Chelsea v Man City Betting Tips for Today

Chelsea vs Man City Betting Tips today: The main event of the weekend sees Man City travel to Chelsea, and we have some bets that you might not normally go for.

The ‘to be shown a card’ market could be very profitable for the punters, as both teams will be desperate not to lose and players will be happy to pick up clever yellow cards to stop attacks.

David Luiz is a card magnet in the big matches and has been booked against Bayern Munich and Everton already so far this season. BetVictor offer 5/2 he gets booked which looks very nice as long as he starts. 

John Terry often struggles against top class strikers, and Sergio Aguero could be too hot to handle for the Blues’ captain. He is 3/1 to be carded on BetVictor, but it could be worth having a look around once the other bookies are priced up.

I also fancy the two defensive midfielders Fernandinho and Ramires to be booked, with both being priced up at 2/1.  With Oscar and David Silva running past them all game they are both likely to end up in the book.

As an outside bet I will be going for Oscar to pick up the first card at 20/1. He does a lot of dirty work for Chelsea and flair players tend to receive fewer leniencies than tough tacklers from referees in the early stages

Picking a Man of the Match is particularly tough in this one, as there are so many game-changing players on the pitch. However I think it will be a fairly tight match and a battling midfielder like Ramires will be a good bet at 14/1.

Of course with so many creative players on the pitch it could go wrong, but if the game ends in a draw I see no other option than Ramires. Another player that does stand out is Fernando Torres at 16/1, with the Spaniard looking sharper and the media always having a soft spot for him.
