Chelsea vs Man United Prediction & Odds

  • Chelsea is predicted to be a -1.5-goal home favorite against Man United.
  • Chelsea has won eight of its last nine EPL home matches following a league loss.
  • My Chelsea vs. Man United prediction is to use Chelsea in a moneyline parlay.

Two teams off bad losses meet on Friday at Stamford Bridge with Chelsea hosting Manchester United.ย 

Chelsea suffered a 2-0 defeat at Newcastle on Matchday 36, ending a three-game winning streak. In good news, Chelsea won eight of its last nine at home off a loss.ย 

Manchester United sustained a 2-0 home defeat against West Ham United on Sunday. That extended Unitedโ€™s winless run in the Premier League to seven matches.ย 

Check out the Premier League odds and my Chelsea vs. Man United prediction.ย

Man United vs Chelsea: Prediction

Based on Chelseaโ€™s strong record off a loss and Unitedโ€™s lack of motivation on Friday, my Chelsea vs Man United prediction is to use Chelsea (-285) in a moneyline parlay.ย 

Much like Aston Villa vs Tottenham, this game is meaningless for the visitors.ย 

United sit 16th in the league after its long winless run (D2-L5). Away from home, theyโ€™ve lost three of four, with the lone result coming because of an opponent red card.ย 

For United, the priority is next Wednesdayโ€™s Europa League final. Accordingly, bettors should expect a rotated lineup from manager Ruben Amorim.ย 

When these sides met last, United created next to nothing offensively. Save for a Bruno Fernandes penalty, United managed only 0.1 post-shot xG.ย 

For Chelsea, success at home has come in spades when Enzo Marescaโ€™s defense carries the weight.ย 

In 13 home matches where Chelsea allow one or fewer goals, the Blues own a 10-3-0 record, including nine straight victories.ย 

While United scored three goals in two of its previous five road matches, both successes have come against bottom-half defenses.ย 

Chelsea also rates out a slight positive regression candidate at home based on earlier performances this season.ย 

The Blues own a +16 goal differential at Stamford Bridge compared to a +17.7 expected goal differential, per fbref.com.ย 

Itโ€™s also a natural buy-low spot on the Blues off a loss at Newcastle. That loss came because of an early Chelsea red card while already down a goal.ย 

Given the weight of Fridayโ€™s match for Chelsea โ€“ a win would move it back into the Champions League places โ€“ Iโ€™ll use their moneyline in a parlay.ย 

For a parlay partner, use Aston Villa (-265) to bring the price down to -119.ย
