Chelsea and Manchester United will battle it out at Wembley on Saturday evening and we’ve asked our Bwin blog editors for their expert FA Cup final betting tips.
Bwin is offering odds on a huge range of markets ahead of this weekend’s clash and here’s three contrasting predictions on how to cash in on the prices available.
Tony Kelshaw – Alexis Sanchez to score in normal time @ 9/4
The Chile star has made a patchy start to his career with United but still showed he can be the man for the big occasion when helping set up all his side’s goals in a 3-2 win at Manchester City and then hitting the target himself in the FA Cup semi-final triumph over Tottenham. Sanchez struck for Arsenal in both the semi and the final of this competition last season and netted at each of those stages in 2015, so back him to continue his love affair with Wembley.
Andrew McDermott – Draw after 90 minutes @ 21/10
United may have finished 11 points above Chelsea this season but I’m not convinced there’s much to choose between these two teams. The home team has won each of the last five meetings and this looks set to be a cagey affair. Chelsea’s inconsistency has been puzzling but on their day they can certainly cause problems for United, who have managed just one goal in their last three games, so I think extra-time is on the cards at Wembley.
Stuart Walker – Chelsea to win and under 2.5 combined goals @ 4/1
Goals have historically been in short supply in recent meetings between these two teams, with three or more scored just three times in 13 encounters. With Antonio Conte expected to leave this summer, he will be desperate to lift the trophy and I am backing him to do just that after a tight tussle.
