English Premiership log leaders, Chelsea, will head to Rome tonight with a Group A victory firmly in mind and with consummate striker, Nicolas Anelka, clearly in some of the best form of his life, their task shouldn’t be all that difficult.
AS Roma is battling to find any sort of cohesion and have been hammered in Italy’s Serie A competition. They have experienced their worst start to the local competition in over 30 years and with their captain, Francesco Totti, an unlikely participant in tonight’s clash, they are probably going to find themselves under the proverbial cosh.
The Blues will also be without some of their key players - Michael Ballack, Ashley Cole and Ricardo Carvalho have all been sidelined due to injury. Although these talented players will be missed, Chelsea’s recent form suggests they will leave Rome with a pocket full of points and will continue into the next stage of the UEFA Champions League.
Bookmaker, totesports, is offering a range of betting options on the battle in Rome including to score a penalty, half time result, total goals and more. Current match betting odds are AS Roma 2/1, a Draw 9/4 and Chelsea 11/10.
