Both of these teams have not had the kind of Premier League season that their fans would have been hoping for, but it is slightly better to be a Manchester United fan at present as they are still somewhat in the hunt for a Champions League spot. Chelsea, on the other hand, after having spent an awful lot of money, are probably looking at a Europa Conference League spot at the very best. There was a time when this would have been a top-four clash, but oh how the mighty have fallen. So, who will pick up the three points that are on offer here? Well, check out this prediction and all will be revealed to you, my friend.
🏆 Chelsea vs Manchester United: Who Will Win?
The heat has turned up on Maurizio Pochettino as it has been revealed that several Chelsea players have asked the board to sack him. He has some top-quality youngsters at his disposal, but he just cannot seem to get the best out of them as was highlighted in their 2-2 draw against Burnley at the weekend. Vincent Kompany's team had a man down from the 40th minute onward, yet Chelsea still could not pick up all three points. To be 19 points adrift of 4th, having spent all of that money, is pretty shameful, to be honest.
Manchester United have also spent a lot of money in recent seasons, but at least they are doing slightly better. They will be hoping that the Premier League gets an extra spot in next year's Champions League as it is hard to see them finishing in 4th place now. However, even though they are sitting in 6th place, they have still been playing some of the most uninspiring football this season. They were very poor against Brentford on Saturday, but somehow managed to earn a positive result - the story of their campaign.
Back in the day, this would have been a match that you would not want to miss. However, nowadays, it has all of the potential to be a match with very little entertainment value. It would not surprise me if this game finished in a boring 0-0 draw, but I am going to be a little bit optimistic and opt for a 1-1 scoreline.
My Prediction: 🏆Chelsea 1 Manchester United 1⚽
💯 Chelsea vs Manchester United Match Odds
When Chelsea and Manchester United met on the 6th of December last year, the Red Devils came away with all three points courtesy of a 2-1 victory. Scott McTominay opened the scoring in the 19th minute before Cole Palmer equalised on the stroke of half-time. Then, in the 69th minute, McTominay popped up again to score the winning goal. United dominated the match that day and deserved the three points, but I do not see the same thing happening this time around.
So what odds are my favourite new UK betting sites and established ones currently offering for the upcoming clash between Chelsea and United? Well, check out the tables that follow to find out all that you need to know. The odds that you will find in these tables are for the match winner, both teams to score, and over/under 2.5 goals. These are the three most popular football betting markets.
🏅 Chelsea vs Manchester United: Match Winner Odds
When you look at the match winner odds for this Chelsea vs Manchester United match, you will see that the bookies believe that the home team have the best chance of walking away with the three points. However, the odds for a Chelsea win are high enough to suggest to us that the bookies are not certain of this outcome, and would not be surprised if it finished in a draw or a Manchester United win.
Team | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Chelsea | 1.95 | 1.95 | 2.05 | 1.93 | 1.94 |
Draw | 3.85 | 3.85 | 4.00 | 4.00 | 4.00 |
Manchester United | 3.15 | 3.15 | 3.30 | 3.45 | 3.45 |
Chelsea vs Manchester United: Both Teams To Score Odds
While the bookies are not entirely certain as to which way the result of this match will swing, one thing that they are pretty confident about is that both teams will find the back of the net. Both teams might be struggling for points this season, but they have not found it hard to score in their previous ten matches.
I will discuss this in more detail in the following section of this betting guide. For now, just have a gander at the both teams to score odds below:
Team | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Yes | 1.33 | 1.33 | 1.35 | 1.36 | 1.42 |
No | 2.97 | 2.97 | 2.95 | 2.75 | 2.80 |
Chelsea vs Manchester United: Over/Under 2.5 Goals Odds
When it comes to the over/under 2.5 goals market, the bookies are pretty sure that there will be three goals scored in the match, while they also favour there to be under 3.5 goals. Since they think that both teams will score and that Chelsea have the greater chance of winning this match, the odds that are on offer tell us that they believe that the most likely outcome is that Chelsea will win the match 2-1.
If this is a market that you like to dabble in, then you can check out the over/under 2.5 goals odds in the following table:
Team | |||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Over 2.5 | 1.35 | 1.35 | 1.38 | 1.37 | 1.17 |
Under 2.5 | 2.85 | 2.85 | 2.90 | 2.80 | 2.80 |
✔️ Chelsea vs Manchester United - Betting Tips
Before you bet on a football match or some other sports event, you can do yourself a huge solid by reading what experienced tipsters are thinking about a particular game. You obviously do not need to agree with everything that they say, but you might just come across that little nugget that helps you place a winning bet. Whether you are betting with your own money or using some free bets that you have acquired, always remember to gamble responsibly.
Below I have given you four betting tips for this clash between Chelsea and Manchester United.
- Tip 1: Bet on a draw: Both of these teams are probably looking forward to the end of the season as they have both underachieved when you consider the amount that they have spent recently. Five of the previous seven matches between these teams have ended in a draw, and current form suggests that another draw is on the cards. If you want to back a draw in this match, then 10BET Sport are offering odds of 4.00.
- Tip 2: Bet on both teams to score: I do not expect this game to be full of excitement, but I do still think that both teams will manage to find the back of the net. Chelsea are averaging 2.00 goals over their last ten rounds of matches, while Manchester United are averaging 1.90 goals per match. If you want to back both teams to score, then BetUK Sports are offering odds of 1.42.
- Tip 3: Bet on Cole Palmer to score: Chelsea have had a very average season, but one player who can hold their head up high is Cole Palmer as he has been their best player by a country mile. This season he has scored 18 goals in 38 appearances, so I reckon there is a good chance of him scoring against United - he is also their penalty-taker. If you want to put money on Palmer to score, then LeoVegas have odds of 2.50 for him to score anytime.
- Tip 4: Bet on a 1-1 draw: Recent matches between these two teams have been pretty drab affairs, with draws being a pretty frequent occurrence. For me, the most likely outcome in this match is a 1-1 stalemate and those who think the same can find odds of 7.90 at Betiton Sport.
1️⃣Chelsea Update
Chelsea are sitting in 12th place in the table, having picked up just 11 wins all season. The good news for those of a blue persuasion is that, with 40 points on the board, they should avoid relegation. Money well spent, if you ask me. They are five points adrift of 7th place and eight points off 6th, so the best they can probably hope for this season is a spot in the Europa Conference League.
They have actually found a little bit of form over the last ten rounds of matches as only four other teams have picked up more points than them in this time. They have five wins, three draws, and two defeats to their name, and their five previous EPL results can be seen below:

Pochettino has one of the most extensive injury lists in the league at the moment as he has no fewer than 11 players in the treatment room. You can see their absent players in the following table:

2️⃣Manchester United Update
Manchester United fans have been moaning about their poor season for some time now, but surprisingly they are still in with a shout of a Champions League spot. They will need everything to go their way between now and the end of the season, but it is remarkable that they are still in with a shout after the poor performances that they have consistently put in this season.
When it comes to their form over the previous ten rounds of matches, they are sitting in 7th place with 17 points from the 30 points that have been on offer. You can find out their previous five EPL results in the table below:
