Chelsea vs Tottenham Preview
Recent results
After losing 3-0 at Brentford before the international break, Chelsea have reeled off two consecutive Premier League wins. The Blues thrashed Bournemouth 5-1 on home soil, before collecting a crucial 2-0 victory at Everton thanks to a double from Pedro Neto.
Tottenham finally ended their long wait for a Premier League win on Monday evening. De Zerbi’s side beat Coventry 3-1, with James Maddison excelling on his first start of the season. Dejan Kulusevski also made an appearance off the bench after a long injury nightmare, another welcome boost. Spurs’ previous away game saw them draw 1-1 with Manchester United, a point salvaged by Dominic Solanke’s stoppage-time equaliser.
Head-to-head record
Chelsea won 15 of the last 19 games against Tottenham, which is an absurd record between two ‘Top 6’ teams.
The Blues won 1-0 at Spurs and 2-1 at Stamford Bridge last season, the latter being De Zerbi’s debut in this historic rivalry.
Chelsea are unbeaten in the last eight Premier League home matches against Tottenham, the most recent defeat occurring in April 2018 (1-3).
Team news
Goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez picked up quite a serious head/face injury vs Everton and is out for a while, joining Reece James, Jamie Gittens and Emmanuel Emegha on the Chelsea treatment table. Defenders Malo Gusto and Pep Chavarria are both doubts.
Tottenham’s injury list is typically long, with Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert, Savio, Lucas Bergvall and Mykhailo Mudryk all unavailable. Rodrigo Bentancur continues his red-card suspension, while Destiny Udogie, Andy Robertson, Tosin Adarabioyo, Pedro Porro and Omar Marmoush are flagged as doubts. Selection headaches for De Zerbi!

Chelsea vs Tottenham Betting Tips
Both teams to score – Yes @ 1.52
Over 2.5 goals to be scored in the match is priced at just 1.48, so we think it is worth opting for this slightly more valuable option. Yes, Spurs are yet to score on the road this season, but have tallied five goals across the last two games. And Chelsea’s previous top-flight clean sheet at home was recorded way back in January, further enhancing the BTTS appeal on offer.
Anytime goalscorer – Joao Pedro @ 1.97
For those who have backed Pedro to deliver on home soil this season, it has proven to be a lucrative betting avenue. The Brazilian forward scored in all three Premier League matches hosted at Stamford Bridge in 2026-27, tallying four goals and two assists – a phenomenal return. Oh and Pedro netted three times in his three previous top-flight outings against Spurs. Backing him at close to evens to strike on Saturday therefore feels like a no-brainer.
Player to score or assist – Morgan Rogers @ 1.79
Speaking of players with a good record against Spurs, we arrive at this Rogers-themed selection. The England international boasts four goals and two assists from his six previous clashes with the North Londoners across all competitions, scoring in two of the three contests between Aston Villa and Spurs last term. Rogers also sits on eight goal contributions from nine appearances in 2026-27, so betting on him and Pedro to land decisive blows in this derby could be the way to go.
