Tottenham Hotspur are set to host Chelsea at White Hart Lane this evening.
Danny Murphy has told the Alan Brazil Sports Breakfast, which was broadcast on 4th January, that he believes Chelsea will beat Tottenham Hotspur at White Hart Lane this evening.
Chelsea travel to Spurs looking to set a Premier League record of 14 successive victories.
The Blues can move eight points clear at the top of the Premier League standings if they can pick up a win, but Tottenham are in great form.
Spurs have won their last two matches 4-1 – against Southampton and Watford – and need the three points themselves.
Mauricio Pochettino’s side will leapfrog Arsenal in the top flight table, and move to within seven points of Chelsea if they beat their London rivals.
However, Murphy believes that it will be Chelsea who are celebrating victory at full-time, as they look unstoppable at this moment in time.
“I actually fancy Chelsea,” Murphy said when asked to predict if his former side would stop Chelsea’s brilliant run of form tonight. “If Tottenham go after them, the way Hazard and Costa are playing, I fear they could do them. The way Chelsea are playing they just look like they could turn anybody over.”
