Man United v Chelsea

Jose Mourinho will have been eyeing this match for a while. he is not a man who forgets quickly, and he is sure to be targetting this as a key match - if only to break his old club's title expectations.

Whether he can manage that, I don't believe we are in any position to judge better than the overall market, but where we could find an angle is in the corners betting.

Overall, in the Premier League, we are seeing an average of 10.3 corners per match awarded. Chelsea and Man United avaerage a good bit below that at 9.89 accumulated. Mostly of course because other teams are not allowed to dominate.

In this one. both midfields are likely to cancel each other out, with both managers opting to floor the centre of the park, and promote a patient, passing approach.

Thats bad news for corners backers generally, and we reckon the 11/10 on Under 9.5 Corners is the bet to have here.

It's not the sexiest bet, but hopefully its a profitable one.

Profit - 1.1unit
