Chelsea 8/13 to extend lead at the top with a win against Stoke City tonight

Competition: Premier League
Market: Chelsea to win against Stoke City
Odds: 8/13 @ Bet 365

Chelsea face Stoke City this evening knowing that a win will put them three points clear atop of the Premier League. Jose Mourinho threatened to run away with the title earlier into the season, but suffered a mini slump in form that left the door open for Manchester City to take advantage.

Stoke have been very inconsistent this campaign. The Potters have performed better against top-half opposition than they have against bottom-half entities. Mark Hughes’ men have already beaten Manchester City, Newcastle United, Swansea City, Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal, while losing to the likes of Aston Villa, Leicester City, Sunderland, Burnley and among others.

Their home form, however, is a shadow of what it used to be under predecessor Tony Pulis, with City having dropped points in two of their last three games at the Britannia Stadium. As a result, Bet 365 are giving odds of 8/13 for Chelsea to win against the Potters this evening, which will leave Stoke languishing in the bottom-half of the table nearing the mid-point of the season.
