Chelsea vs Southampton 26.10.2021
Chelsea booked their place in the last 16 of the EFL Cup via a 4-3 penalty shoot-out win over Aston Villa that pushed Thomas Tuchel’s men to the brink.
The reward for their progress is a round of 16 fixture against Southampton they have already defeated this season.
With that in mind, Chelsea will look to make it to the quarter-final, even in the absence of Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner. Chelsea are a good value for a win, and we are backing the blues to make a light work of the Saints.
