We’re about a quarter of the way through the new Premier League season and things are starting to take shape.
The top and bottom teams are starting to show their true colors, and although there are many twists and turns ahead, a picture is emerging. Where do Chelsea stand in all this? Are they on the upswing as they seem, or are we headed for a severe slump again to the levels we expected?
Chelsea fans tell us their betting bonus Supporting the Blues to win the title will pay some serious dividends. Most bookies consider the Blues to be outsiders at around 20/1 to lift the trophy.
But let’s say you bet now with the intention of cashing in later in the season, assuming Enzo Maresca’s side do well and reduce the odds significantly so you can cash in for a profit without breaking a sweat. Bet until May. What are the chances that Chelsea will be closer than 20/1 come the new year?
There are several factors to consider: injuries, form, fitness and a general sense that everything is coming together under Maresca and we can assume the team will continue to improve.
But most important of all is facilities, and there are some very positive signs on that front. Our season so far has been evenly split between games against the top six (whom we haven’t won yet) and games against the rest of the league (where we have a good record).
Will that juncture continue, or will Maresca find the extra gear he needs to turn narrow draws into wins against the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United?
As optimists, we really believe they can. League match schedule before the new year Watch them take on Leicester, Aston Villa, Southampton, Tottenham, Brentford, Fulham and Ipswich.
The toughest games are against Spurs (who are very up and down at the moment) and Villa who look very distracted and tired from their Champions League match.
Leicester, Southampton and Ipswich should be beatable if they maintain their early season form, while Everton, Brentford and Fulham are somewhere in the middle.
It’s certainly not impossible for us to win most of our games and perhaps even go undefeated in those games. There is no doubt that our title odds will decrease tremendously and if you support us you will have a great opportunity to profit.
