Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea: Tottenham Hotspur will be up against Chelsea in the Semi-Final Leg 2 of the EFL Cup 2021-22 on Thursday, 13th January 2022 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Chelsea completely dominated the proceedings in the Semifinal leg 1 against the Spurs. They were exceptional throughout the game to script a remarkable 2-0 win courtesy of a strike from Kai Havertz in the fifth minute followed by an own goal from Ben Davies in the 34th minute. It was a complete and all-round performance by the Blues to take a much-needed lead as they now move to Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for the leg 2 clash.
On the other hand, Tottenham Hotspur’s five-match unbeaten run finally ended with that defeat against Chelsea. They weren’t at their best as they could manage only two shots on target in the whole game. There were some inspiring performances from Hojbjerg, Sanchez, and Lloris but the Spurs failed to deliver collectively. They will now aim to make a strong comeback at their home turf and make their way into the finals.
