Chelsea vs Morecambe Predictions

• Chelsea have only conceded one goal in their last seven FA Cup games against lower league opponents at Stamford Bridge.
• Chelsea have won 13 of their last 14 FA Cup home matches overall since 2015.
• Chelsea have kept a clean sheet in seven of their last eight FA Cup home fixtures.

Chelsea hoping to lift the gloom

A dismal run of just one win from seven games means Chelsea will take to the Stamford Bridge field in a real slump on Sunday, though the Blues will hope to use their Third Round FA Cup tie with Morecambe to restore some positivity.

With the club in desperate need of a pick me-up, a comfortable win against the League Two minnows would be just the tonic for Frank Lampard’s ailing side, and we think the Blues are worth backing to enjoy an easy ride against the Shrimps.

Chelsea have only conceded one goal in their last seven FA Cup games against lower league opponents at Stamford Bridge since 2016, and the Blues’ superior Premier League quality should allow them to keep a clean on their way to pushing past Morecambe and into the Fourth Round on Sunday.

With the match result markets best avoided for this David vs Goliath tussle, the Chelsea win to nil option looks a far more attractive prospect, while our 3-0 correct score prediction backs the Blues to ease through to the competition’s next stage.

Chelsea have won 13 of their last 14 FA Cup home matches overall since a shock reverse there to Bradford in 2015, and against a Morecambe side that look ill-equipped to cope with the Blues’ quick, creative players, a three goal haul looks possible for the hosts.
