Manchester City vs Chelsea FA prediction
Manchester City’s treble dreams for this season are over after Real Madrid kicked them out of the UEFA Champions League. Nevertheless, the Cityzens can still win a domestic double as they are top of the league and playing in this FA Cup semi-finals. Pep Guardiola has all his squad members available for selection and will be looking to bounce back from the mid-week defeat.
Chelsea are feeling buoyant with their recent performances, especially after thumping Everton 6-0 in their last match. The Blues are unbeaten in their last 12 matches across all competitions (W7 D5) and have already held Man City twice this season. The FA Cup presents the only trophy that Chelsea can win this season to make up for a poor show in the league overall.
We expect an open attacking game from two teams that have been quite entertaining whenever they meet. More attacking will bring lots of corners in the game and this is one area worth betting on. Our Manchester City vs Chelsea prediction is Over 9.5 Corners.

Our Manchester City vs Chelsea Predictions
According to the statistics and the odds of the bookmakers, we suggest the following tips:
Prediction 1: Over 9.5 Corners
Recent matches between these two teams involve end-to-end attacking moves with lots of goal-mouth action. This usually translates into lots of corners in the match. 4 out of Man City’s last 5 games all had more than 10 corners in the end. For Chelsea, all the last 5 games had 10 or more corners in total. When the two teams meet, there is likely to be lots of corners in the game as each team wants to attack and make it to the final. Our Manchester City vs Chelsea prediction is Over 9.5 Corners.

This translates to an average of 3.40 goals per game for Man City and 3.60 goals per game for Chelsea. Their two meetings this season ended with each team getting a goal. With such a high scoring rate, we expect each team to get at least one goal in this match. Hence, our second tip is Both Teams To Score.

Prediction 3: Cole Palmer to Score Anytime
Chelsea’s Cole Palmer is having the time of his lives at the moment as he racks up goals and assists in almost every game. He has now caught up with Manchester City’s Erling Halaand in the EPL top scorers’ race with 20 goals. Palmer scored 4 goals in Chelsea’s 6-0 demolition of Everton in their last game. Having been signed from Man City just this season, Palmer will have something extra to prove to his former team and there is a high chance that he will be on the scoresheet in this game. Cole Palmer to Score Anytime is our third bet.
