Genuinely surprised at the betting odds for this game tonight:

Burnley: 7/2
Draw: 5/2
Chelsea: 10/11

Burnley are flying at the moment, whilst Chelsea are anything but. Burnley can move up to 6th with a win, and have a genuine chance of European qualification, whilst flaky Chelsea may well have their minds on the weekend's Cup semi, and Conte may well pick a weakened side as a result.

Am I missing something?

Strange old match tonight, while it would be funny if Burnley overtake Arsenal we definitely don't need them to continue with their head of steam going into the match next weekend. But that said if they beat Chelsea and view our game as easy three points we might stand a better chance so long as we have our Man Utd away heads on rather than our Everton away heads on

Deffo worth a punt/lay on Chelsea not to win at those odds unless I am missing the point? Wouldnt mind seeing Burnley scrape into Europe at all to be honest would be quite pleased (as long as it's by no way to our detriment of course)

It's one of the re-arranged games due to the Cup semis. Thursday is strange and whilst I understand the traditionalist sentiment, I quite like having games on most days.

cheers for pointing this out. I didn't quite get 7/2 (took 10/3) on my WH account, but worth a couple of quid none-the-less.

You should have had a boost you could have used to improve that to a shade over 7/2 (4.59).

good point. However having just looked at repeating the same bet (purely to see if there was a boost) i did not have one. The cash-out value was the same as the stake so i could still have cashed out and re-made the bet it if it was available. Not sure why it is not there, or indeed, if it should be.

Still odd playing it on a Thursday but I guess they already had it tagged for TV, and couldn't clash it with the Muff last night (or us on Tuesday obvs).

Think I'll give this one a swerve and watch the Leicester v Soton game on a moody stream.

Interesting to see that whilst Leicester's form is good, their home form isn't great...

So what is a moody stream chap?

Great, so our next match is away to the form team of the Division :down:

Come on Leicester make it less stressful for us.

Indeed, but I'm with Gazwag. A win for Burnley tonight and they may well take their game with struggling Brighton as a bit of a 'gimmie' and we can perhaps take advantage (straws: clutching at).

I feel another Ashley Barnes WORLDY coming on.

Lordy, this place will go into meltdown.
