Kick-off 2pm Sunday

Sunday could be a pivotal day in the race for Champions League qualification with the fourth, fifth and sixth-placed Premier League sides in action.

Chelsea currently hold the final place in the top four but the Blues are unlikely to have an easy ride at home to FA Cup finalists Watford.

The Blues, who face a second leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday, have not looked secure recently but nor have the visiting Hornets, who have not kept a clean sheet in 12 outings.

However, they are strong going forward and will fancy their chances of getting on the scoresheet at Stamford Bridge.

Recommendation
Both teams to score
3pts 10-11 Betfred
