Our prediction for the match Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspurs
Both clubs from London tried to rehabilitate themselves last season after the failure of 2022/2023. As expected, they improved their performance, returned to the European competition, but not to the Champions League. Postecoglou lost the race for 4th place to Aston Villa. Pochettino, by the way, the former Hotspurs coach, earned only 63 points and finished in 6th position – that was not enough for the ambitious management of the project.
The Argentine mentor was replaced by Enzo Maresca in the summer. He started well, but there was a decline in the winter. The club paid for this with elimination from the cup and a decline in the championship. Nevertheless, it reached the quarter-finals of the Conference League, having overcome Copenhagen without problems, and then returned to the top 4 in the Premier League. And even the defeat made by Arsenal did not prevent from staying there. The opponent is doing badly, except for the Europa League, where the English club will soon play with Eintracht Frankfurt at the 1/4 stage. At the same time, there were failures in other tournaments, for example, in the League Cup. The team lost heavily at Anfield after a 1-0 result in the home confrontation with Liverpool. As for the Premier League, the club lost more than half of the matches, including to Fulham in the previous round. Having got 10 wins and 34 points, the team stays in 14th place in the Premier League.
Palmer and the company score 1.83 goals per match. Still, there are questions about the defence – the grandee concedes almost 1.3 goals in response. The opponent’s ratio is not much worse, despite the distance in the table – 1.9/1.48.
