Valencia v Chelsea Preview And Betting Tips – Champions League Matchday 5


  



 


 TREBLE: LIVERPOOL, SLAVIA AND BARCELONA ALL TO WIN MAX BET £10


 


Recent Form


It’s crunch time in Group H as all of Ajax, Chelsea and Valencia are tied on seven points apiece with just two games remaining, as the winner of this will have one foot in the last 16.


Valencia will provide a stern test for the Blues as they remain unbeaten at home in the league this year, though it should be mentioned that run includes four draws from seven outings, while the wins have come against Mallorca, Alaves and Granada, all of whom sit outside the top seven in La Liga and aren’t quite of Chelsea’s calibre.


Lampard’s charges have a notoriously strong record on the road under the tutelage of their former midfielder, winning seven on the bounce before going down in a spirited 2-1 defeat to Man City at the weekend which doesn’t exactly set the alarm bells ringing.


Chelsea To Win


Since the opening day, Frank Lampard’s men have only managed to shutout Ajax away from Stamford Bridge, scoring in each of their eight trips.


Indeed, they haven’t exactly been short on chances on their return to Europe’s top competition as only Bayern and Real Madrid have had more shots per game than their 18, with Valencia conceding a whopping 19.3 so far (fourth most in the competition) and the likes of Tammy Abraham and Christian Pulisic who’ve been heavily amongst the goals in recent times, will look to capitalise.


That’s especially the case seeing as Los Che have kept just one clean sheet from their last 10 at all venues, including one of their last seven at Mestalla, leaking an average of 1.4 goals per game across those recent home fixtures.


Couple that, with the fact that Chelsea have won seven of their eight trips this term, netting a remarkable 22 times, they look the value option to take the full three points in this one.


Goal Scored in Minutes 76-90


Valencia do however have a knack for scoring late goals, plundering nine times in the final 16 minutes from as many recent games, while they’ve also conceded four times over that period in those dying minutes.


Chelsea, meanwhile, have witnessed 16 goals in as many games coming after the 74th minute from either side across all competitions, so at a little under evens, the late goal in such a crucial match seems a good bet.


Christian Pulisic To Score Anytime


Tammy Abraham has been a shining light for the London club this season as Lampard has shown his commitment to bringing youth through the ranks, though our attention is not on the academy recruits for our goalscorer.


Pulisic has been in wonderful form since his breakthrough into the first-team setup, as he’s managed four goals in his last three away games and he looked threatening again at the weekend against the Citizens, so at the prices he looks the best value to register on the scoresheet.


Chelsea to win At 23/20


Goal Scored in Minutes 76-90 At 10/11


Christian Pulisic To Score Anytime At 9/4
