Chelsea vs. Manchester United betting odds have Chelsea as the 2.20 favorite and Manchester United with odds of 3.10. Approximately €120 would be paid out on a €100 bet for Chelsea to win and €210 on a €100 bet for Manchester United to win.

The folks from The Spoiler believe that Manchester United have an excellent chance of winning.

Some reasons cited:

Manchester United have a knack of ending unbeaten runs. They famously ended Arsenal's 49-match unbeaten league run but also stopped Chelsea in November 2005 when they were on a 40-match unbeaten streak.

The Red Devils have followed their last nine league defeats on the road with victory in their next away game.

United have only lost at Anfield four times in the Premier League.

Sir Alex Ferguson's side haven't lost consecutive league away games since April 2005 - away to Norwich and Everton.

Chelsea failed to score in either of their two home league games last September and won none of their three home games in all competitions that month.

When Manchester United make a shaky start to the season, they tend to turn it around in big games.

The Chelsea vs. Manchester Sunday matchup will be a massive draw for punters.

Luiz Felipe Scolari v Sir Alex Ferguson Two big, uncompromising characters barking out instructions within a few yards of each other - if this high-octane occasion carries the potential to get heated, so does the scene on the touchline, writes Alan Smith of the Telegraph.

This rivalry, in fact, could develop into a classic, a simmering contest to compete with Ferguson's long-running and often bad-tempered duel with Arsene Wenger.

As things stand, though, United's manager doesn't really know how Scolari thinks, making any stab at second-guessing his new adversary fairly difficult. That could lead to the Scot making one or two adjustments early on, if 'Big Phil' manages to pull a fast one with some surprise tactics.

Iowa State: Are They The Underdogs To Look For In March Madness?

They may be defined as “underdogs” or “Cinderella teams”, a term that is usually saved for teams that have little to no chance of winning even a single game during the NCAA Tournament. Teams like Loyola Marymount (1990), George Mason (2006), Davidson (2008), VCU (2011), UConn (2014), and Loyola Chicago (2018) come to mind when conversations turn toward the most surprising tournament runs in recent memory.
