The first ‘big’ game of the season kicks off today as London rivals Chelsea entertain Tottenham at Stamford Bridge. Both clubs will be aiming to build on their victories last weekend. The Blues narrowly beat Everton 1-0 whilst their city rival blew away a Southampton side 4-1 at the Hotspur stadium. After showing a couple of vulnerabilities last time out,Chelsea will need to be at their best to stop a Antonio Conte's side boasting of an attacking duo in Son,Kane and now Richarlison.
With no major injuries to both sides,the 2 coaches will be looking to put out their strongest team. So,without any further ado, here are the confirmed starting line ups:
Chelsea: Mendy; Azpilicueta, Silva, Koulibaly; Loftus Cheek, Jorginho, Kante, Cucurella; Sterling, Mount; Havertz
Tottenham Hotspur: Lloris; Romero, Dier, Davies; Emerson, Hojbjerg, Bentancur, Sessegnon; Kulusevski, Kane, Son
When these 2 teams played at the Bridge last season, the Blues convincingly beat Spurs 2-0 courtesy of Thiago and Zyech’s goals.Given the form of both teams, I say: Chelsea 1 Vs Tottenham 2. What is your prediction? Leave it in the comments section below.
