Right lets have a look at the Chelsea semi-final -
My probable teams
Chelsea - Cudicini, Geremi, Gallas, Terry, Del Horno, Essien, Makelele, Lampard, Robben, Cole, Drogba
Liverpool - Reina, Finnan, Hypia, Carragher, Warnock, Gerrard, Alonso, Sissoko, Kewell, Crouch, Fowler
If they are the teams, I would say that this is a very equal game Chelsea are top quality and will cause Liverpool problems out wide where as Liverpool have quality in the middle. The key men for me will be the England duo Joe Cole and Steven Gerrard, if either get on the ball in space they will help win the game for their respective teams.
I would think that neither team will want to open the game up, with both teams having strong counter attacking options, so I would say
under 2.5 goals @ 2/5 this isn't very good value however.
The bet I like is
Second half most goals @ 11/10, I can see the first half being very tight and the better opportunities coming when the defences might get nervy towards the end.
As for the result I am very tempted by
Liverpool @ 13/5 such good value in a game as tight as this is.
West Ham @ 7/4 is my favourite bet, they will be fresh and rejuvinated for this game, the complete opposite to 'Boro and have in my opinion the better team too.
Everton @1/1 not the best value but I do think they will win, as they are still playing well and Brum are very poor in the league.
