Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea Prediction

Tottenham Hotspur are currently 4th in the league, seven points behind 3rd-placed Manchester United. They made a couple of loan acquisitions in January, with Dutch attacker Arnaut Danjuma and Spanish right-back Pedro Porro both joining the club.

There have been concerns over the form of Son Heung-min; the 30-year old is regarded as one of the best forwards in the league, but has failed to reach the heights that he managed in previous few seasons. Dejan Kulusevski has produced some good performances, but the reliance on Harry Kane to run Tottenham Hotspur's attack has increased after Son's average performances and Richarlison's limited minutes in the league.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are 10th in the league. Graham Potter is under immense pressure to turn things around after a poor run of form, and it does not help that Chelsea decided to spend a bucketload on money in January after having spent a bucketload on money last summer.

Argentine midfielder Enzo Fernandez has shown his capability, while the likes of Joao Felix and Mykhailo Mudryk are showing signs of their undeniable potential. However, with so many new acquisitions, it will take time for Potter to get things going at the club.

A close game, with Tottenham Hotspur to win.

Prediction: Tottenham Hotspur 2-1 Chelsea
