Prop Bets: Everton VS Chelsea 2025-12-13
Chelsea vs. Everton: A Clash of Title Hopes, a Feast of Props
The Premier League’s 16th round delivers a tasty morsel of tension as Chelsea (5th, 25 points) and Everton (7th, 24 points) square off at Stamford Bridge. Both clubs are locked in a dogfight for European qualification, separated by just one point in the table. Bookmakers have Chelsea as clear favorites at 1.65 (58% implied), while Everton’s longshot bid to shock the Blues sits at 5.58 (15.5%). A draw? That’ll cost you 4.11 (24.3%). Analysts are leaning toward a high-scoring affair, with over 2.5 goals at 1.88 and both teams to score at 1.85.
The Gist:
- Chelsea’s Edge: The Blues have won 2 of their last 5 against Everton, with 2 draws and 1 loss. They’re chasing a top-four finish, and their Champions League struggles (10 points in 6 games) mean they’ll treat this like a must-win.
- Everton’s Spark: The Toffees are just 2 points behind a top-four spot, but their 2-0 League Cup exit to Wolves might’ve sapped their energy. Still, they’ve got nothing to lose here.
The Props to Bet Your Grandma’s S House On:
1. Cole Palmer to Score Anytime: +155 (6.5% implied). The young phenom is the most dangerous Chelsea attacker, and his 155 odds for a goal make him a no-brainer.
2. Marc Guiu to Score Anytime: +170 (5.7%). The Spanish striker’s price is absurdly low given his role in Chelsea’s attack.
3. Cole Palmer to Assist: +240 (30.7%). If you want a “twofer,” his assist line at +240 is equally tempting.
4. Both Teams to Score: 1.85 (54%). With Everton’s attack (1.4 goals per game) and Chelsea’s leaky defense (1.3 goals conceded), this feels like a 50-50 coin toss priced to win.
The Joke:
Let’s face it, Everton’s best bet is to hope Cole Palmer’s hairline fracture (not listed here, but let’s pretend it is) sidelines him. Without him, Chelsea’s attack collapses into a pile of “meh.” But since that’s not in the data, we’ll just say: bet on Chelsea to win, but don’t be surprised if Everton’s underdog magic (5.58!) turns into a 2-1 upset fueled by Facundo Buonanotte’s +270 goal prop.
Final Verdict:
Chelsea should win this, but the props are where the real fun lies. Back Cole Palmer to score and both teams to score for a tasty double. If you’re feeling spicy, take Marc Guiu at +170—he’s the ultimate “I didn’t see that coming” play.
And remember, if Everton pulls off the shocker, send FanDuel a strongly worded email about “rigged odds.” 🏴⚽️
