Kick off time: 3pm ET Thursday
Venue: Stamford Bridge — West London
TV Channel: Peacock
Streaming: Stream live on Peacock
Goalscorers: None
Sanchez - Gusto, Chalobah, Colwill, Cucurella - Caicedo, Fernandez, Palmer - Neto, Sancho, Jackson
Vicario - Spence, Romero, Van de Ven, Udogie - Bergvall, Bentancur, Maddison - Odobert, Son, Solanke
The two sides staged an engaging seven-goal thriller on Dec. 8, as Chelsea erased a 2-nil halftime lead with a four-goal second half that included a pair of Cole Palmer penalties. Both teams have seen better days, with once title-fighting Chelsea in fourth place and without a win over a current top-half side since toppling Aston Villa on December 1 in the middle of a five-match Premier League winning streak.
For Postecoglou, Spurs have lost all the good vibes from a three-match winning streak that coincided with a return of several long-injured players. They've taken just one point from their last nine in the Premier League and have only one win in five matches across all competitions — a home defeat of AZ Alkmaar in the Europa League Round of 16.
OUT: Nicolas Jackson (thigh), Mykhailo Mudryk (suspension), Omari Kellyman (hamstring - out for season) | QUESTIONABLE: Cole Palmer (thigh), Noni Madueke (thigh), Marc Guiu (groin)
OUT: Dejan Kulusevski (foot), Richarlison (lower leg), Radu Dragusin (torn ACL - out for season), Kevin Danso (hamstring) | QUESTIONABLE: Lucas Bergvall (illness)
Predicting Spurs outcomes is an infuriating endeavor, as Postecoglou's men are capable of the sublime and the sleepy. Chelsea are still missing some key attacking pieces with a few others not at 100 percent. Dejan Kulusevski's absence swings our prediction, and we'll tip the Blues for three points at home. Chelsea 2-1 Spurs.
