In the English Premier League crunch match on Wednesday night we will have two of the top 4 hopefuls in the league taking on each other in what will be massive game, a win for Chelsea will surely put them in the comfort zone and they will probably finish 3rd in the league if they can snatch all three points at home, while a defeat for Spurs will shatter their chances of finishing in the top 4 so that makes it one of the most important games of the season for both the clubs. Chelsea of course are coming into this match on the back of a 1-0 win over Manchester United in the league while Spurs beat Southampton in the 1-0 win when bale scored late in the game to keep spurs on track.
Rafael Benitez is slowly winning chelsea fans although he is certain to leave the club at the end of the season even if he do finish in top 3 and win the Europa League, which in my opinion will be harsh but a certain special one is probably be making a comeback to english football. Rafael Benitez has given the European Champions a new life and they are using a good system which is getting results in the league and in Europe as well.
Tottenham on the other hand have been poor in the last month or so, their early season form has kind of suffered a setback with the last difficult run of games, they had to play really difficult games in the last part of the saeson which hampered their chances of finishing in the top 4, now they probably have to win all three remaining games to have a chance and a defeat in this match against Chelsea will surely put an end to champions League dream for another year.
CHELSEA EXPECTED LINEUP:
Petre Cech, Azpilicueta, Branslav Ivanovic, Garry Cahill, Ashley Cole, David Luiz, Ramires, Oscar, Juan Mata, Eden Hazard, Damba Ba
TOTTENHAM EXPECTED LINEUP:
Hugo Lloris, Walker, Michael Dawson, Vertonghen, Assou-Ekotto, Tom Huddlestone, Holtby, Aeron Lennon, Clint Dempsey, Gareth Bale, Jermain Defoe
Chelsea have been really strong in this fixture of the years, and they are unbeaten in the last 5 games between Chelsea vs Tottenham, winning 3 and drawing 2 which shows the kind of task Andrea Villa Boes have at his hand, This game is important for both sides for same reasons and that is to finish in the Champions League places and right now I am predicting a win for Tottenham and this race to finish in the top 4 will go right down to wire.
