Scorecast Away!: Costa to leave City feeling the blues

The two favourites for the Premier League title meet at the Etihad this weekend and we reckon it will be the home side that end up feeling the blues.

The two favourites for the Premier League title meet at the Etihad this weekend and we reckon it will be the home side that end up feeling the blues.

Jose Mourinho’s side suffered something of a setback with a draw against Schalke in midweek but in the Premier League they have been imperious and will fancy their chances against a Manchester City side whose title defence has stuttered at times in this campaign.

Last season, a Mourinho tactical masterclass helped the Blues to a 1-0 victory at the Etihad and we think that something similar might happen this time around, particularly with the likes of Cesc Fabregas and Diego Costa in the form they’ve been in so far.

Legendary Coventry striker Mickey Quinn is the only striker in Premier League history to have started a campaign as well as Costa has this season and we think that a price of 33/1 for the Spanish international to score the only goal in an away win for Chelsea is very tempting indeed.
