Tottenham are still battling with inconsistency, but on Sunday, they’ll hope for a good break. The Spurs will welcome Chelsea for their next league game in one of the London derbies on offer. Read on for our prediction of this match.
After their impressive 4-0 win against Manchester City, Tottenham have fallen short in the last three matches. They drew in the two matches that came right after that then most recently they fall 1-0 to Bournemouth.
At the moment Spurs are among the best scoring sides, but six defeats in 14 matches leave them eight points behind Chelsea.
The Blues are on a roll and their transformation under Enzo Maresca is going well. They get into this match placed second deservedly. Like the two other sides behind Chelsea, the visitors are hoping to open a gap in the congested top-four.
That will, at the same time, help in their title challenge after years in the doldrums. With 31 goals scored, no team has netted more than the Blues up to this point in the season.
They boosted this tally in their 5-1 win at Southampton, making it four straight wins. The Blues are unbeaten in their last seven matches and have three straight wins away from home.
The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium is no longer the fortress the home fans desired it to be. They come into this game having failed to win any of their last three matches there. In the last two home games, they scored first but were pegged back, and it will be even tougher against this Chelsea side.
The Blues go into this match with four straight wins and holding the favorites’ position. Our prediction for Tottenham Hotspur v Chelsea is for Chelsea to win.
