Shane’s Free Pick
Chelsea’s offense has been awful heading into this game, and I don’t think it’s going to be no different in this game. Chelsea might finish with one goal here, but they aren’t going to be scoring more than that here. Look for a 1-0 or 1-1 type of goal and this game is going to stay under the total. Back the under to cash here.
