Cheltenham vs Chelsea U21 Match Predictions

Cheltenham has had one victory over Chelsea U21 in a previous meeting, a match they won by penalties. Will we have a regular-time winner in this second encounter? Here is how we have tipped these teams to fare against each other when they clash for the second time:

First Team to Score Prediction: Chelsea U21 to Score First

Bet on Chelsea U21 to open the lead in this EFL Trophy round 3 knockout match with Cheltenham. While Chelsea lost the only past encounter with Cheltenham in penalties, the blues currently have a better form than the hosts ahead of the duel. Note that Chelsea U21 won four of their last five games across all competitions. The Blues scored at least two goals in all the games and at least thrice in four of the fixtures. On the other hand, Cheltenham won three of their last five. However, the hosts couldn’t score more than a goal in any of the matches and failed to find the back of the net on one occasion.

Total Match Goals Prediction: Under 2.5 Goals

Secondly, bet on Cheltenham vs Chelsea U21 to end with fewer than 3 goals. The hosts may have had scoring challenges, but they have proved stronger defensively. Cheltenham did not leak more than a goal in any of their previous five games.

Correct Score Prediction: 2-0 to Chelsea U21

Lastly, we expect Chelsea U21 to win this game by 2 goals to nil. The fact that the Blues found the back of the at least twice in each of their last five games means they are likely to score two or more goals. Moreover, Chelsea U21 kept two clean sheets in the five games.
