Chelsea vs Noah Prediction, Odds and Lineups: Starter Nkunku to continue fine form in the Conference League
Chelsea are the red-hot favourites to make it three wins out of three in the Conference League tonight when they take on Armenian outfit FC Noah at Stamford Bridge, live on TNT Sports 1 at 8pm.
Blues boss Enzo Maresca has made 11 changes to his starting line-up, with Christopher Nkunku and Joao Felix two of the players brought in tonight.
Chelsea vs Noah Predictions
Christopher Nkunku may have been restricted to a sideline role in Chelsea's Premier League campaign but the Frenchman has sparkled when given the opportunity to shine in both the domestic and continental cup competitions.
Nkunku has scored in all four Conference League appearances (including qualifiers) so far and he bagged a hat-trick in the 5-0 romp of Barrow in the Carabao Cup.
He's a short-price at 16/25 to score against Noah on Thursday, a bet that looks far more appealing at 5/4 when teamed with Over 3.5 Goals in the game.
This double has been green ticked in both of Chelsea's group stage games so far - 4-2 against Gent and 4-1 against Panathinaikos - and the floodgates could well open again in a match that the Conference League betting favourites are as short as 1/40 to win.

Like Nkunku, fellow Chelsea attacker Joao Felix has been unable to force his way into Maresca's thinking in the Premier League, remaining an unused substitute in four of the last five top-flight matches.
Despite this, he has managed to net three goals this season, including a brace during Chelsea's 4-1 victory against Panathinaikos last time out in the Conference League.
Felix has come into the starting-11 tonight and will be looking to grab with both hands as he bids to improve his chances of accumulating more Premier League minutes. He's priced at 1/1 to get on the scoresheet on Thursday, but it's the bigger offering of 9/2 for Felix to open the scoring - as he did against Panathinaikos - which I like the look of at BetMGM.
