Live on Sky Sports 2: Tues 19.45: Chelsea (2/5, Coral) can beat Swindon in the Capital One Cup but they could also concede.
Talk of a crisis at Chelsea was somewhat premature given that the Blues bounced back from their consecutive defeats to Everton and Basel by cruising to a derby success against Fulham at Stamford Bridge and Jose Mourinho’s side have to be fancied to follow that result up with a Capital One Cup triumph at Swindon.
Coral quote Chelsea at just 2/5 to get the better of their League One opponents, Stan James’s 17/2 outsiders and although Mourinho will inevitably make changes, the Blues have tremendous strength in depth and can field a line-up more than strong enough to get the job done.
Nevertheless, the Robins are in decent shape at the moment so they can at least give their supporters something to cheer so it’s worth considering William Hill’s 19/20 for both teams to score or Winner.com’s 13/8 for the visitors to prevail without keeping a clean sheet.
For the more ambitious, 888Sport post 23/2 against a 3-1 Chelsea triumph and in attack Demba Ba could be given some game time and he’s 17/4 at BetVictor to break the deadlock.
