Last Chance Chelsea, Everton and Avram.


People say that the title race was concluded last Monday as Heskey’s shot hit the back of Peter Cech’s net. Now Avram Grant isn't being criticized only by the media and fans, but also by his own players including his Israeli counterpart Tal Ben-Haim. There is no doubt that the pressure on him is increasing.

Tomorrow's match is a huge obstacle for Grant's team. Everton are going through a great season and are still dreaming of stealing the Champions League final spot from Liverpool. Still, they have to be aware of not losing their UEFA cup spot, as Portsmouth are breathing down their neck. Obviously, this match is extremely important for David Moyes’s lads.

Since both teams have no other choice than winning, BetUknow's community suggests that a draw is a perfect solution. 40% of them bet on Chelsea, 33% on a draw and the rest put their faith in Everton, so it's quite even. Everton’s top predictors also think the teams will share the spoils while Chelsea's top predictors think that resting their star players in the match versus Wigan will pay off, as Chelsea will emerge as winners.
A draw seems most likely, even though it will not serve either of the teams.

We should not forget that there is more than a Championship on the line, as this match sees a manager fighting for his career. Bare that in mind, as this might be the thing which will give Chelsea the edge..
