Champions League Final – Manchester
United Vs Chelsea
The
Champions League Final between English
Premier League clubs Manchester United
and Chelsea promises to be a classic
Reds v Blues final in Moscow after both
sides triumphed over two legs in their
champions league semi finals.
Champions League Final betting markets
have installed Manchester United a short
priced favourite to defeat their London
counterparts in Moscow. The value sports
bet is certainly with Chelsea here after
their 2-1 win at Stamford Bridge
courtesy of two goals by German captain
Michael Ballack who smacked home a
penalty in the closing minutes.
Their will certainly be some
star-studded players on the park with
newly crowned EPL player of the year
award winner Cristiano Ronaldo sure to
be keen to impress on his biggest stage.
This game does give people the chance to
enjoy some novelty sport bets with
plenty of likely first goalscorers
playing. No doubt their will be plenty
of takers for the likes of Ronaldo, Paul
Scholes and Wayne Rooney for Manchester
United while Didier Drogba, Ballack and
Frank Lampard are the most likely to
crash one against the back of the net
for the Blues.
In a two horse race such as this I’m
going to go with the Blues who have been
the best team in England in the second
half of the season since the arrival of
Avram Grant. They certainly haven’t
missed the self proclaimed “Chosen One”.
Head to head Manchester Utd v Chelsea -
Fast Facts:
• Manchester United and Chelsea have met
six times in the Premier League in the
last three years with both teams
recording 2 wins and 2 draws.
• The sides also met in the FA Charity
Shield where the draw bet was the winner
with Manchester United defeating Chelsea
3-0 on penalties after the scores
finished 1-1 after 90 minutes.
• The sides also met in the FA Cup final
at Wembley two seasons ago with the draw
again being the winning sports bet
before Chelsea took the honors with a
goal in extra time to Didier Drogba.
Chelsea has had the wood on the Red
Devils and despite the betting odds
suggesting a Manchester United victory
in Moscow, I’m expecting my champions
league sports bet on Chelsea to be a
winning bet. |
