Pundits line up to predict Chelsea vs Tottenham result

Several leading pundits have been giving their verdicts ahead of Chelsea's Premier League clash with Tottenham, and the overall mood does not look kind to Spurs.

Football365 reports that Jamie Carragher and Alan Shearer have both offered predictions for this weekend's fixtures, including the Chelsea vs Tottenham meeting, as part of their wider look at the Premier League weekend (Football365). Football.London goes further on the same pair, stating that Shearer and Carragher "agree" on their score prediction for the match, framing it as a game in which Roberto De Zerbi will be looking to record a win against Xabi Alonso's side (Football.London).

Spurs Web adds another voice to the mix, reporting that BBC Sport pundit Chris Sutton has also shared his score prediction, and that his forecast points to "more misery for Tottenham" as they prepare for the trip to face their London rivals on Saturday (Spurs Web).

While none of the three outlets print the exact scorelines predicted, there is clear agreement across the board that the pundits expect a tough afternoon for Tottenham. Football.London's framing of Shearer and Carragher being in agreement (Football.London) lines up with Football365's confirmation that both pundits have made their calls for this specific fixture (Football365), while Spurs Web's report on Sutton suggests his outlook is similarly downbeat for Spurs (Spurs Web).

Taken together, the reports paint a picture of a pundit consensus building against Tottenham ahead of the weekend's London derby, with De Zerbi's Chelsea favoured by those offering predictions and Alonso's Spurs side expected to come away with little to celebrate, according to the forecasts cited by all three outlets.
