Chelsea vs Stoke City BETTING TIPS / 31.12.2016

Second “Boxing Day” match between Chelsea and Stoke City.
Bet on “Win Chelsea Asian Handicap -1.5” (also available in Interwetten as European Handicap -1).

Chelsea have comfortably won the first game of the already legendary “Boxing Day”. He won 3-0 at Bournemouth in a game that, although he did not dominate in possession (something strange), was dominating the occasions and is that Conte and his team gave us a great offensive game. This leaves him in the same position he was before the day, leading the Premier with a virtual lead of 9 points (as Liverpool dispute their match against Stoke City tomorrow, which will be Chelsea’s rival) . With this already adds 8 victories as a local and only 1 draw. 6 of the 8 victories were a minimum handicap -1,5, being red against Tottenham (2-1 and West Ham 2-1 at the start of the season).

Stoke City, with a game less than Bournemouth (which tomorrow will play against Liverpool), is with 21 points, like the latter, in 13th place. Away from home adds 9 points with 2V-3E-3D. Of these 8 matches he has played, only 2 were against rivals “top” of the Premier. He played against Arsenal in a game that ended 3-1 and against Manchester United in a match that ended 1-1 (United dominated but as in many of his matches he lacked the necessary football in the last third of the field as To be able to make a difference and score those goals needed for the victory). That is to say, the majority of its rivals have been of the area low-average of the table and before the most imposing rivals suffered enough.

Let’s go to Stake 2.5. Chelsea are, once again, clear favorite to win a home game. As a handicap in his favor, it should be noted that this will be Chelsea’s second home game, while he will be the second away from Stoke City. Although today’s distances are often the least (Stoke-on-Trent is close to Liverpool but far from London), there are two trips that must be taken, having a day less rest than Chelsea players Already played their Matchday, while Stoke City, as I said a couple of times previously, will play tomorrow – 27th – against Liverpool).

Not only does it accompany the confidence of Chelsea in Conte, but also the schedule is unfavorable for Stoke and favorable for Chelsea (not only for this day, but the next, while most teams will play it on day 2 Some 1, others 3) Chelsea will play against Tottenham on day 4, allowing them to be cooler and be able to focus on winning this game forcefully.
