Chesterfield is going to lean on its great defense as they step up to face mighty Chelsea in this FA Cup duel. Chesterfield is in first place in the English National League behind a defense that has allowed 16 goals in 20 matches. They're unbeaten over the last three games (2-0-1) with a pair of 1-0 shutout victories over Grimsby Town and King's Lynn Town. Those were sandwiched around a 1-1 DRAW with Halifax Town. They've had five shut wins in their last six road games and have won three straight FA Cup matches while allowing just one goal. Chelsea is a powerhouse defensive team, too, allowing 16 goals in 21 Premier League contests. They've surrendered just four goals in their last four home games, but they only claimed one victory with three DRAWs against Liverpool (2-2), Brighton & Hove Albion (1-1), and 15th-ranked Everton (1-1). Plus, 15 of their last 18 FA Cup games have sailed UNDER 4 goals. Look for an all-out defensive game by both sides with ample wagering value on a deadlock. Play the DRAW and also back UNDER the total for a Max Play.
