Tottenham v Chelsea Premier League Betting Tips 8/12/24
Tottenham take on Chelsea in a London derby clash on Sunday afternoon, and the sides come into this one in opposing form, so here’s our free Tottenham v Chelsea Premier League Betting Tips. Spurs are mid-table after dropping a lot of Premier League points lately. In contrast, Chelsea is a team on the up as their rebuild under Enzo Maresca is in full swing. There are plenty of good betting picks to choose from in this usually feisty encounter. You can watch Tottenham vs Chelsea this weekend at 4:30 p.m. It will be shown live on Sky Sports.
Form and Team News
Tottenham have struggled to generate winning form in recent months. The North Londoners have secured just one victory in their previous six in all competitions – an impressive 4-0 triumph at Man City. Spurs have taken just one Premier League point since then and have slipped to 10th in the table. A 1-1 home draw with Fulham came before a 1-0 defeat at Bournemouth in mid-week. Things are looking more rosy for in-form Chelsea. The Blues have shot into title contention and are seven points behind league leaders Liverpool. Maresca’s side are undefeated in seven and have won three Premier League games in a row. The West London outfit have climbed the table after a 2-1 win at Leicester and a 3-0 home victory over Aston Villa. Chelsea continued their good form, thrashing Southampton 5-1 at St Mary’s on Wednesday.
Both sides have a few absentees for this clash. Tottenham will be without Wilson Odobert, Micky van de Ven, Richarlison and Guglielmo Vicario are injured and unavailable. Rodrigo Bentancur is also suspended. Chelsea trio Wesley Fofana, Reece James and Omari Kellyman will also miss out through injury here.
Match Winner Bet
The bookies have a clear pre-match favourite in mind for Tottenham vs Chelsea. Spurs’ recent downturn in form makes them the outsiders here. They had won six consecutive home games before a recent three-match winless run, including a shock 2-1 loss to Ipswich. Tottenham also have key players out in multiple positions, making this a severe test for the hosts. Bet365’s 9/4 odds show that Spurs are up against it on Sunday. A draw has longer odds, with VBet offering 31/10 for a London derby stalemate. This outcome could be more likely as Spurs have drawn their previous two at home against Roma and Fulham. But draws in this fixture are rare, with just one deadlock in the past eight meetings between the sides. All signs are pointing towards a Chelsea away win this Sunday. The Blues have so much quality in their squad and have found excellent rhythm in a current four-match winning streak. Maresca also has the luxury of squad rotation, which he utilised in mid-week. We can only see a refreshed Chelsea side winning again here, with Ladbrokes offering decent value at 23/20.
Over/Under Goal Betting
Tottenham and Chelsea don’t struggle for goals and neither side keeps many clean sheets either, so goals are expected in this clash. Spurs have scored 25 home goals in all competitions this season and have seen 14 goals across their last four in North London. Chelsea are the highest scorers in the 2024/25 Premier League campaign, netting 31 in 14 games. The Blues have also seen nine goals in their last two matches. Another high-scoring encounter could be on the cards at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. With an end-to-end contest expected, over 3.5 goals looks like a solid pick, and Bet365 is offering 10/11 here.
Anytime Goalscorer Bets
There are a few good selections in the anytime goalscorer market for Tottenham vs Chelsea. Brennan Johnson is in good form for Spurs and has hit the net four times in his last five for club and country. Three of these goals have come at home and the Welshman is worth backing to score again as Unibet is offering 27/10 odds. One Chelsea player who was rested in midweek and is likely to return on Sunday is Nicolas Jackson. The Senegalese striker has been a serious goal threat this season, with eight goals in 13 league games. Jackson has been particularly deadly away, scoring four goals in as many games on the road. The Bookies also have good value on more Jackson success in front of goal on Sunday. BetMGM is offering 9/5 for the 23-year-old to score at any time against Tottenham.
