Tottenham vs Chelsea Tips

Tip 1

Chelsea are in search of their fifth straight victory after hitting Southampton for five – a game in which they were unable to keep a clean sheet in for the 14th time this season and the third occasion in the last five outings.

They’ve netted a league high 31 goals under Enzo Maresca so far; a tally which Ange Postecoglou is only three shy of despite sitting eight places lower.

Both clubs have conceded 15 and both their head-to-head history and recent fixtures suggest that this will be a fruitful game in terms of goals.

Tip 2

After being rested midweek, Nicolas Jackson will be licking his lips to come away from the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with another goal added to his tally.

He scored a hat-trick on this ground last term, giving him four goals in two appearances against Spurs.

Right now, the in-form forward has eight goals in 13 league matches, boasting two in his last three and seeing five of them netted away from Stamford Bridge.

Tottenham Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

Spurs suffered another serious setback this week when limping away from the Vitality Stadium after being handed a 1-0 defeat by Andoni Iraola’s Bournemouth on Thursday, leaving Tottenham alarmingly in 10th place.

Sunday’s hosts lost yet another centre back in their midweek defeat as Ben Davies was withdrawn with an injury that Ange Postecoglou believes could sideline him for a while.

Tottenham Predicted XI: Forster; Porro, Gray, Dragusin, Udogie; Kulusevski, Bissouma, Sarr; Johnson, Solanke, Son.

Chelsea Form, Team News & Predicted Line-Up

The Blues demolished Southampton 5-1 in their midweek clash, launching themselves to second in the table, although they’re still some distance behind leaders Liverpool with a margin of seven left to make up.

Wesley Fofana and Reece James, both still suffering from hamstring problems, are the visitors’ only absentees for this all-London clash.

Chelsea Predicted XI: Sanchez; Gusto, Disasi, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Sancho, Palmer, Neto; Jackson.
