In terms of the Valhalla Cup 3, this matchup carries extra weight.

If you’re backing this one, here’s the real talk.
Chelsea (Hayden) at 2.7 to win feels a tad skinny given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Valhalla Cup 3 this term. Their underlying numbers suggest they’re due a regression — stats nerds would fade them.
Newcastle United (Ronin)’s 2.35 line smells value, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The wise guys’ll likely poke at the Draw 3.2 — these derbies often follow scripts, and pressure can stifle attacking flow.
