The first piece of silverware in England goes on offer this Sunday as Chelsea face Manchester City in the EFL Cup Final at Wembley (16:30GMT).
Chelsea were beaten 6-0 by City a fortnight ago and Sarri’s side have since been put out of FA Cup on Monday by Manchester United, prompting bookmakers to slash the odds on the Italian’s departure from Stamford Bridge before the end of the season.
While Pep Guardiola’s City side snatched victory from the jaws of defeat in midweek with a 3-2 win in the Champions League away to Schalke to extend their winning run to 5 successive wins in all competitions.
The Citizens were victorious in the League Cup 12-months ago with a 3-0 win in the Final over Arsenal and are unsurprisingly strong favourites to defend their crown at 2/7 with Bet365.
Leroy Sane has scored 2 goals in his last 2 games, inc. that stunning free-kick on Wednesday night against his former club and the German winger is 6/1 with Bet365 to open the scoring on Sunday afternoon. |
All odds correct as of 23:30pm
