All those Farteta, Fartdiola, Potter, Howie from Newcastle, or even ETH from Man Utd are very defensive vs similar-level teams. Conte is a bit of an enigma at times as is Klopp.
@koziol.mutant Good teams can cancel each other out and it can be nothing about being very defensive. Naturally if both teams are good at all phases, transitions etc the game is more balanced. You are just negative.
@JSOneHundred You are naive and haven't played football in your life at all! If you had, you would know that the team being offensive - that is, having the ball - always has the edge, in case it plays attack properly: fast paced but precise game, one touch football (not giving the defence time to intercept the ball or force turnover), offensive-direct game plan (instead of constantly passing back the ball to the least skilled division of your team (the defence), going down the wings if the bus is parked and giving passes back to your second wave attackers prepared to shoot from a distance (instead of centering the ball in the box), or shooting from a distance accurately/get behind the defensive line in case the bus is parked and the wings are closed down as well (instead of just passing the ball around mindlessly, a-la Guardiola style). So, the team who has the initiative, the courage, who starts from the front foot, always prevails. What do we see instead? Both teams play possession.
@Zoltan I knew you were stupid, but I didn't expect you to not know the meaning of the word "always". Atletico won the strongest domestic competition at that time (La Liga) with utterly defensive football. Inter won the strongest club competition (UCL) with utterly defensive football. Each day there are countless examples of teams winning with defensive football. The factors that come into play are so many, including luck. Man City have the most chances created and most shots in the whole Premier League and you say that they just past the ball around mindlessly. Gosh, you are dumb as shit.
City is trying to win by boring Chelsea to sleep...utter crappy footy....they actually make Chelsea look like an exciting team....seems they need to be a goal or two down before they can be bothered to play...
Cancelo out there playing left winger basically... Pep playing into the open space Potter forcing him to continue to attack up the right side with Gundogan and Cancelo shutting down the left side with Foden and De Bruyne. KDB is drifting side to side to counter this. KDB will score if he can get a good through ball.
I love the wishful thinking of so many bettors down here, including some, so called experienced ones! LOL Just learn it for once and all that the Premiership is NOT an OVER 2.5 or OVER 3.5 goals venue! In fact, if we strictly look at big teams' performance against each other, we must say that the Premiership is almost always a typical, boring, UNDER 2.5 goals betting ground!
Not seen such a big price about City for a while.
Chelsea look poor of late with quite a few main players out injured. I think there will be more cards than goals.
City win
Under 2.5 goals
4 or more cards

@RichieRochdale Man City as always will play possession-based football, limiting opponents from having a ball. They will try to find spaces which won't be easy initially as Chelsea will probably bunker waiting for counters - at which they are not so good anyway recently. This approach is too apparent for Guardiola who will guard against that. Chelsea could also try to dictate tempo at times (slow one) and basically copy Man City. What is more, Man City are not "afraid" to go into ht with 0-0 scoreline, and I doubt Chelsea won't be bothered but such score as well. Later on City can introduce more quality from the bench and find holes in Chelsea defence and if they succeed, control the rest of the game. Basically, it is my idea from watching their recent games.
I don't feel like Chelsea improved much over the world cup break, now they have 2 big matches against City. I wouldn't expect Chelsea to sit with 8 in the box like Brentford and Everton did so we should see some better opportunities for City's front line. I don'tove the back line City has been using but I don't expect Sterling to score. Chelsea might get one back but can't see them scoring twice. City 3-1
@Marbella 9 from 12, because this will lose! Can't you see the stats of both teams from this season: less than 1 goals per game allowed by each team at home and away, respectively? Older stats (including head to head stats) and the fact that we are looking at 2 so called "big teams" are totally irrelevant! Nowadays big teams are the most likely to play alibi football and come short of our expectations!
The great Pep rises

@Zoltan Guardiola is the number one manager. He plays the best football. Get used to it.

Nobody believed me that this will be a low scoring game, and it is still 0-0. LOL There it is the Premiership for you! :)))
@Zoltan not nobody, sir ;)
City upped the tempo now twice more
@koziol.mutant Wow.
@koziol.mutant If it stays like this (78 mins), your prediction was perfect!
City is trying to win by boring Chelsea to sleep...utter crappy footy....they actually make Chelsea look like an exciting team....seems they need to be a goal or two down before they can be bothered to play...
@AramisMick Winning's winning. You can't play for goal difference at this stage

KDB is drifting side to side to counter this. KDB will score if he can get a good through ball.
@FootyFiyah KDB gave away the ball at least 4 times while under no pressure....the boys are still in the Christmas mindset...
City midfield keep losing the ball way too easy. Very unconvincing
Under 2 3/4 @1.9

Chelsea with a solid lineup + at home, I see them winning, bet placed.
Mark my word. 2-1 for city
Awesome, Ziyech today with an assist. Just like that, now keep him as a regular starter for atleast 3 games and you'll see wonders. just an advice xD
Based on the logic that even a stopped clock is correct twice a day....Haaland hattrick !!!!!!!!!! :p
Haaland, Cancelo and KDB shot each 4/1 Haaland, Cancelo and Gundogan Shot each 5/1

two boring teams. 0-0 ht ft 0-0 or 0-1
@koziol.mutant I can only congratulate you, sir! Bravo!
@koziol.mutant Well, your first half prediction is correct. Let's see at full time---.
@koziol.mutant merci
@koziol.mutant I am always very interested to read about your thinking on your predictions. Would you care to elaborate?

@koziol.mutant Thank you so much for taking the time. You are a person whose opinion I respect, in football betting.
@RichieRochdale thank you. I usually comment with a minimum of words, but actually can make it longer when am more convinced.
0-2

2.5 Over goals for me...
It has to be City. Fairly decent odds for the Cityzens of you stick them on with a Double (I've gone for Al Ahly).
@RichieRochdale You were soooo smart dude! Al Ahly lost! And the City game might be a draw!
@Zoltan Zoltan, what do you say, now, about my shit Double which, er, "doubled" my money?
@Zoltan ER, I think Al Ahly won 2.0? At least that's what it says in my cash-out?
@RichieRochdale Al Ahly lost 1-2
@Zoltan Al Ahly, the Red Devils, of Egypt won 2.0 away to ENPPI.
@RichieRochdale be more specific
will be a interesting game, I don't expect city to have it all their own way. I reckon a draw maybe even 0-0.
Bookings - ov. 2.5.✅ Goals - Away to score btw (1 - 3) goals.✅
0-0
Very large bet on Over 2.5 goals in the game @ 1.75 Odds
@Marbella how much money did u lose?
@Marbella how much money did u lose?
@Marbella You never learn my friend! LOL It will be again a low scoring game!
@Zoltan Never learn ?Hows that ?Last 9 from 11 large bets won.
