We will bring you all you need to know ahead of the Chelsea vs Tottenham Premier League fixture slated for Sunday at Stamford Bridge. In the opening day fixture, Chelsea managed a slim 1-0 victory over Everton, thanks to Jorginho’s penalty goal.

Match Preview

Tuchel’s side are suffering from lack of top 9 striker as the managed Kai Harvertz upfront and later swapped in former Man City man Raheem Sterling yet there was no threat from the attacking line.

It can be recalled that the Blues lend out striker Rumelu Lukaku on a loan to former club Inter Milan and few days ago we witnessed the transfer of second striker Timo Werner back to his former club RB Leipzig leaving the club with no striker at the moment.

Tottenham Hotspur however, are in good shape following their 4-1 victory against Southampton in the opening day fixture of the 2022/23 English Premier League season. Antonio Conte’s men came from 1-0 down to win their opening match at White Hartlane.

During the summer transfer market, we saw Tottenham reinforcing their attacking line by landing Everton’s prolific winger Richarlison, and he will be a good addon to the Tottenham squad this season. No doubt, it could be said that Tottenham will go into the Sunday encounter at Stamford Bridge as the favourite to win the game but Chelsea will not like to disappoint their home fans.

Chelsea Team News

During Chelsea’s opening game against Everton, the Blues were without striker Timo Werner and midfielder Ross Barkley who were both out due to a thigh injury. Werner has however completed a transfer to former club RB Leipzig and will definitely not going to feature in Chelsea’s team anymore.

The Blues featured their new signings in their opening games at Everton, where former Man City man Raheem Sterling was superb all through the 90 minutes of play, raining havoc on the Everton’s defense line.

Kalidou Koulibaly was also solid in back putting in impressive effort to settle into the Chelsea team as Thiago Silva dishes him instructions from time to time on what and what not to do in the defense line.

Both players will surely start in the match against Tottenham and are hopefully going to record their names on the score sheet. Chelsea are in good shape with less of injury worries.

Tottenham Team News

Tottenham’s new signings Yves Bissouma, Clement Lenglet and Ivan Perisic all featured in the match and they were introduced in the second half of the game. However, Richarlison was sidelined and was not included in the squad that played the opening game due to gross misconduct.

Also the team was without Oliver Skipp who was injured. Though Richarlison may likely feature in the game against Chelsea but Skipp is still out of the squad for now.

Tottenham’s last season’s top scorer and the EPL joint highest goalscorer for 2021/22 season, Heung-min Son was not on the score sheet last Saturday but was able to set up a goal for Eric Dier in the first half of the game. Hopefully, he will like to record a goal or two against the Blues, though it won’t be that easy considering the caliber of defenders at the Chelsea’s defensive line.

It was also a blunt start for the Tottenham forward Harry Kane have failed to score nor assist a goal in their 4-1 victory last Saturday, If any player will crave for a goal against Chelsea then it should be Harry Kane.

Chelsea vs Tottenham Prediction

When we talk about a cracker, we might be talking about this fixture. The London derby is going to be a tough one no doubt, considering the fact that the season had just begun and every team is craving of a good start to the season.

Both teams secured a victory in their opening day fixtures and will be looking forward to maintain their form by picking all three points at Stamford Bridge, but this is not as easy as it is said.

There will be few goals in the game possibly not more than three goals as both teams have a good defensive line at the back. Likewise over 2.5 is not guaranteed in the match.

Chelsea will try to contain the visitors but it will be difficult outclass the free-scoring Conte’s men. If asked who could win the game, i will tip Tottenham to win otherwise it’s gonna be a draw.

Prediction: Chelsea 1-1 Tottenham

Adrie van der Poel deelt verontrustend bericht over Mathieu

Published

on

Wout van Aert kende een dramatische afloop aan de cross in Mol, maar ook Mathieu van der Poel kwam niet ongeschonden uit deze wedstrijd. De Nederlander had het bijzonder koud, en kwam zelf eerder ook ten val. Vader Adrie zag daar een probleem.

 

Valpartij had invloed

Nochtans maakte Van der Poel duidelijk dat hij geen schade heeft overgehouden aan zijn tuimeling: “Eigenlijk viel ik zelfs nog zacht”, aldus de Nederlander. “Ik kreeg gewoon mijn voet niet uit mijn klikpedaal in het zand, waardoor ik stomweg omviel. Maar ik heb er gelukkig geen last van.”

 

Zo zag vader Adrie het echter niet tijdens de wedstrijd. In een interview met Sporza stelde hij immers dat Van der Poel last ondervond van zijn eerdere valpartij, eerder nog dan van de koude. Al voegde Adrie er ook wel aan toe dat zijn zoon niet bepaald staat te springen voor een koers in de sneeuw.

 

Van der Poel viseert enkel de koude

Reken daarbij nog de haast ondragelijke koude, en we kregen een verkleumde Van der Poel te zien na de finish. In zijn interviews achteraf stond hij nog steeds te bibberen, en maakte de wereldkampioen duidelijk dat hij behoorlijk hard had afgezien.

 

“Het was geen aangename cross. Ik heb het nu al een beetje warmer, maar ik heb zeker veel koud geleden vandaag”, luidde het bij MVDP. “Je weet ook dat wanneer je nadien weer opwarmt, het vijf minuten echt veel pijn gaat doen. Met dat gevoel was ik de laatste rondes al bezig.”

 

Voor Van der Poel was de conclusie dan ook duidelijk: “Dit was de moeilijkste wedstrijd van het jaar. Na een tijd hadden mijn handen en voeten zo veel koud dat het niet meer vanzelf ging.” Nu maar hopen dat vader Adrie toch geen gelijk krijgt over een mogelijke blessure, die door onderkoeling mogelijk onder de radar zou zijn gebleven.

Bruno Fernandes failed to convert a spot-kick as Granit Xhaka sealed the victory for Arsenal in the 70th minute.
