Chelsea-Norwich City betting preview
Chelsea finally got what their manager has been hoping for months: that the luxury to focus only on the premier league. But it could prove too late in the season. They host relegation-bound Norwich City on this Sunday. Even if they win their remaining two fixtures, they may not win the premier league crown. But what is football, or life, without a hint of optimism? If both Liverpool and Manchester City drop points, Chelsea will re-emerge as favourites.
Norwich have an unenviable relegation battle. They are playing Chelsea this week and Arsenal the next. They are 18th in the league, and they have to score at least one win in their remaining fixtures to stay alive. If the other strugglers perform well, even a single win may not be enough.
Their record against Chelsea is poor. They lost seven of the last eight matches against Chelsea. Their record at Chelsea is even poorer. The last time they won at Chelsea was in 1993.
Chelsea will hope to waltz through another win and put themselves on the path of Lady Luck. The pressure of title race could force even experienced players to make unusual mistakes. The Chelsea fans will hope that the top stars of Liverpool and Manchester City will keep producing errors in their next games.
John Terry and Oscar are likely to miss the match. All their other stars are available for selection. Gary Hooper and Robert Snodgrass lead the Canaries’ charge against the best defence in the premier league.
Chelsea-Norwich City Prediction
Chelsea are huge favourites to win the match. Even a draw would be a miracle for Norwich.
