Premier League betting – Chelsea vs Spurs

Chelsea vs Spurs betting odds, tips & free bets

There’s another big London Derby on Saturday evening as Chelsea and Tottenham clash at Stamford Bridge as both sides look for a strong finish to the season. This tie has produced some great games over recent years but Chelsea’s record against Spurs at Stamford Bridge is fantastic after winning 12 of the last 18 meetings in all competitions. Spurs may be wanting revenge though after Chelsea won this fixture 3-0 last season.

Chelsea

The Blues appear of have made one last challenge for the Premier League title after winning 7 of their last 8 league matches and conceding just 6 goals. Chelsea do still have a chance of reclaiming their title but it relies on current leaders Manchester United slipping up and the Blues will have to overcome a tough task against Spurs on Saturday. Carlo Ancelotti’s men have a good record at home against Tottenham recently but they have lost their last 2 trips to White Hart Lane. Fernando Torres scored his first Chelsea goal last time out and so he should be brimming with confidence ahead of the weekend, with this in mind then the striker is looking good at 5.5 with Paddy Power to open the scoring. Chelsea’s good form makes them clear favourites for the tie and a correct score of 2-0 is showing nicely with odds of 8.25 available from Unibet.

Tottenham

Tottenham’s challenge for a Champions League place come the end of the season took a bother blow on Monday when they drew 2-2 at home with West Brom. This draw means they are now 4 points behind Manchester City with 4 games to go and facing a tough trip to Chelsea on Saturday. It appears that it has been a matter of too many draws for Spurs this season as they have tied 5 of their last 6 Premier League matches. What is more worrying for Harry Redknapp though, is the fact that they have conceded 10 goals in those 6 games, an issue that will need to be addressed if they are to get a result at Stamford Bridge. Rafael Van Der Vaart has been a revelation this season after scoring 12 goals from midfield, and the Dutchman is looking good at 3.75 with Bet365 to score at any time.
