Chelsea will be resting players for their upcoming match against Barcelona in the Champions League. Good luck.

Man U. has won 13 out of 15. Good choice BossTown. I have been neglecting the Premier League for the French and Italian leagues. Maybe I'll take another look at them.

quantum, do you really think they will be resting key-players for long if something does not go right? mourinho will go for everything and while living in england now since a year i must admit that the big teams like to rest players in the early stages of fa cup anf therefore strange and unpredictable results.

But chelsea is on a mission this year..morinho wont take anything for granted and to risk the fa cup it's just not him and not the attitude of the team. i think it gives us more of a value here. i'll be on chelsea. not big, but i see clearlythe value with chelsea.

Drogba and Robben are out. Terry is suspended. Chelsea has struggled to score recently and I think it continues today. I like the half goal here as a draw is distinct possibility.

Right now ManU is the best team in the Prem.

I'm betting they are willing to settle for a tie. I can't see them going balls-out with their big match coming up. It's 1-0 Newcastle right now at the 36' mark.

One of the major points of this exercise was to show that you can find prices where you can't lose if you take all 3 sides. It's not much of a profit (something like 1%-2%) so it's not hardly worth it.

Newcastle were available at +350 and Chelsea drifted out to +130 after the teams were announced. If you got on at the right times a nice profit was available on this one.
