Sheff Utd v Chelsea
Sunday 7 April
17:30 kick-off

Chelsea's inconsistent season was encapsulated in their crazy 4-3 win over Man Utd in midweek, while Sheff Utd have been pretty consistent all season in losing matches and conceding a ton of goals.

After that 3-1 loss at Anfield, the Blades have shipped 80 goals now, the most anyone's allowed after 30 top-flight games in a season in 60 years.

Mauricio Pochettino's side are six unbeaten in the league and while you wouldn't be entirely surprised if the Blues struggled at some point, the game looks up for the hosts who more than likely will test yet another defeat.

Leg 1: Chelsea -1 handicap

Even against this haphazard Chelsea defence, can we really trust Sheff Utd to score? And could we trust them to keep things close if the visitors got a couple of goals ahead?

The answer to both is no, and with both teams to score and over 2.5 goals pretty short we'll instead back Chelsea at -1 on the handicap at 1/12.00.

Leg 2: Cole Palmer to score

When you're hot, you're hot, and nobody's hotter in the Premier League right now than Cole Palmer, with seven goals and two assists in his last four games.

And against a team conceding as many goals as Sheffield United do, you've got to keep on riding the hot hand and back Palmer to score again at 6/52.20.

He's got 11 goal involvements in his last 11 away games, with five goals and six assists, but also being on the pens helps us here and I think he's nailed-on to score.

Leg 3: Cole Palmer fouled 1+ times

While we're on Cole Palmer, we're backing him to be pretty heavily involved in this game so with him on the ball a lot there's plenty of chances for him to be fouled.

And he's a decent price at 8/151.53 to be fouled just the once by a Sheff Utd side playing at home and at the start at least still fighting for their Premier League lives.

It looks a nice combination for a player fouled 34 times this season.
