Premier League: Tottenham vs. Chelsea Preview, Odds, Head to Head, Prediction

Another London derby comes up this weekend, and in the main roles, we have Tottenham and Chelsea. The Spurs are in need of all three points due to their complicated race for the UEFA Champions League spot. Chelsea fans don’t have the patience and will not wait anymore. After a terrible sequence during which they couldn’t deliver a decent performance, the Blues fanbase openly showed its frustration, signaling to the new owner and the manager Potter that they won’t tolerate failures anymore. 

Tottenham vs. Chelsea Preview

Tottenham (+155) triumphed three times in the recent four Premier League events and is now fourth in the standings, but their closest rivals, Newcastle, have one point fewer yet a game in hand as well. This is something that puts pressure on the Spurs. 

Their most recent game was against West Ham, in another London Derby, which Tottenham won, 2-0, presenting a solid game and outplaying the tough rivals in all the critical aspects of the battle. 

The Spurs have back-to-back wins at the Tottenham Stadium, beating Manchester City before West Ham. They managed to restrain City’s attack and post a 1-0 victory over the champs. That was a major morale boost for Antonio Conte’s side after losing to City days earlier, losing a two-goal lead in the same contest.

Chelsea (+200) is without a victory for the past five games, having three draws before losing two in a row, in Dortmund and at home to Southampton. Both were with the same result, 1-0. Potter’s crew not scoring isn’t anything new because the Blues have only one goal delivered in the last five contests.

Their performances are weak and disorganized, and as a result, Chelsea has just one win in the recent ten contests, with four draws and five defeats. In eight of those games, we saw under 2.5 goals, and in seven goals only on one side.

Though we need to add that Chelsea didn’t have any luck in Dortmund, where they demolished the Millionaires yet lost in the end.

Sessegnon is out, Bissouma, and Lloris as well, while Rodrigo Bentacur ended the campaign and will miss the start of the following one with the way things stand at the moment. 

Azpilicueta, Pulisic and Mendy are out for this game, while N’Golo Kante still remains questionable, even though the Frenchman is back in training. 

Tottenham vs. Chelsea Head to Head Games

The first meeting of the year saw a draw at Stamford, 2-2. Prior to that event, Chelsea had five straight victories, and they haven’t lost in 12 direct meetings, which is more than an impressive stat. Chelsea is without a defeat in Tottenham’s house for five games, winning four of them.

Tottenham vs. Chelsea Prediction

Tottenham will have an excellent chance to break the negative streak against the big rivals and take the win here, because Chelsea comes to their stadium in awful shape. Plus, they will throw everything they got on the rematch against Dortmund and possibly sacrifice Sunday’s event. That’s why we recommend betting on the Spurs and their win, which is set at +155. The odds have a massive value here, and it would be foolish not to risk.

Pick: Tottenham wins +155
