FA Cup

Chelsea is currently in good form, as evidenced by their victory over Newcastle in the last Premier League match. As for Leicester, the team has recently dropped quite a few points, so what seemed like an obvious victory in the Championship is now in question.

Chelsea

Chelsea achieves the greatest success in cup tournaments throughout the season. Let’s remind that the “aristocrats” reached the final of the League Cup, where they lost to “Liverpool.” In the FA Cup, the Londoners have advanced to the quarterfinals and have good chances to continue their fight. At the start of the tournament, Mauricio Pochettino’s team confidently defeated “Preston” (4-0). Then, they managed to break the resistance of “Aston Villa” only in the second game (3-1). In the round of 16, “Chelsea” played against “Leeds” and snatched victory in the final moments (3-2). In the Premier League, the “pensioners” occupy a modest 11th place after 27 rounds. Today, due to injuries, defenders Levi Colwill, Beno?t Badiashile, Reece James, and Ben Chilwell, as well as forward Christopher Nkunku, will not play.

Prediction

Throughout the season, it's noticeable that "Chelsea" is focusing on cup tournaments, as they are not achieving much success in the Premier League. At their home ground, the "aristocrats" have often secured results in the Cup, and today they are capable of confidently defeating "Leicester," who are currently in decline and more concerned with the promotion battle. Our prediction is a win for "Chelsea" with an Asian handicap (-1) at odds of 1.70. In the last three matches, "Chelsea" has scored at least four goals in all competitions. "Leicester" also plays an open style of football. We anticipate an exciting match with plenty of goals. Our second bet is a total of over three goals at odds of 1.83.
