The Jones Knows prediction
This is the dress rehearsal before the fireworks on May 29th in Istanbul.
And what do we know about dress rehearsals? They are never the same as the real ones.
As much as our taste buds want a vibrant game full of incidents and goals, the sensible strategy in this game is to counter goals. Without factoring in the likely scenario of a caution-focused game of football where both teams may play with a different focus, the fundamental numbers suggest a low-scoring encounter where chances will be hard to beat.
Since Thomas Tuchel took over, Chelsea have kept 18 clean sheets in 24 games and conceded just eight goals in 15 Premier League games under his supervision. Surprisingly, more than half of them came in a game against West Brom.
Then you have the city walls, masterfully run by arguably the best defender in the world in Ruben Dias. It's a defense that has prevented Neymar, Kylian Mbappe, Harry Kane and Erling Haaland from scoring for the last month. And one that, when teamed up, Dias and John Stones have conceded just eight goals in 21 games.
Much like the FA Cup tie between the two, this will be a game of chess in an environment where a tie is fine for either manager.The 0-0 of 8/1 at Sky Bet must be a runner.
JONES KNOWS PREDICTIONS: 0-0
LAW SHOP:Previous correct score 0-0 (15/2 with Sky Bet)
