stronger team.
