Pre-Match Predictions

Relatively speaking this is a good start to the season for us (Spurs)! We haven't been brilliant but we've hung in there and flown somewhat under the radar. Are we going to win the league? No. However, when considering the lack of signings and the ongoing stadium fiasco then being in the hunt is some achievement. We look a little brittle through the middle. I'd take a draw.

Prediction: Tottenham 1 - 1 Chelsea

I am not convinced by Spurs this season so far. They seem to have a great team but some sort of spark is lacking in their game. The good thing for supporters is that they keep collecting those points against weaker opponents. Chelsea are not weaker, though. I'm sure Hazard is fully fit to play and Chelsea will go for all 3 points. It will be slow and physical.

Prediction: Tottenham 0 - 2 Chelsea

It's been an unbeaten run for the blues so far in the league, and I don't see them allowing Spurs to puncture their record. However, I don't see Sarri getting out with a win because Spurs won't be willing to suffer a 4th defeat now. For me, both teams won't want to spoil the hovering Xmas for their supporters, so will be okay sharing the spoils.

Prediction: Tottenham 2 - 2 Chelsea

A draw here would suit me best as a Liverpool supporter and I wouldn't be surprised to see that happen. Both teams have what it takes to get the job done, but there's enough on the line that it may become a cagey affair. If a team is going to win it, I think it will come down to the star players, Hazard or Kane. One moment could be all it takes to grab the 3 points.

Prediction: Tottenham 1 - 1 Chelsea
