Best Tip: Chelsea to win

As training goes on this week and the Chelsea players prepare themselves for this game, the bookmakers are predicting a victory for them. The odds and our pre-match statistics below also point that way, as does the historical head-to-head (H2H) record we take advantage of in our predictive algorithms. The Stamford Bridge has not been an easy place to go for Morecambe in the past, and we expect more of the same come Saturday afternoon. A win / draw / win home win is our tip.
