Chelsea vs Valencia Prediction & Betting Tips - Champions League
by Steve Ashfield | in Champions League Prediction
Chelsea have a new manager this season and couldn't make big improvements to their squad during the summer due to a transfer ban. They started the season with a 4-0 loss at Old Trafford and then lost to Liverpool on penalties in the European Super Cup. Over 90 minutes, they haven't lost since that game at Old Trafford. The notable change is that their goals are being scored by players who came through their academy. The weekend saw them win 5-2 at Wolves to go sixth in the Premier League. Tammy Abraham has already scored seven goals in the Premier League, well eight if you include his own goal against Wolves. Chelsea's last 12 home games in the Champions League have only produced one loss and that was to PSG.
Valencia had a poor start to La Liga last season but a strong second half of the season saw them qualify for the Champions League and reach the last four of the Europa League. If they had got past Arsenal, then they would have met Chelsea in the final. Valencia have struggled so far this season and are down in 13th place in La Liga with four points from four games. Their only league win has been over newly promoted Mallorca. The weekend saw them lose 5-2 at Barcelona and two away league games have produced two losses. Only one of their last eight away games in the Champions League have been won. Go for Chelsea to get the home win in this game.
