Sevilla vs Chelsea Predictions

• Chelsea have kept seven clean sheets in their last nine
• The Blues have played out 0-0 draws with Spurs, United and Sevilla in that time
• Defeat for either side would leave them unable to finish top

Backs to the wall for Lampard’s men

Despite splashing the cash on an array of attacking talents in the summer, Chelsea’s progress this season has come at the back. The Blues have excelled at the back of late, keeping seven clean sheets in their last nine.

That’s been key for the Blues in big games, as they’ve managed to hold Tottenham, Manchester United and Sevilla to 0-0 draws of late. With the Blues facing a big test in Spain on Wednesday, we see another display of grit from Frank Lampard’s men.

Both sides are already through and will be turning to domestic concerns, but the winner of this clash will claim top spot. From a more negative point of view, the losers will be left facing a much tougher draw.

It could be that the pair see this as a must-not-lose game, so we will likely see a tight clash in Seville. We’re backing under 2.5 goals to be scored in this one, while we’re also backing another 0-0 draw as our correct score prediction with neither defence giving much away at the moment.
