Chelsea vs Tottenham – Premier League Betting Tips

Out of form, Chelsea will clash with Tottenham for the third time in 2022. They have met twice in the EFL Cup, and Chelsea won in both clashes, but things are looking shattered for Chelsea in the EPL, and Tottenham would love to get revenge. 

Chelsea has not won any EPL game in their last 4 matches, with their last win coming against Aston Villa. However, they have not been losing either as they have lost just 1 game (against Man City), and all others have been avoidable draws.

Tottenham has been in good form after avoiding defeat in 5 matches in a row. They even managed to avoid defeat to Liverpool and have won most of their last 6 games in the EPL. 

Which team would come out victorious? We can’t say for now, but here are the team news and tips for this match.

Chelsea Form and Team News

Chelsea has been bad in their recent EPL matches. Watching them play in cup competitions, they look like a different team to the one that plays in the EPL. They played 23 games in the EPL and won only 12, with 8 draws and 3 losses. 

Against Brighton, they led in the first half and still let go of the winning having been outplayed. This situation has been seen in their recent matches (against Everton and the first leg against Brighton). 

For the team news, some first-team players will be missing in action, and the players likely to miss this clash are Chalobah Trevoh, Chilwell, Christensen, James, and Mendy, who is playing in the AFCON.

Tottenham Form and Team News

Tottenham had a bad season but changed their manager to Antonio Conte, and things took a positive turn for them. They have not lost in 8 straight EPL matches after their 2-0 loss against Manchester United back in October. 

This run of games has seen Tottenham back to contending for Champions League spots, and a win in this match can send them to the UCL spots where they can lock their position. 

For the team news, Tottenham has some players that will be missing this match due to injury, and they are Reguilon Sergio, Romero Cristian Gabriel, Dier Eric, and Son Heung-Min.

Our Tipsters Angle

Chelsea is in bad league shape at the moment, and it might look like it’s because they are missing their wingbacks, James and Chilwell. Chelsea is now desperate for a win, and a win against Tottenham will serve as more than a boost for them. 

Tottenham would be out for revenge after being cast off the Carabao Cup by Chelsea. Also, they have met Chelsea 3 times this season and lost all three, so they will be out for a win. 

Here are our tips for this match:

Tip 1:  Chelsea Win or Draw

Chelsea hasn’t been in great form, but they haven’t been losing their matches either. As mentioned above, they have clashed with Tottenham 3 times already this season and won all three. In fact, in the last 10 games between Chelsea and Tottenham, Chelsea hasn’t lost on fulltime whistle to Tottenham. 

Boosting of this incredible record over Tottenham and the recent performances, we think that Tottenham will at best get a draw for this match. 

At the Casumo Bookie, Chelsea to Win or Draw is available at 1.17 odds.

Tip 2:  Chelsea Over 5.5 Corners

Chelsea would need to attack from the start of this game. They have already been at the back foot at their two games and we think they would have to change that. Even with their lack of winning runs in recent EPL games, they have been playing over 4.5 corners (except their match vs. Man City). 

Tottenham has also conceded 3+ corners in their matches this season. They’ll be out to score Chelsea and probably sit back to defend if they are able to score. 

For Chelsea to have over 5.5 Corners, the market option is available at the Casumo Sportsbook for 1.48 odds.

Conclusion

This London derby is a weekend cracker that would close the EPL week. Chelsea hasn’t beem having a smooth ride at the moment, but it is not necessarily their fault. They have played more games than any team in Europe and are still in more competition than any team. 

Fatique and injuries have shaped how they play, but we think they will do just enough to avoid a defeat against Tottenham.
