Birmingham vs. Chelsea Betting Odds Preview

The leader Chelsea should react against Birmingham on Saturday at the soccer betting Premier League, having defeats in three games against Liverpool (2-0) and Sunderland (0-3), if want to stay on top of the table.

However, bad news for 'Les Bleus' keep coming after it had extended the number of patients in nursing. After the announcement of captain John Terry, who could be sidelined for several weeks, even months, joins Brazilian defender Alex, who suffers from a sore knee.

If we add the low fitness of Didier Drogba, who has not recovered since suffering malaria, the suspension of Michael Essien and Frank Lampard's return, the defending champions are subject to one of the worst teams in the league.

For its part, the Arsenal is two soccer betting points and is expecting another error of their neighbors.

The French manager Arsene Wenger, who have five wins in their last six games, will receive at Tottenham (7 º), which is holding a regular season.

With the young Gareth Bale, Rafael van der Vaart, Luka Modric and Jermaine Defoe, visitors to the Gunners were imposed on a champion of Europe, Inter Milan, 3-1, so it presents an interesting game without a clear favorite.

Manchester United, which is in 3rd place, three points behind the leader, awaits the return of Wayne Rooney, at least on the bench after being out for a month.

The 'Red Devils' need the creativity of their star after two games tied. Meanwhile, Liverpool (11 º) will try to continue recovering at bottom club West Ham, despite the injury to Steven Gerrard, who will be sidelined three to four weeks.
