Use bet365’s bonus code to get £30 in free bets ahead of Chelsea vs Port Vale

Apr 4, 2026 - 08:15

Chelsea host Port Vale at Stamford Bridge on Saturday in the FA Cup quarter‑final, a welcome break from their recent stint of nightmarish results. Liam Rosenior’s side suffered three straight defeats before the break.

With Chelsea desperate to bounce back and Port Vale chasing a historic upset, bet365 are offering new customers the chance to net £30 in free bets this weekend. Simply follow our link to bet365 and it will automatically apply our unique talkSPORT code TSPORT. Then register, deposit, and place a £10 qualifying bet to unlock the offer.

The Valiants arrive at Stamford Bridge as the story of this season’s FA Cup. The League One side sit bottom of the third tier with 31 points, but have already knocked out Bristol City and Sunderland at Vale Park to reach the quarter‑finals for the first time in a remarkable 72 years.

However, Jon Brady’s men are battling a lengthy injury list, with the likes of Ben Heneghan, Cameron Humphreys, Ryan Croasdale, George Byers, Ben Garrity and Jayden Stockley all expected to be sidelined this Saturday. They’ll rely on Ben Waine, who scored the winner against Sunderland, to carry their speck of hope and threat on the counter.

Meanwhile, Chelsea will be without Reece James, Trevoh Chalobah and Levi Colwill through injury, though Benoit Badiashile has returned to full training after illness and could feature. Liam Delap is expected to lead the line, with Cole Palmer, Estevao and Alejandro Garnacho supporting from midfield.

Score even more value with bet365

Follow our link to bet365, register, and place a £10 qualifying bet at minimum odds of 1/5 (1.20) or greater using our exclusive TSPORT code. Once settled, you’ll receive £30 in free bet credits, valid for seven days and usable on any single sports market.

A well‑timed boost as Chelsea look to salvage their season with a Wembley semi‑final spot, against a Port Vale side chasing the biggest shock of the cup.

Can Port Vale rattle Chelsea’s cage?

Chelsea have seen over 2.5 goals in 11 of their last 13 cup ties at Stamford Bridge, while Port Vale have kept six clean sheets in their last ten outings. The key battle will be whether Vale’s disciplined low block can survive an early onslaught over Chelsea’s obvious top-tier talent.

Chelsea to Win
Under 3.5 Goals

Chelsea’s recent attacking output has been anaemic, however, scoring no goals in three straight defeats, but facing a League One defence should provide the platform to mark a much-needed reset.

Vale will sit deep and make it ugly, but the hosts’ quality, even with rotation, should be enough to edge through without a goalfest. Chelsea to win by a low margin offers decent value for this fixture.
