    Default Stoke v. City

    Well, this is the third time they're playing each other in the 10 days span. The first two ended in a draw.
    The away side have won only once in the last seven meetings between these two teams.
    Stoke have been beaten only once in their last 10 home games (birmingham) and is 10-0 ATS in their last ten games. While City is proven to be totally inconsistent on the road. Without Tevez, I'm sure City won't be able to do much. Mancini even came out and say that they'll play stoke's style of football this time to have a shot at winning. Quoting "Against Stoke, the ball will always be in the air. So we will prepare for a different game and not play our football." Basically saying, "we don't know how to beat these guys, let's try and play their game". This is a lack of confident shown by the manager, and often times we know what outcome it leads to, a "not-so-good-result".



    While Stoke is pumped and ready to go. City will have to face Chelsea this saturday and may be more focused on that game.


    Final Verdict:

    2 Unit Stoke +.25 @ -123

    If Tevex is back before Saturday's game, Man City actually have a decent shot at beating Chelsea, more so that Chelsea will be playing a CL game tomorrow in Italy.

    Covering the spread, sure that could happen. Winning at Stamford bridge? Don't think so.

    Oh! I thought the game was at Man City. I take that back then.

    I thought it was a home game for Man City. Nay nay nay nay. Man City winning at Stamford Bridge? Not this week.

    I think both teams might be disparate enough to push this into overtime, so I might go with the draw. If 1 gets a lucky goal then so be it, the draw here is too likely not to bet on. I could also make a play on the Stoke DNB at EVS, still not sure.

    C'mon Stokies! Take it to Citeh today..you were robbed the last game....good news is that Clattenburg won't be reffing this time. But may be a struggle without 3 of your top 4 defenders, Wilky, Faye and Higginbotham so will stay away from this game.

    Initially, I like the draw also, but three draws in a row. That would be odd.

    Is this game as dull as the score would indicate? It's not on in the US and I can't be bothered to load up a UK proxy to watch the ITV streaming feed.
