Tottenham at Chelsea 2/27/19 - Premier League Picks & Predictions

Two teams chasing different things will clash against one another on Wednesday, when Chelsea will host London rivals Tottenham. Chelsea are coming off a rather confusing loss in the Carabao Cup final against Manchester City, while Tottenham are also coming off a loss in their last match.

Chelsea (15-6-5) fought really hard in the Carabao Cup final but they eventually lost in the penalty shootout. The match was spoiled by goalkeeper Kepa’s antics to refuse to be subbed out so Chelsea are at a boiling point now. Chelsea are now sitting at the 6th spot of the league table with 50 points, just three points behind the 4th Arsenal and the Champions League spots. They have been really good at home so far in the league (8-1-4), featuring the 2nd best defense with just 9 conceded. Tottenham (20-7-0) will surely be feeling frustrated about their 1-2 loss on the road against Burnley. They were better overall but conceded a late goal that deprived them of any points. That loss also pout an end to Tottenham’s four-match winning streak. Hotspur are sitting at the 3rd spot of the Premier League with 60 points, five behind Manchester City and six behind Liverpool. Tottenham have the best away record in the league (11-3-0), and also the best away offense with 31 goals.
