Tottenham - Chelsea FC

This London derby puts under a serious pressure the managers of both teams. Tottenham and Chelsea definitely have big ambitions and any direct confrontation between them can be crucial. Chelsea have a good balance of meetings against Tottenham, especially in the Premier League for the past 13 years, where the blues have 16 wins against only 3 of his rival.

This visit of Chelsea, however, is expected to be extremely tough. Tottenham is in decent form and so far the team has recorded four wins and one loss in the 5 rounds played in the Premier League. It is important to note that the Spurs have kept a clean sheet in 8 of their last 9 matches. Also, the Spurs have won 5 of their last 5 home games in the league.

Chelsea on the other hand, are unbeaten in their last 7 games against Tottenham. The team of Jose Mourinho did not start the season in the best possible way and even allowed 2 consecutive losses (Everton and Basel). However, Chelsea are unbeaten in 12 of their last 13 games in the Premier League and even after their unconvincing performance lately, may be in this game we can see the more aggressive side of Chelsea.
