Bournemouth v Chelsea

Let’s start off our Jan 30 Premier League betting tips with Bournemouth v Chelsea. We return to Premier League action in midweek following the weekend’s FA Cup action and Tuesday begins another hectic period for followers of the top-flight of English football with two rounds of matches squeezed into just six days. We concentrate on Wednesday night and one of the standout ties of note goes at Dean Court where midtable Bournemouth take on Champions League-chasing Chelsea in a fixture that should be more competitive than the pre-match betting odds would have you believe.

The Cherries bring a record of nine wins, three draws and 11 defeats from their campaign so far and have won only one of their last five. The spare in that run did come last time out, however, when beating West Ham United at this very venue on 19 January. They upset the opinions of many when blasting their way to an impressive 2-0 success. Wilson broke the deadlock on 53 minutes, following a first-half stalemate, before King made sure of the points when doubling that advantage in stoppage-time at the end of the contest. Boss Eddie Howe called it a reward for his players who kept their mindset right during a difficult run of results.

Blues Must Bounce Back

Chelsea are on track to achieve their pre-season goal and land a top-four finish; however, the London club are making hard work of it along the way and travel to Dean Court having won just one of their last three games – not the kind of form that’s going to scare off the likes of Arsenal and Man United who are waiting in the wings, only too happy to pounce on any mistakes. If results continue to go as they are it would be no surprise to see Ole drive his Man Utd team into the top-four and cap what has been a remarkable half-season for the former striker. Going into the week, Chelsea is just three points better than United and The Gunners.

Sarri’s men suffered a disappointing goalless draw with lowly Southampton at Stamford Bridge, before beating Newcastle at the same venue to collect four points when six was expected. They then fell to a surprise 2-0 defeat across the city when going down to Arsenal at the Emirates in a match the hosts simply had to win to keep their dreams alive. They did just that, thanks to goals from Lacazette and Koscielny, the damage done in the first half. Sarri was an angry and frustrated manager at full-time and let the press know all about it. He’ll demand an instant reaction from his team as they look to make a quick-fire return to winning ways.

Traders Trust the Away Day

A home team coming in on the back of a morale-boosting win, against an opponent who lost last time out suggests this will be tight; however, bookmakers really don’t see it that way and look comfortable supporting the visitors. Punters happy to follow that thinking can get their cash on the away win at 4/6, a price available with most firms, including Unibet. We expect that to prove a popular addition to midweek footie accumulators and advise adding it to your accas. The draw trades 3/1 at Bet365, home cheer as big as 9/2 in places.

Only one team has scored in each of Bournemouth’s last two games and only one found the net in Chelsea’s last league start, so we’re expecting another tight outing. Back no in the both teams to score market and you’ll land 23/20 when betting with Ladbrokes. That makes more sense than taking yes with the same firm at 4/6.

Our Tip: No BTTS – 23/20 at Ladbrokes
