What Trueform says for BATE Borisov vs Chelsea
Chelsea eased past BATE Borisov 3-1 in a one-sided Europa League clash at Stamford Bridge and are again expected to come out on top in the return fixture in Belarus.
However, BATE have scored in their last eight home matches in all competitions and could well register another consolation goal at Borisov Arena.
We went for the Blues to prevail and both teams to score in London and are playing up those winnings with the same bet at 39/20 for our opening BATE Borisov vs Chelsea prediction.
A Look At BATE Borisov’s Betting Odds
Aleksei Rios gave the BATE Borisov fans something to cheer about at Stamford Bridge when powering in at the far post to strike from a set-piece.
Aliaksei Baha’s side do have a physical presence when able to get players into the box for such situations.
They have netted 49 times in 27 games in their domestic league, surging 14 points clear at the summit.
Qarabag and PSV Eindhoven couldn’t keep clean sheets here in Champions League qualifiers and BATE should again play like they have nothing to lose.
It may not be enough to match far more skilful opponents, though, so 3/1 for the visitors to prevail 2-1, 3-1 or 4-1 appeals from the BATE Borisov vs Chelsea odds.
A Look At Chelsea’s Betting Odds
Chelsea enjoyed 69 per cent of the possession when these teams met in London, registering 23 attempts on goal, with 10 being on target.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek hit the headlines with a well-taken hat-trick that night and the winning margin could have been doubled but for superb saves denying Davide Zappacosta and Olivier Giroud.
The Blues have since reached the EFL Cup quarter-finals and stayed two points off the pace in the Premier League.
However, a 3-2 triumph over Derby and Sunday’s 3-1 defeat of Crystal Palace again highlighted how Maurizio Sarri’s positive approach can leave his defence exposed at times.
An away win and over 2.5 goals in the game will attract the big hitters at 9/10 and looks well worth adding to our BATE Borisov vs Chelsea betting tips.
