Preview –

The Premier League Champion is not only out of form but their form is also so poor that it’s hard to believe that they were the champions last season. They are at the 16^th position of the point chart with only 11 points from their 10 matches and they aren’t showing any sign of recovering either. They are coming to this match after a loss to west Ham in their last match and they will be pressured for win here. But it can not be denied that they are the better team and thus they are the favorites.

Stoke City has a great chance as they will taking on a formless Champion who is struggling to even draw matches recently. Their home advantage should be a big help and their recent form is too well to ignore. They won 4 of their last 5 matches and looked quite sharp o the field.

Prediction –

We predict that Chelsea will win this match by 2-1.
