Best Tip: Both teams to score

Chelsea may feel positive ahead of this fixture and, funnily enough, so might Man City. The bookmakers can't split them and neither can we – there's no obvious victor in this clash. So we look to the both teams to score market, where there's far more clarity. The form stats, past head-to-head (H2H) records and bookies odds below are all pointing towards both sides scoring, and we think that's the tip to go with here.
