Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspurs – Premier League
The hot match titled the London Derby will be presented in the 28th week of the Premier League this weekend, where Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspurs will kill each other for three points.
This match is not only full of prestige but can also affect the second step next season. Especially Chelsea, where they desperately needed a victory in this match to keep hopes of finishing in the top 4.
Chelsea are currently ranked 6th in the temporary standings with a score of 50 points. The Blues are 3 points adrift of Arsenal in fourth place. With 11 weeks left in the Premier League this season then Chelsea cannot lose, if not their chances of playing in the Champions League next season will be increasingly difficult to realize.
Just like Chelsea, for Tottenham this match is also very important. Spurs who currently sit in third place with a collection of 60 points certainly do not want their position in threat. Moreover, their current position is followed by 3 giants, namely Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea. An additional 3 points in this match will certainly make their position more comfortable in their current position.
Chelsea have just lost in the English League Cup final against Manchester City at the weekend. However, in the game the Blues seemed to give new hope to their fans. Despite finally losing on penalties to Manchester City, Chelsea appeared heroically and were able to force the Cityzens to work very hard to defeat them.
On the other hand, Tottenham Hotspur just suffered a painful defeat from Burnley at the end of last week. In fact, in the match Spurs have been strengthened by their mainstay attackers who have recovered from injury, Harry Kane. This defeat also stops the series of victories they have won in the last 4 games.
The two teams last met in the League Cup semi-final this season. In the match that lasted two legs the Blues managed to excel with a convincing aggregate 4-2. In the match against Burnley last weekend, the Spurs goalkeeper had a wide gap to break into. On the other hand, Chelsea showed extraordinary determination last weekend. Plus the advantage of playing at home, Eden Hazard et al are expected to be able to take advantage of these benefits.
