Chelsea v Tottenham Preview

Chelsea’s Form 

Enzo Maresca has had a rather solid start to his Chelsea tenure since being appointed last summer. In his opening 43 matches in charge, he has guided them to 25 wins for a win rate of 58.14%. This has seen the club rise from 6th last season to currently occupying 4th position and they can right the wrongs of their EFL Cup Final defeat last season and FA Cup Semi-Final if they can go on to win the Conference League with their next game a quarter-final against Legia Warsaw.

Though their Premier League form has given them an excellent chance to return to the Champions League next season, three defeats from their last five league games have them only five points ahead of Bournemouth in tenth position. Thus these final nine games of the league will be crucial as to whether this season is defined as a “success” or a “failure”.

By the time this game comes, Chelsea will not have played in 17 days since their 1-0 defeat to Arsenal,  an unprecedented break in the age of “Modern Football”. Whether they will be sharper for the break or sluggish we will find out Thursday Night.

Tottenham’s Form     

Ange Postecoglou, in his seminal season in the Premier League, demonstrated a refreshing change from the status quo with his no-nonsense approach to the media along with appealing brand of football. Though the season ended with a 5th finish and no trophies there was a positive belief in their trajectory. This season has been a mixed bag 14th in the league. Their season very much hinges on whether he can bring them to Europa League glory with their next game a quarter-final tie with Eintracht Frankfurt.

Tottenham are coming into this game on the back of a run which has seen them only win once in their last five games across all competitions. Their last game was a defeat to another London rival in Fulham by a 2-0 scoreline with Muniz in the 78th minute and former player Sessegnon in the 88th minute scoring. They were arguably unfortunate though amassing an XG of 1.41 to Fulham’s 1.04 a failure to convert their chances cost them.

They will want momentum ahead of their European quarter-final and so will go as strong as possible for this game before maybe resting players for their weekend fixture against Southampton.

Key Players To Watch

Cole Palmer - Chelsea

Cole Palmer in his debut season for Chelsea was sensational scoring  27 goals and providing 15 assists from 48 games in all competitions.

Palmer is a throwback player who entertains and plays with freedom a refreshing change to the usual regimented tactical robots often found playing football now. This season he has 14 goals and 7 assists in 33 games but is now without a goal contribution in his last 11 matches. He is priced at 4/1 to score first and 21/20 to score anytime.

Dominic Solanke - Tottenham

Following the departure of Tottenham legend Harry Kane for Bayern in the summer of 2023 it was always going to be an impossible position to fulfil and though they elected not to sign a “direct” replacement that summer, Solanke came in last summer for a £65 million fee from Bournemouth.

While not nearly as talented as Kane, Solanke is quite effective himself at leading the line a natural threat who likes to dribble and bring others into the game with flick-ons. In his debut season at the club, he’s managed 11 goals and 8 assists in 33 matches. He is priced at 9/1 to score first and 9/4 to score anytime.

Chelsea v Tottenham Prediction & Best Bet

Prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Tottenham

Chelsea have won their last three games against Tottenham but require another on Thursday Night or they will be in danger of falling down the table.

Tottenham have been poor in the Premier League this season but remain a threat on their day and this could be a crucial game to give them momentum for Europe.

Two teams not in the best of form recently, but Chelsea are usually reliable at Stamford Bridge so that could be the pivotal factor.

Best Bet: Chelsea Win + Under 3.5 Total Goals @  21/20
