Before you make any Manchester City vs. Chelsea picks or English Premier League  predictions, you MUST see what SportsLine soccer insider Martin Green has to say! 

After working in the sports betting industry for several years, Green became a professional sports writer and handicapper and has covered the game worldwide. Since then, his European soccer picks have been spot-on. Green has generated almost $33,000 for $100 bettors since the 2017-18 season. 

Green went 23-23-1 on his World Cup picks and crushed his tournament predictions on the Early Edge, backing the USMNT to advance (+100), Kylian Mbappe to win the Golden Boot (+900) and Netherlands, England and Argentina all to win their groups (+210) among his correct picks.

Green knows that the Citizens have won three straight matches against the Blues, keeping them off the score sheet in all three. City have some injuries in the back, but all their attacking options are healthy. The key, of course, is striker Erling Haaland, who is on pace to set the EPL record in goals. He has 21 in 15 matches, and the top mark in a 38-match season is 34. City have a league-high 44 goals, scoring at least once in all but one match, and have conceded the third-fewest (16).    

The expert also has considered that Chelsea have the experience to compete with anyone. They have struggled to score, but Raheem Sterling (four goals), Kai Havertz (three) and Mason Mount (three) can all finish chances. The Blues have lost just once at Stamford Bridge -- to league leader Arsenal -- and are plus-6 in goal differential at home. They also are third in possession (59%), so while City are first (66.8), the Citizens aren't likely to completely dictate the pace.    

Now, Green has taken an in-depth look at the Manchester City vs. Chelsea match from every angle. We can tell you he is leaning under on the goal total and has two other CONFIDENT best bets and his full breakdown of the match. You ABSOLUTELY need to see his picks and analysis before making any selections of your own.
