One of the best games on Saturday’s slate features a London derby between Tottenham and Chelsea.
Chelsea are slight +150 favorites on the moneyline for this one on DraftKings Sportsbook, with a draw available at +260. Fancy a Spurs win? Tottenham are +170 on the moneyline.
Tottenham vs. Chelsea Prediction, Pick
For this bet to hit, we need Chelsea to win, but if they tie, the bet will void. Tottenham will be the happier of the two teams with their start to the season, sitting third in the table. Chelsea find themselves all the way down in 9th position with 14 points, but are only three points behind their London rivals. The Premier League table is very condensed at the moment, and every result is huge.
I like Chelsea to get a result in this one, despite their recent dip in form. The Blues have gotten the better of this fixture in recent years, winning each of the last four Premier League games between these teams. Chelsea have enjoyed their recent visits to Tottenham, scoring four goals in each of their last two trips.
I’m not sure if it will be that kind of day for the Blues, but I’ll still give them the edge in this one.
