Chelsea v Spurs (Sunday: 12.45 BBC1)
You have to go back to February 1990 for Tottenham’s last win at the Bridge. Sporting Index reckons their waiting will have to continue and predict Chelsea to win this by a 1.1-1.3 goal margin. However, Spurs did win 2-1 when they met in November at the Lane, and their last two visits have been close run affairs. Having scored 14 goals in their last four games, Sporting Index predict Spurs to score 0.7-0.9 goals. Their style will no doubt make it an open game and Sporting Index predict 2.6-2.8 total goals. So who will contribute to that total? Sporting Index have looked at the form men with Drogba finding the net in six of his last eight fixtures. His goal minutes spread is priced at 23-26 minutes which could stir up interest amongst the punters. Berbatov has scored in his last three away games and Sporting Index quote his goal minutes at 7-10 minutes. Last season’s Premiership fixture saw an injury time winner which would’ve given huge relief to buyers on the total goal minutes market. Sporting Index are quoting a spread of 130-140 minutes this time around.
