Chelsea - Wolverhampton Wanderers betting tips and odds

With the odds set at 1.42 for a home win, Chelsea winning is clearly the most likely outcome in this matchup. Bigger upsets have happened, of course, but we wouldn’t expect anything but a decisive home win.

Wolverhampton Wanderers stand next to no chance at beating the hosts in this match. For instance, most bookies online offer odds of 9.60 for an away win, indicating a very small chance of success.

The Blues entered their previous league bout as the favourites but failed to gain the upper hand for more than half the match. They were playing away, though, and managed to finally pull ahead later in the game, ultimately recording a narrow but satisfying 1:2 victory.

The Wanderers’s defeat in the previous round was somewhat expected, given the 4.30 odds top online bookies offered for their away win. The favourites, West Ham United, took the lead early and dominated the game, ultimately winning 2:0.

Chelsea have displayed rather inconsistent defensive play in their previous outings. Specifically, their previous 3 away games have been marked by more than 5 conceded goals. They may be at home this time, but such records usually highlight deeper issues than a home-field disadvantage.

The hosts are looking to move into one of the Champions League qualifying spots. There’s plenty of time to work towards their goal, but they should be able to walk away with another 3 points after this match.

With just 6 points to their name in round 10, The Wanderers can’t be too happy with how they’ve performed so far. To make matters worse, they’re entering this bout as underdogs, so moving up the table any time soon would be difficult.

Records show that the previous game between Chelsea and The Wanderers was a draw. That said, the match was played last season. Most sportsbook price a home win at 1.42 – as favourites, they’ll surely want a more conclusive result.

Fortunately, both teams will be able to give their all this Saturday. Neither squad has been affected by injuries or suspensions, allowing the coaches to work with all the tools at their disposal.

If you’re feeling confident, a Draw/Home wager in the Half Time/Full Time market is the way to go. It’s a fairly risky move, but likely the best way to get some value out of the match this Saturday.
