Paddy Power Special – 7/2 on City to win or 8/1 on Chelsea to Win

With just over a couple of hours to go before City and Chelsea go head-to-head at the Etihad, Paddy Power has come up with something a little different for those yet to register an account. Our bookmaker friends are tempting us with an offer of either 7/2 for City to grab a win or 8/1 for Chelsea to emerge victorious and end their hosts’ 100% home record:

If you’ve already got an account with Paddy, you can still benefit from a Money Back Special on offer at the Etihad tonight. Paddy are offering refunds on all losing First Goalscorer, Last Goalscorer, Correct Score and Scorecast bets should Samuel Eto’o score anytime.

To clarify, the City and Chelsea specials are limited to a £10 stake, are open to new Paddy Power customers only and subject to the terms and conditions specified. New customers can only opt for one of the two offers.

Finally, of course, we should state that all these offers are only available to those aged 18 and over and are subject to Paddy Power’s terms and conditions. Also, if you’re going to bet, always gamble responsibly.

Why does Maureen always get so lucky?

I mean, city could still batter Chavs tonight, but he won't get a getter opportunity to beat City with their 2 best players out (Fern and Kun)

Please destroy that smug idiot and make every neutral happy Pellers 🙂

        No...YOURS was a cool story bro. Honestly. Such a riveting tale, I honestly copied and pasted it to Word, saved it on my hard drive, backed it up on a USB stick, drove to the bank, put the USB stick in the safe deposit box, and will leave it there until my kids turn about 12 (when they can actually state their age, and ask what it is I'm showing them), when I will pick it up, put it in an old USB drive reader and relay this cool story to them and tell them, "kids, this is what a cool story should look and sound like...not like the stories your generation tells."

Good move this starting Ramires in this role. I think he is gonna do a marking job on Silva. Make him run the other way

Matic + Luiz should be a better bet than Yaya + Demi. Willian and Hazard have to reduce the space between Eto'o and the midfield. This is where Ramires and his 20 lungs comes in.

I think tactically, its a very astute move by Jose

  Started pretty much as I expected him to, I reckoned Matic would come in, the big question for me was whether he would play Luiz or Lampard in CM (Lampard seems to have played in a lot of these bus parking games both in the league and in Europe over the years) and he's gone for Luiz. Three defensively minded mids - can he lock it down.

      That's probably how he's trained them... but he could try to attack City at the start before they get into a rhythm. They often take a while to break down teams, often at halftime it doesn't look great.

Bets placed on Yaya to score anytime. Also Yaya to score last (he'll either go up the pitch if City are behind or get a penalty) and final result of 1-1 - both bets are refunded by paddy power if Eto'o scores.

  If you score first City are fecked imo. Remember Mourinho said something like he will try to attack for the first 10-20 mins? I can see an attacking start from Chelsea before City get into a rhythm in that period. Set piece bombardment quite possibly, City are weak defending set pieces.
