Chelsea vs Barrow Betting Tips: Chelsea / Over 3.5
Chelsea will look to maintain their strong start to the season as they face League Two side Barrow at Stamford Bridge in the EFL Cup on Tuesday. With 64 places separating these sides in the English football pyramid, a comfortable home win has to be expected.
The Blues return to the Bridge on Tuesday after a commanding 3-0 victory over West Ham on Saturday. Enzo Maresca´s side have lost twice in their last 20 Premier League matches, and Maresca has already set a new record by winning his first three away games as a Premier League manager.
Also strong in attack, six of Chelsea´s last eight victories saw at least three goals scored and that outcome has to be expected again this week.
With a busy schedule, the Blues are likely to rotate their squad on Tuesday, but even with multiple changes, their quality in depth should prove far too much for the visitors.
Barrow, who have reached the third round of the League Cup for the first time in over 50 years will relish the opportunity to play at Stamford Bridge. The League Two leaders have started their season well, having taken 16 points from a possible 21, but it would take something truly impressive to avoid a heavy defeat on Tuesday.
I´m backing Chelsea to win with a minimum of four goals expected for the hosts.
Chelsea team news
Head coach Maresca could make as many as 11 changes on Tuesday.
Reece James, Romeo Lavia and Malo Gusto remain sidelined. Pedro Neto, Joao Felix, Christopher Nkunku and Mykhaylo Mudryk are all tipped to come into the Blues XI.
