The Alli Way To Beat Chelsea
There's a sense that Spurs have been picking up results without playing their best. Kane, Erikson and Alli could be back in business now though and the latter has a fine record in this volatile fixture.
Tottenham entertain Chelsea on Saturday night having won their last 6 top flight London derbies. That run includes a crucial 3-1 victory at Stamford Bridge last April when Deli Alli bagged a second half brace.
That took the England midfielder’s stats to 5 goals in his last 4 appearances against the Blues and we can get 15/2 with Skybet on the 22-year-old scoring in a Spurs’ victory again.
That may look fanciful when you consider the visitors’ unbeaten run in the Premier League but they arguably could have lost any of the clashes with the big boys they’ve faced so far in 2018-19.
Crucially Pochettino can finally call on Kane in top form, although interestingly the England captain is dropping deeper and looking a good bet for more assists these days. Eriksen may also be back in the starting line-up and both are liable to release Alli, who just loves scoring against these bitter rivals. At the price the bet makes sense.
