Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur Prediction

Under2.5 goals
76% confidence

Why we picked this for Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur

For this EFL Trophy fixture we go with Under 2.5 goals for Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur, at 76% confidence. In their last 5 matches, Chelsea's games produced 1.6 goals on average, 1 of them over 2.5. Tottenham Hotspur's games averaged 3.6, with 4 of 5 over the line. Form on its own doesn't settle this one: 5 of the 10 recent games went under 2.5, which is worth keeping in mind before backing Under 2.5.

The head-to-head points the other way: only 0 of their last 3 meetings finished under 2.5 goals. Older meetings say less about how these teams play now, so recent form counts for more in our numbers. At 76%, most of the recent evidence lands on this side of the line, which makes it one of our stronger calls. Final score: 2-1. The pick lost.
