Tottenham vs. Chelsea: preview, tips, odds, live stream

Monday night will offer the big London derby Tottenham vs Chelsea. While Spurs can go top of the Premier League after Arsenal’s loss to Newcastle on Saturday, the visitors are eager to peek into the top half of the table.

Tottenham vs Chelsea analysis, preview

Tottenham are experiencing a dream start to the season, with 26 points before the start of Round 11 they led the entire league. New coach Ange Postecoglou is breaking one record after another. The most notable one is that he is off to the best league start in club history with Spurs.

Chelsea are still on a roll, after two good games they look terrible again in the third. This was evident in the last round when they fell at home to Brentford and once again the performance dropped them two levels down.

Tottenham’s key figures

Spurs are driven by a pair of ‘sons’. New captain and Korean offensive mainstay Heung Min Son has netted eight goals and assisted once, while summer signing from Leicester James Maddison has assisted five more in addition to three shots.

Chelsea’s key figures

Out of Chelsea’s misery, Raheem Sterling can be singled out, the England winger has struck four times and assisted once so far. Manchester City’s summer signing Cole Palmer has netted four goals and assisted on three.

Tottenham vs Chelsea tips, odds

Postecoglou is the king of home games, he hasn’t lost over 50 games on home soil in league competitions. The streak, of course, stretches back to his involvement with Celtic, but in any case he has beaten Manchester United in this edition.

Ironically, Chelsea are better away from home, two of their three league wins have come on their opponents’ ground. In fact, it has won only once at Stamford Bridge since April.

Considering the different frame of mind of the two teams, it pays to bet on Spurs at nice odds. Taking into account the slight improvement of the Blues and also their away results, the choice on a goal scored by both sides also makes sense.
