Tottenham take on the visitors Chelsea in the round 25 match of English Premier League. The match will be played on Sunday, February 26th at Tottenham Hotspurs Stadium (London).
Tottenham have noticeably improved since the arrival of Antonio Conte as head coach. The result was the acquisition of fourth place in the Premier League last season. This means that they have returned to the Champions League (although they were also lucky that their competitor and historical rival, Arsenal, failed in the final stretch). The "Spurs," by the way, looked quite good in the long-awaited main European Cup. Not without certain nerves, but still, the English team made it out of the group stage. And then they played well at the San Siro against Milan. In the end, they still lost, but the score, 0-1, does not look like a death sentence. However, Tottenham could have performed better there, and a similar assessment can be given to their performances at home. At the moment, they are holding on to fourth place, although Newcastle is very close and has played one game less. Before the 2-0 victory over West Ham and the 1-0 victory over Manchester City, they lost 1-4 to Leicester.

Chelsea has become synonymous with the word "failure" in English football. No, of course, there is Southampton with its last place or West Ham in the relegation zone. But still, the London grand is blatantly failing this season. Moreover, the quick decision to dismiss Tuchel only had a short-term effect. Replacing Thomas Graham Potter only provided a short-term boost, but his departure led to a protracted crisis. Boehly tried to fix this by adding many new players in the winter, but most of them disappointed, including Mudryk, who made a good debut but then didn't show much - as did practically everyone else. It is enough to mention the results of the last matches, already in the updated lineup. After a hard-fought victory over the currently weak "Crystal Palace," there were draws with "Liverpool," "Fulham," and "West Ham," and last week there were losses of 0-1 to "Borussia" (Dortmund) in the Champions League and to "Southampton" - the worst team in the Premier League!
Tottenham has not won a head-to-head since 2019. Last season, Chelsea won everything - both matches in the Premier League and in the League Cup semi-finals. And only in August 2022, already in the new championship, the "Spurs" literally snatched a draw - Harry Kane scored a 2-2 equalizer in the 96th minute. Bookmakers believe that the clubs' chances are quite equal. But Tottenham is clearly stronger and more stable - we recommend betting that they will win, even with a "0" handicap.
Prediction for the match: Tottenham to win with 0.0 handicap.
