Chelsea vs Tottenham preview
Chelsea faces Tottenham with a 51% chance of winning compared to Tottenham's 25%. The most likely scoreline is 2-1, which aligns with Chelsea's expected goals of 2.00 against Tottenham's 1.61. Chelsea's recent form shows 3 wins and 2 losses in their last 6 matches, while Tottenham has struggled with 5 matches without a win.
