Statz Match Predictions

Looking at projections, Chelsea are expected to have an edge in this one, unsurprisingly given United’s shaky start to the season, losing twice already to ‘Big 6’ opposition. We’re following the narrative this week on fouls. Garnacho is set to start vs his old club, and is a massive 5-1 for 2 fouls. Super sub is giving us an extra boost here with Bet365, Garnacho a certainty for a change later in the game.

  • Garnacho to make 2+ Fouls 6.0 (Bet365)

His Head’s Massive: Maguire SOT?

This one is subject to lineup confirmation, but if he’s in from the start, we’ve got a massive Statz Edge on a Maguire SOT. Last Season Maguire scored 3 big-game winning goals for United, and with their lack of goalscoring prowess on show again this season, set pieces are the order of the day. Our projections model puts this at a touch under 37% chance, with Paddy Power rating this around 23%, well worth an edge play.

  • Maguire to have 1+ SOT 4.33 (PP)

Booking Watch

Robert Jones takes charges of this one and let’s look at Statz’s Projections for yellow cards in this fixture. Dorgu is projected 2nd most likely for Man Utd from the starters at odds of 4.33 with bet365, this looks solid. Caicedo is also projected quite strongly, so we’ll combine the two for a nicely priced double.

  • Caicedo and Dorgu to be Booked 11.0 (bet365)
