Chelsea are justifying favouritism, sitting pretty top of the Premier League table, but some black clouds have appeared over Stamford Bridge. The Blues have been banned by FIFA from signing any new players until January 2011, after investigation into the signing of French winger, Gael Kaluta. This ban could hit Chelsea hard come January if they suffer injuries, and are unable to draft reinforcements, but at the moment Chelsea will just look to keep winning, with the next game away to Stoke on September 12. Premiership Betting - Action Returns After World Cup Break
There is a short break from Premiership betting owing to World Cup qualifiers, but the action returns on September 12th. With some players involved in two international fixtures for their country in five days, Premiership bettors will be well advised to check injury news before placing their bets on the Premiership for matchday five.
Chelsea and Spurs have retained 100% records, but the Blues have a great chance to pull clear. Chelsea play away at the Britannia Stadium, while Tottenham host Man Utd. Stoke are no push-overs at home with a resolute defence, but Chelsea have scored 10 goals in four games.
Tottenham's European ambitions would be given a huge boost were they able to continue their winning streak at Man Utd's expense, but with this game ending a draw in the last two seasons, a stalemate looks the likeliest outcome.
