| Chelsea are still on their path to the Champions League and currently sit in fourth place. With just a four-point lead over ninth place, the team can't afford to drop too many points heading into the final stretch of the season. However, the bookies favorize the hosts in this match. After all, they have won all of their last four Premier League home games at Stamford Bridge and even kept a clean sheet in the last two games. With 34 points from 29 league games, Tottenham sits in a completely sobering 14th place in the table. In a case of defeat they can theoretically even fall to 16th place. While relegation worries are unlikely to arise with a 17-point lead over the first relegation spot, there's no doubt that this season will end in a complete disaster for the guests from North London. Tottenham are extremely weak away from home. Only Southampton and Leicester have lost more away games in this season. Tottenham manage to win only one of their last 12 Premier League matches against Chelsea. |
