Tottenham vs Chelsea Soccer Betting Tips – Premier League
Big poster to close this 22nd day of the Premier League! This Thursday, Tottenham will host Chelsea at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. In the standings, the two teams are tied, both counting 33 points on the clock but the Spurs having a game late to play. Mid-season, both Spurs and Blues are off the podium fight, let alone the title race, with 3rd Liverpool already showing 40 points and leader Manchester City 44 with one game less. Suffice to say that this shock could already be decisive because if the winner could revive and get closer to the top 4, the loser would find himself in a very bad position.
During the winter transfer window, Chelsea management decided to part ways with club legend Frank Lampard and replace him with former Paris Saint-Germain coach Thomas Tuchel. From his second match, the German coach has already tried to bring his personal touch, relaunching placarded players (Alonso, Abraham) or realigning a Kovacic-Jorginho pair in the midfield. For his part, José Mourinho struggles to find the right formula, the Special One has to do without Harry Kane, injured and released at half time of the match against Liverpool. On a series of 2 consecutive defeats and with 2 poor performances against candidates for relegation in their last 4 games, will the Spurs raise their heads against the Blues?
