The Blues boast a formidable home record and they should be backed to record another low scoring Premier League win at Stamford Bridge
The Premier League's worst defensive side visit Stamford Bridge this weekend as Chelsea look to continue their excellent home form against a Stoke team who have been extremely poor on the road this term.
The Blues have won each of their last six home league matches, while the Potters have managed to just one victory away from home since May.
Match odds
bet365 price Antonio Conte's men at 1/6 (1.16) to claim their eighth home win of the season, and while the defending champions have been solid at home, they have been far from prolific with six sides bettering their record of 16 home strikes.
Stoke, for their part, enjoyed their solitary away win this term came Watford in October and are available at 14/1 (15.00) - although their visits to the division's top sides this term have seen them endure heavy defeats.
Mark Hughes' men were beaten 7-2 at Manchester City and 5-1 by Spurs in their only matches away to sides in the top five. The draw on Saturday afternoon, meanwhile, can be backed at 6/1 (7.00).
Blues to keep things to tight once more
Recent matches at Stamford Bridge have not been particularly high-scoring affairs and while the Blues have not been handing out thrashings, their defensive solidity has meant that they have not needed to score many goals to win matches.
Four of their last five home wins have come to nil, and five of their seven home victories this term have come in matches with under 3.5 goals.
Meanwhile, Stoke have conceded more goals than any other side in the top flight this season and seem unlikely to keep a clean sheet in west London where Chelsea should be too strong for them.
Tips and predicitions
Backing a home win and under 3.5 goals at 11/10 (2.10), therefore, makes plenty of sense and is a selection which has proved a regular winner in the champions' home matches.
This bet pays out with a 1-0, 2-0, 2-1 or 3-0 victory for the hosts and looks like giving punters plenty of options to more than double than money.
Odds correct at time of writing. Please gamble responsibly.
