Hornet Handicappers

We just need Chelsea to have a fight on their hands on Saturday, even if they snatch the points. It's hard to imagine an easy ride against visitors brim full of confidence.

The lunch time kick-off sees 4th against 5th with the side priced at 9/1 higher in the table! However, I would advise the more conservative option of Watford +2 goals in the handicap market at a best price of 9/10 with StanJames.


The value in backing the visitors is there for all to see following their fantastic late win over Arsenal last weekend. That said, that result owed a great deal to luck and you have to respect the ability of Conte to dig out a result when he really needs one.

Eden Hazard was back in goalscoring form in midweek and the return of Morata is arguably more important than some others on the treatment table.

With this bet we can profit with an away victory, a draw or even Chelsea by one goal. The latter being perhaps the most likely outcome.
