Destiny Dictates Chelsea Set For Wembley
It has started to look almost inevitable of late that the first Wembley FA Cup final since the ludicrously expensive refurbishment of the old stadium would feature Manchester United and Chelsea.
Both clubs go into their respective games on the back of midweek Champions League action, although the fact that both were victorious should help negate the tired legs. The Red Devils are no value against Watford, but Chelsea are still just about worth backing against Blackburn Rovers.
Other than the injured Arjen Robben, Chelsea boss has a near full-strength squad to select from and that strength in depth should enable him to make a change or two without losing any competitiveness. Blackburn are never a team that us likely to surrender tamely but, without Robbie Savage and Steven Reid in midfield, they could find themselves over-run.
The bet here could be Chelsea at -0.5, -1 on the Asian Handicap at 3-4 with Premierbet. That would need a two-goal winning margin to ensure a full win, but even a one-goal winning margin would mean that you win half your stake multiplied by the price, with half your stake being returned.
