Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea Stats-Based Bet Builder Tips: More Micky madness?

There's a London derby to look forward to in the Premier League on Saturday evening (17:30 GMT, Sky Sports Main Event) as Tottenham Hotspur host Chelsea at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Below are my Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea Stats-Based Bet Builder Tips, as I draw up a four-fold paying out at 12/1.

Both Teams to Score - Yes

Both teams to score has been a winning selection in 67% (six) of Chelsea Premier League games this season, rising to 75% away from home, while BTTS-Yes has landed in 44% (four) of Tottenham's league matches - 50% at home.

Spurs have only failed to score in one top-flight contest this term, a 1-0 home defeat to AFC Bournemouth on August 30, while Chelsea were held to a goalless draw by Crystal Palace at Stamford Bridge on the opening weekend of the campaign (August 17) but have found the net in their subsequent eight games in the competition.

Football Odds

Seven goals were scored in last season's corresponding fixture as Chelsea ran out 4-3 winners at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Both teams to score has landed in the last two head-to-heads at this ground, with the Blues winning 4-1 in 2023/24.

Marc Cucurella (CHE) Total Shots - 1+

Chelsea left-back Marc Cucurella is yet to score in the Premier League this season, but he notched five times in the competition last term, and is averaging the same number of shots per game (0.7).

The 27-year-old saw an effort blocked in the 13th minute of last Saturday's 2-1 defeat to Sunderland, the fifth top-flight fixture this season that he has recorded a shot in.

Premier League Odds

Cucurella shot once in last season's corresponding game in north London, and had an effort saved at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the 2023/24 campaign.

Enzo Fernandez (CHE) Total Shots on Target - 1+

Blues midfielder Enzo Fernandez, who scored home and away against Spurs last season, has struck three times in the top flight this term, most recently notching in a 3-1 defeat to Brighton & Hove Albion on September 27.

The 24-year-old failed to get on the scoresheet against Sunderland last weekend, but he did hit the target with three of his four shots, and his shots on target per game average now sits at one.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea Odds

Micky Van de Ven (TOT) Total Shots on Target - 1+

Spurs defender Micky van de Ven bagged a brace in last Sunday's 3-0 win at Everton, taking his season tally in the Premier League to three goals, having also struck in a 3-0 London derby victory over West Ham United on September 13.

The 24-year-old, who saw a right-footed effort saved by Chelsea goalkeeper Robert Sanchez in a 1-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge in April, may fancy his chances of scoring, or at least hitting the target, again on Saturday against a Blues side that looks vulnerable in defence.

Today's Football Fixtures

Enzo Maresca's men have conceded a headed shot on target to an opposition centre-back in their last two league matches. Last weekend, it was Sunderland's Daniel Ballard, and seven days prior, it was Nottingham Forest's Nikola Milenkovic.

Brentford's Kristoffer Ajer and Fulham's Joachim Andersen are two other big defenders to have seen headed efforts saved by Sanchez this season.
