EFL Cup Final: Join 888Sport for 33/1 Chelsea or 7/1 Manchester City

The first showpiece final of the English football season was always likely to produce a set of generous bookmakers offers. 888Sport are among the most active in this respect and they have done it again with this new customer deal.

In keeping with most of their offers, new account holders get to take their pick between the two teams involved in Sunday’s EFL Cup Final. They can either opt for a Manchester City win and get enhanced odds of 7/1 or, they can put their money behind Chelsea and lift that all the way up to 33/1.

Both prices are for the win in 90 minutes and as we’ll now see, they compare very favourably with the open markets.

Standard Betting

Manchester City are the favourites for this game and the best industry odds for Pep Guardiola’s men to win in normal time currently stand at 3/5 with Unibet. Chelsea are reportedly getting a fair bit of support in the markets and they can be claimed at 19/4 with Ladbrokes and Coral while we should also mention the draw which is quoted at 16/5 with SportingBet.

Those are the numbers and if you have made up your mind who to back, here’s what you need to do next.

888 Sign Up

As mentioned, this is a new customer offer so you can only proceed if you don’t currently have any dealings with 888Sport. If that is the case, you are free to cross over from this link and on the other side of it, you will find a set of three simple sign up forms. Fill in the requested details, send them back across a secure server and you can expect to be welcomed on board in just a few minutes.

We now need some funds added in order to cover that bet. Click on the deposit button if you aren’t automatically taken to the cashier and note the following:

• The minimum deposit is set at £10.00 so please add this amount or more
• Most eWallets are excluded so we suggest using a debit or credit card to carry this out
• Remember to type in the Promo Code 888ODDS when asked to do so

In short, use your preferred plastic, add £10.00 or more and remember the code.

Staking and Profits

Those funds should have cleared immediately and when that happens, you are free to back the team of your choice. Stake the fixed sum of £5.00 on either Manchester City or Chelsea to win the 2019 EFL Cup Final. The game takes place at Wembley on Sunday February 24, 2019 and if, at the end of those 90 minutes, you have landed a winner, payment will come back to you as follows:

Profits are paid in two parts with an initial sum going out in cash. This will be calculated on 888Sport’s open market price for the 90 minute win and it is set to arrive on the final whistle. The remainder, up to whichever of those two price boost sums is applicable, will then follow on as a series of free bet tokens within 72 hours.

Do look out for those tokens as they must be used in full within 7 days and while that concludes a full summary of main terms and conditions, you are free to check all these points in full on the 888Sport offers page if you prefer.

Blues v Sky Blues

Most pundits are looking to the obvious bet and tipping a Manchester City win in this contest. They demolished Chelsea 6-0 when these teams met in the league a few weeks back and that is seen as a good indicator for the EFL Cup Final.

Chelsea are getting plenty of backing however and with City slipping up to unlikely teams in Crystal Palace and Newcastle, there is definite hope. The choice is ultimately yours but with significant price boosts available, this could be an optimum time to sign up with 888Sport.
