Chelsea v Liverpool Premier League Betting Preview 20/09/2020
The Premier League continues into its 2nd week for most teams, and the season has already provided some great excitement and entertaining matches. This weekend, the main highlight of the fixture list will see Liverpool head to Stamford Bridge to take on Chelsea. The 4.30 pm kick-off on Sunday, 20th September promises to be an intriguing match and, on paper, a highly entertaining match-up.
As we all know, Liverpool is now defending their title after winning last season’s Premier League. Chelsea, on the other hand, is rebuilding after a transfer ban with hopes of reaching those heady heights again and has invested heavily in the squad during the summer. With this being the showcase match of the weekend, we decided to provide a Chelsea v Liverpool betting preview with the hope of finding some betting tips that will not only win but offer some great betting value as well.
The first betting market we’re going to look at is the straight, match winner betting market, and the odds certainly look interesting. Liverpool are favourites to win with many bookies offering odds of just a little better than Evens; however, VBet are currently offering the best odds of 17/14 for the Liverpool win, and this is our first bet. If you fancy a Chelsea win, then Bet365 is the place to head as they are offering 9/4 for the home win, whilst VBet is coming up top price again for the draw with odds of 54/19.
Our 2nd bet tip for this match is on the ‘both teams to score’ market. Interestingly, both clubs have the same record on this: each team’s last 4 games have featured both teams scoring. As you can probably guess, the odds on both teams scoring aren’t very good. Betway are offering the best odds currently at 11/20, which is too short for us to recommend betting on, but it does lead to another bet. Since we have already decided to bet on Liverpool to win, it makes sense to combine the 2 bets. If you bet on Liverpool to win and the Both Teams to Score market, you will see the best odds with Bet365 and Betfred, currently offering 11/4.
Our final bet of the day isn’t actually a bet that is on any betting slips at the moment, and the only way you will get this bet on is by taking advantage of various bookmakers ‘request-a-bet feature. Hope one of the bookies will offer you some odds. Mo Salah certainly hit the ground running in the first game of the season by scoring 3 goals in the 4-3 win against Leeds United. We expect another big game from Salah, so we will advise trying to get a combined bet on Salah scoring a goal anytime in the game and also getting an assist anytime. It is a bit unusual, but we have high hopes of winning.
We aren’t going to go mad and just offer you selected bets for the sake of it; these betting tips are ones we have carefully selected with the goal of obviously winning, while also bringing long-term betting value and, with that, profit. We have found you the best odds at the time of writing this betting preview, but please remember this can change at any time. Furthermore, we also suggest you have a look at our homepage for the best bookies’ free bets to help you get even more betting value, but please, always gamble responsibly.
