The London club showed its fighting qualities in the last round. After losing the match with a score 0:1 to the leader of the championship “Manchester City”, Thomas Tuchel’s wards managed to win a strong-willed victory with a score 2:1. In general, after the appearance of the German specialist on the coaching bridge, progress in Chelsea’s game is obvious. In the FA Cup the retirees knocked out the same Manchester City in the semifinals. They made it to the Champions League final. The only failure was the match against West Brom, which the Londoners lost at home with a score of 2:5. After the success in the last round in the confrontation with the “townspeople” Tuchel’s team rose to the third line in the Premier League standings, displacing Leicester. Now on the balance sheet of the London club are 64 points, which is one point more than the “foxes”. It will not be possible to get Manchester United from Chelsea. The distance to the red devils is seven points and at the same time the pensioners played more for the match. We must say that Chelsea have often lost points in their home arena lately. So, in their five previous matches at home, in addition to being defeated by the blackbirds, the Londoners drew twice more with Manchester United (0:0) and Brighton (0:0) and they managed to beat Everton during this period (2:0) and Fulham (2:0). The 2:0 score is popular at Chelsea’s home games. This is how four of the last seven meetings of the pensioners in the Premier League home games ended. Due to injuries, defender Andreas Christensen and midfielder Mateo Kovacic will miss the match.
Meanwhile, PSG has problems. It all started last week. First, the Parisians flew out of the Champions League. PSG lost to Manchester City in the return match with a score of 0:2. On Sunday the team of Mauricio Pochettino could not beat Rennes in the most important match of Ligue 1, having only a 1:1 draw. Two rounds before the end of the championship, PSG are three points behind Lille. Looks like they get no title this year. In fact, PSG have had quite a few mediocre matches this spring. In March the star-studded Paris lost at home to Nantes, in April they lost to Lille and now they have failed to cope with Rennes. So, what is the soccer bet prediction for today?
