TOT vs CHE Dream11 Prediction: In the English League Cup, Tottenham Hotspur will be squaring off against Chelsea at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Wednesday night. There were frustrating draws for both of these teams last weekend as Tottenham conceded a late equaliser from a controversial penalty decision for handball against Newcastle, while Chelsea went 3-0 down to West Brom only to fight back to 3-3. While the League Cup may be down the priority list for both teams, they will still take this game relatively seriously and will be keen to lose to a London rival. With Spurs having a Europa League to contend with on Thursday also, they may rotate more than Chelsea. Frank Lampard will make changes but he will still field a very strong team such is the depth of his squad these days. He has plenty to work on and there is a strong case for his team taking this match more seriously than Spurs.

Who will win TOT vs CHE Today Match Prediction Football
What to expect from this match given the unusual circumstances in which it will be played, just two days after Tottenham’s last outing, is difficult to guess. Chelsea have more rest both before and after the match and should be buoyed by their epic comeback at the weekend, so we can see Lampard getting one over his former mentor Mourinho once again – albeit against a much-changed Tottenham team. We predict a 2-0 win for Chelsea in today match prediction.
