da betano casino: Arsenal legend Ian Wright believes that Tottenham Hotspur have the edge heading into Saturday’s FA Cup semi-final against Chelsea.
da dobrowin: The tie is nicely poised given that both these clubs are also fighting for the Premier League title.
Chelsea have led the way at the top of the standings for five months, but Spurs have cut down the gap to just four points after winning their last seven top-flight matches on the trot.
League affairs will be put to the side this weekend, though, as the London clubs go head to head for a spot in the FA Cup final.
Chelsea would have been early favourites when the tie was drawn but they will arrive at Wembley on the back of a 2-0 loss to Manchester United.
In contrast, Mauricio Pochettino’s young team will be full of confidence given that they hit four past Bournemouth at the weekend.
In fact, Spurs have found the back of the net 22 times during their winning run in the league.
Wright, who spent seven years of his playing career at Arsenal, has given his verdict ahead of the game.
He told BBC 606:
“As we’re sitting here now, Tottenham are favourites for that game.”
