New customer offer: 20/1 treble on Chelsea, Man City, Liverpool

Chelsea have recorded an average result of 4-0 in each of their last four meetings with Watford at Stamford Bridge across all competitions. That means Hiddink has got the perfect game to start his second caretaker stint on his hands here.

A change of Blues boss may mean Loic Remy gets more game time, and he scored when he started an FA Cup clash against the Hornets back in January. Willian, who has been Chelsea’s best player this term, meanwhile, grabbed the opener in that game, so will also be a threat.

Man City should smash Sunderland

In five head-to-heads over the last two years, Manuel Pellegrini’s men have scored 16 times against the Black Cats, and that is an average of more than three per match with four ending in victories.

Sergio Aguero, Kevin De Bruyne and Raheem Sterling all scored in the Capital One Cup clash away on Wearside between these two teams back in the autumn, and that firepower virtually guarantees a another win.

Klopp can land blow on Leicester

Liverpool have won three of their last four home Premier League games with the Foxes, so can draw strength from their fine record in this fixture when it comes to encounters at Anfield.

Reds captain Jordan Henderson was on target in the last match in front of the Kop, and also netted against the Foxes last term. Jurgen Klopp will be looking for his skipper to lead by example once more.
