Sports Innovation previews the Premier League match between Chelsea and Tottenham and offers team stats, betting tips and the latest odds.

Chelsea and Tottenham meet for the third time in January for another London derby at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.

Ranked third in the Premier League table, Chelsea have collected 44 points from 23 games. The Blues have seen a bit too many draws recently, denting their title assault. However, with recent back-to-back EFL Cup wins over Tottenham to nil, they’ll be in a confident mood.

Tottenham, on the other hand, have not exactly set the world on fire lately. The Lilywhites have struggled a bit for consistency, having failed to mount a winning run this month. They sit sixth in the standings, nine points behind their London rivals.
