Ben Foster, the astute football pundit, has now ventured into the realm of prophecy, gazing into the crystal ball to prognosticate the outcome of the forthcoming London derby between Tottenham and Chelsea, scheduled for next week.
The stage is set for a riveting showdown on Monday night in the Premier League, where the visiting Chelsea outfit shall wear the cloak of underdogs. Spurs, reinvigorated under the stewardship of Ange Postecoglou, presently perch atop the league’s summit, showcasing an alluring brand of football. Whispers from the sidelines even suggest they could mount a legitimate challenge for the title this season, resonating with the ears of neutrals.
Conversely, Chelsea, having undergone a managerial transition in the summer with the appointment of Mauricio Pochettino, find themselves navigating the labyrinth of inconsistency, languishing in the 11th spot on the league table as the weekend approaches.
The narrative crescendos with Pochettino’s poignant return to Spurs, where he once commanded the dugout for an illustrious five-year tenure. In a dramatic twist of fate, he now finds himself in the away dugout, steering the helm of Chelsea, their fierce rivals.
Intriguingly, Ben Foster, in a candid declaration to the That’s Football YouTube channel, has cast his lot with Spurs, predicting their triumph. Foster’s rationale revolves around Chelsea’s perceived inconsistency and the sporadic lapses that occasionally manifest in their performances. He perceives Spurs as a team burdened with immense pressure and media scrutiny, poised to exploit the chinks in Chelsea’s armor.
While Chelsea’s home struggles at Stamford Bridge have been well-documented, a beacon of hope emanates from their away form, where they appear more resolute, particularly when confronted with the onslaught of attacking opponents. With just four away matches in the current league season, they’ve accrued a commendable seven points, including victories over Burnley and Fulham, alongside a draw at Bournemouth. However, it’s important to note a solitary loss at West Ham back in August.
Adding a touch of optimism for the upcoming clash, the potential return of Mykhailo Mudryk to the Chelsea side is on the horizon. Chelsea’s official website recently announced that Mudryk has been participating in “full team training” in anticipation of the Monday showdown.
