Chelsea v FC Noah: Prediction, Tips and Odds

Chelsea are expected to secure a comfortable home win over FC Noah to maintain their perfect start in the UEFA Conference League.

Chelsea have put four goals past both Gent and Panathinaikos to secure six points from six at the start of the competition and another big win looks likely when they host Armenian outfit FC Noah on Thursday.

Chelsea v FC Noah betting tips and predictions

Correct score - Chelsea 4-0 FC Noah - 6/1

Chelsea are living up to their billing as UEFA Conference League favourites after making a fine start to the league phase with a 4-2 home win over Gent and then a 4-1 victory at Panathinaikos.

They are tipped to outclass FC Noah on Matchday Three with Enzo Maresca's men expected to dominate at Stamford Bridge in what should be a one-sided affair.

The visitors' rise to this stage of the competition has been remarkable. The Armenian league runners-up, who were only formed in 2017, battled their way impressively through four qualifying rounds to make the competition proper, becoming the first club in the Conference League's short history to do so.

If the minnows were to somehow qualify for the last 16 it would be another stunning achievement but the reality is that they are likely to struggle with the step up in quality, especially when facing in-form Premier League opponents like Chelsea.

Noah did beat Czech team Mlada Boleslav 2-0 in their opener in the league phase before restricting Rapid Vienna to just a 1-0 win next time out but they are set to be on the end of a heavy defeat here.

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall - Anytime goalscorer - 15/8

Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall's playing time under Maresca this season has been restricted to just six starts overall, with four coming in the UEFA Conference League, including in both legs of the play-off round, and two in the EFL Cup.

The former Leicester midfielder has been keen to seize his chance and has caught the eye in this competition.

Dewsbury-Hall scored the fourth goal in the 4-2 victory over Gent and so far in the two league phase matches he has had a total of five shots, two of which have been on target.

With Maresca again set to ring the changes for this tie, Dewsbury-Hall should get another opportunity to impress.

Joao Felix - Over 1.5 shots on target - 1/1

Joao Felix is another member of Maresca's deep squad that has had to wait patiently for his game-time this season with the Portugal international yet to make a Premier League start.

He has, however, featured regularly in the other competitions, starting both EFL Cup ties and the matches against Gent and Panathinaikos in Europe.

He scored twice against the Greek outfit, in a game in which he had four shots, two that were on target, while in the EFL Cup defeat to Newcastle, the 24-year-old had six shots in total and again two on target.

Against a much weaker team in the shape of Noah, Felix could have a field day and the 1/1 on him managing over 1.5 shots again appeals.
