Chelsea - Manchester United: betting tip and bets with odds of 2.85

In the last ten face-to-face matches in the Premier League, Chelsea has beaten Manchester United only once, but nevertheless it receives the status of a clear favorite from the bookmakers in the game on May 16. This balance of power is explained by the motivation factor and the fact that the Red Devils have the Europa League final ahead of them. Will the aristocrats be able to confidently deal with an opponent who is not the most convenient? - the answer is in our betting tip. Roman Pavlyuchenko, the star expert of the site, also shares his bet on the game

Command Analysis

Chelsea

Current form
Chelsea was on a winning streak of five matches, taking into account all tournaments, but in the last round in the Premier League, the series of successful matches was interrupted. The Aristocrats faced Newcastle on the road and lost 0:2. From the very beginning, the game did not go as the coaching staff expected. Tonali scored in the second minute, and Jackson was sent off in the 35th. It is clear that it was impossible to save the game under such circumstances. Let's just note that the Londoners had more possession of the ball than their opponent (55%), but they scored only three shots on goal. The Magpies scored well, and scored the second goal in the end.
The defeat by Newcastle led to Chelsea equaling the points scored by Aston Villa. Enzo Mareschi's team is in fifth place, which gives them the right to play in the Champions League next season, but they are coming off Birmingham only in terms of additional indicators. The standings make it almost impossible to make mistakes in the remaining two rounds, where, in addition to Manchester United, they still have to play away from Nottingham Forest.
It's important for Chelsea to get three points here and now. The home-field factor and the fact that the opponent does not have much motivation in the Premier League play into the hands of the Londoners. At Stamford Bridge in the Premier League, they have won 11 of their 18 matches since the start of the season.
Disqualifications and injuries
Jackson will serve a suspension for being sent off in the game against Newcastle. Anselmino, Kelliman, U. Fofana, D. Fofana will not play today due to injuries. Sancho will not be able to help the team under the terms of the lease. The entry of Giu and Nkunku into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In four of the last five matches, Chelsea have won in the opening 45 minutes.
- In three of the previous five matches of the Londoners, there was no exchange of goals scored.
- In seven of Chelsea's last nine Premier League matches, no more than three goals have been scored.
- Chelsea have not lost at home in the Premier League in their last nine matches (seven wins and two draws)
Approximate composition: Sanchez –Caicedo, Colville, Chalobah, Cucurella–Fernandez, Lavia–Madueke, Palmer, George – None.

Manchester United

Current form
The main event for Manchester United is reaching the Europa League final. The Mankunians, surprisingly, easily passed Athletic in the semifinals. A 3-0 victory was recorded on the road, and 4:1 at home. They have a decisive battle in Bilbao with Tottenham next week. It is clear that the bet is on this particular match. However, it is worth noting that Ruben Amorim is not one of those specialists who, in such cases, put up a completely reserve squad for a particularly meaningless championship match. You could see more than once during the season how he used many of the main players.
In the last six rounds in the Premier League, the Red Devils have not won a single victory. At the same time, only the duel against Newcastle (1-4) was actually a complete failure. Players are fully attuned to crucial matches against top opponents, you can recall the 0-0 with Manchester City in the derby.
Manchester United played their last league game against West Ham and lost 0-2. The score does not fully reflect what was happening on the field. The Mancunians created a sufficient number of chances, played at least one ball, scored five shots on target, but the realization failed, and the goalkeeper of the Londoners was on top that evening. In the standings, by the start of the 37th round, Amorim's team is in 16th place with 39 points in the asset.
Disqualifications and injuries
Martinez, Haven, Dalot, Zirkzee, de Ligt and Collyer will not play due to injuries. Yoro's entry into the field is questionable.
Interesting betting trends
- In three consecutive matches, Manchester United lost in the first half.
- In seven of the nine previous matches of the Mancunians in the Premier League, more than three goals were not scored.
- Manchester United have not hit an opponent's goal more than once in six of their previous seven league matches.
- In three of the last four matches, Manchester United players have received fewer yellow cards than their opponents.
Approximate line–up: Bayindir – Shaw, Maguire, Mazraoui - Diallo, Ugarte, Fernandes, Dorgu Mainu, Mount Hoylund.

1.42Tip and bets
We see a strong bias in favor of the owners in the line of bookmakers. It is clear that Chelsea is extremely motivated, as they are fighting for a place in the Champions League. Plus, the Londoners will hold the Conference League finals only on May 28. However, Manchester United, under Amorim's leadership, does not play as a reserve team in the championship, the team looks good in the game, although the results are weak. Mankunians are fighting to the maximum against top opponents in the Premier League. They know how to play against Chelsea, as they have suffered only one defeat in the last ten face-to-face matches in the Premier League, and that was with a one-goal difference. We believe that the guests will be able to avoid a major defeat today.
Our betting tip is that Manchester United will win with an Asian handicap (+1.5) for a coefficient of 1.73
Bet on the total
When choosing bets on a match, one cannot ignore the trend of exchanging goals scored in face-to-face meetings. Over the course of seven face-to-face matches in a row, Chelsea and Manchester United invariably hit each other's goal. We do not see any serious prerequisites for the fact that this series will be interrupted in London today.
The second bet is that both will score with a coefficient of 1.69
A bet on the exact difference in the bill
There is no noticeable difference between the opponents in terms of the level of the squad and in the class as a whole. We do not think that one of the teams will win today with a difference of more than one goal.
The betting tip is a victory for one of the teams with a one–goal advantage with a coefficient of 2.85
