"Biggest test so far". Mark Lawrenson states his prediction for Tottenham vs Chelsea

Tottenham are preparing to host Chelsea in the Premier League on Thursday, February 4. Currently, Jose Mourinho's side sit at the 6th place of the league table, while Thomas Tuchel's side are 7th with the same amount of points as Spurs, however, Tottenham have played one game less. Spurs' latest game was a 1-0 defeat to Brighton, while the Blues celebrated a 2-0 victory over Burnley. Ahead of the game, BBC football expert  Mark Lawrenson has stated his prediction. "This is Thomas Tuchel's biggest test so far as Chelsea manager, even with Tottenham on a poor run of form. "It seems to be the same old story with Spurs - Harry Kane gets injured, and they are not the same team without him. "Gareth Bale's arrival last September was meant to help change that, but he looks a shadow of his former self. "Bale has lost that zip which was his trademark and when I watch him play, it doesn't really seem like he is enjoying it." Lawrenson's score prediction: 1-1  source - BBC / Join us on Telegram
