Chelsea 4/11 to win this afternoon’s Capital One Cup final against Tottenham

Competition: Capital One Cup
Market: Chelsea to lift the trophy
Odds: 4/11 @ Ladbrokes

Chelsea face Tottenham in today’s Capital One Cup final, which is also a London derby. The Blues are the favourites to win, but they have lost to Tottenham earlier this season. Cup finals are often cagey affairs, with both sides fearful of defeat. Therefore the game could be quiet in normal time, with tired legs or individual brilliance deciding the game.

Jose Mourinho’s side have had much more of a rest that Tottenham, who played in the Europa League just says before the final. It gives the Premier League leaders a major advantage, but Spurs manager Mauricio Pochettino rested key players for their midweek game to ensure important stars will be fit enough to play this afternoon.

There’s every chance the game could go past extra time, so Tottenham must ensure they are wise with their players and not making too many substitutes too early. While the Lilywhites have most recently beaten Chelsea, Mourinho’s men are being backed by Ladbrokes, with odds of 4/11 to lift the trophy, either by normal time, extra time, or penalties.
