Copenhagen meets Chelsea at home, in the elimination round of Champions League.
Copenhagen has been superb this season, unbeaten in the Danish SAS liga, taking the first spot with 51 points, 19 points ahead of the second Odense BK.
The team remains unbeaten at home in the Champions League as well, recording two victories against Rubin and Panathinaikos and a draw against Barcelona. Clearly, Copenhagen’s ambitions are to surpass this round, no matter that their opponent is Chelsea, the season 2007-2008 Runner up in CL.
Looking at the statistics, Copenhagen however has the worst shooting accuracy, hitting the target only in 29% of their shots. That hasn’t stopped the team to be unbeaten at home however, drawing 2 and winning 4 of their last 6 CL home games.
Chelsea, is currently taking the 5th spot in Premier League, something unusual for the Blues, to be out of the Top 4. The team has had a rough time for over 2 months now and was knocked out of the FA Cup, this Saturday by Everton. Knocked out from the Carling Cup by Newcastle, and sitting 12 points behind Manchester United in Premier League, seems like the only thing Chelsea can win this year, is Champions League.

Although Chelsea has once won here with 1:0, back in 1999, the team doesn’t satisfy with performance. Chelsea has two draws out of 3 games against Danish teams, while Copenhagen has only 1 victory in 6 games against English teams.
The odds for an away victory here are quite low only 1.75, so if you trust Chelsea that bad, go ahead and put em down on your betting slip.
I however am willing to back Copenhagen, odds of 5.00, however to play it a bit on the safe side, I am going with the Double chance bet for Draw or Copenhagen. Superb home performance, good results even against Barcelona, and Chelsea’s low performance recently make me think that this game will no come out favorable for Chelsea.
