Chelsea vs Barrow Prediction & Betting Tips - Carabao Cup
by Ian John in Carabao Cup Predictions
The Blues of Chelsea will host the Bluebirds of Barrow in what looks like a one-sided Carabao Cup Third-round match at Stamford Bridge this week. Will our prediction see us back the hot-favorite home team, or could the League Two leaders pull off what would be a stunning cup upset?
Chelsea boss Enzo Maresca will likely shuffle his team for this fixture against the Cumbrians. With plenty of Premier League fixtures coming up and the Europa Conference League starting soon, the Blues boss is likely to use the full depth of his squad over the coming weeks.
That gives a number of players, who as yet may not have had much of a chance to shine for Chelsea over the opening weeks of the season, an opportunity to do so here against their League Two opposition.
The Londoners warmed up for this game with a comfortable 3-0 win at West Ham at the weekend.
Bluebirds boss Stephen Clemence will be delighted with his team's start to the new campaign. Barrow not only reached the Third round of the Carabao Cup, beating Port Vale 3-2, and then Derby 3-2 on penalties after a 0-0 draw, but they also sat top of League Two after their weekend 2-0 win over Newport County.
However, a trip to Stamford Bridge is an incredibly difficult challenge against a Chelsea team who seem to be hitting some consistent form over the last few weeks. On paper at least, the gulf in class and quality between the two teams will be huge.
The question is, will Chelsea make it pay against their opponents on the night?

Our Chelsea vs Barrow Prediction
Our prediction for Chelsea vs. Barrow in the Carabao Cup is: Chelsea to win and Over 3.5 Goals.
Barrow may be flying high in League Two this season, but a trip to face an in-form Chelsea from the Premier League is a massive step up in class. Several of their most recent games against Premier League teams have ended in heavy defeats for the League Two side. The data suggests that this could be another good night for the home team, given Chelsea's excellent goalscoring form and squad depth.

One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
