Spurs can give Chelsea the blues

The day’s Premier League action kicks-off with Spurs playing host to Chelsea (12.45pm KO, Live on BTSport1) and the home side look worth a wager at 13/8 with Ladbrokes and Paddy Power to come out on top.

The Lilywhite’s recent record against the Blues has improved, and after failing to win any of their first 28 Premier League clashes with them they have only lost five of the last 14 (W3, D6).

They also have the best defensive record in any of Europe’s top five leagues this season having conceded only one goal so far, and face a side who have lacked killer instinct and found it hard to score goals since the return of Jose Mourinho.

Spurs boss Andre Villas-Boas also has a hatful of players returning to action following a spell on the sidelines through injury to strengthen his squad and has a striker on Robert Soldado who is capable of causing the Chelsea defence all sorts of problems.

He can be backed at 7/1 with BetVictor, Paddy Power and Stan James in the first goalscorer market and looks well worth an each-way wager at those odds given that he is as short as 4/1 elsewhere.
