Norwich vs Chelsea Prediction & Betting Tips - FA Cup
by Steve Ashfield | in FA Cup Predictions
Chelsea were unlucky not to win at Arsenal in midweek but the players who took part in that game won't be the ones that travel to Carrow Road to take on Championship side Norwich City. It'll be squad rotation side again but it's clear that the squad Chelsea have is far better than that of their opponents. Playing the reserves hasn't hurt Chelsea in the Carabao Cup in which they play Arsenal in the last four, a few days after this match. They are unbeaten in their last seven league and cup games and you have to go back to 2008 when they last lost in this competition to a side outside of the Premier League. It was Barnsley who caused that big shock and it's unlikely that will be repeated in this game. Norwich City are currently 13th in the Championship, nine points adrift of the play-offs and ten above the relegation zone. They have a few financial problems so a big turn out for this game will be most welcome. Current form has seen them unbeaten in their last three league games but two of those were against sides in the relegation zone. At home they have only won two of their last ten home league games all against sides in the bottom half of the table. Back Chelsea to get an away win and progress to the fourth round.
