Tottenham Hotspur Betting Preview
Tottenham Hotspur comes into this game sitting 4th place having picked up 42 points so far this year. Last Sunday, Tottenham faced off against West Ham United, and they were able to secure a 2-0 victory. Emerson Royal opened up the scoring in the 57th minute. Tottenham had 57 percent of the possession and six shots on target. They also allowed only one shot on target. Tottenham is dealing with some key injuries heading into this game. Rodrigo Bentancur, Yves Bissouma, Hugo Lloris and Ryan Sessegnon are all dealing with injuries, and they aren’t going to be able to go in this game. In the last game, the defense was good, and they need the defense to step up again in this game.
Chelsea Betting Preview
On the other side of this matchup is Chelsea, who sits in 10th place in the standings having picked up 31 points. It has only been a disappointing season so far this year, and they are coming off another loss in the last game. Chelsea failed to score any goals against Southampton and that led to the 1-0 defeat. Chelsea had 62 percent of the possession and five shots on target. Cesar Azpilicueta suffered a serious head injury in the last game, and he’s not going to be able to go in this game. N’Golo Kante is back in training though and that could be a big boost for the team.
Shane’s Free Pick
Chelsea’s offense has been an issue heading into this game, and they are going to really struggle in this game. Tottenham only allowed one shot on target in the last game, and they are going to lockdown again in this game. Look for Chelsea’s defense to be good, though, and that will lead to this game being lower scoring. Back the under to cash.
