Jamie Carragher predicts where Tottenham, Chelsea will finish

Jamie Carragher believes Chelsea now have one hand on the Premier League trophy after last weekend’s results.

The Blues took another giant stride towards winning the top-flight trophy on Sunday with a thumping 3-0 win over Everton in a fixture where many had been expecting a slip-up from the Blues.

Tottenham kept up the pressure on Chelsea by beating Arsenal 2-0 at White Hart Lane on Sunday afternoon.

The west London side are currently four points ahead of their local rivals heading into this weekend’s round of games.

But former Liverpool defender Carragher feels that Chelsea are on course to win the title this season.

Speaking on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football, Carragher said: “I think it was a big win for Chelsea and they’ve almost got one hand on the trophy.

“I think they’ll know it was a big chance for them to gain something on Chelsea. They lost last week in the semi-final so maybe it was two opportunities. There’s still a few games to go, so who knows?”

Chelsea host Middlesbrough at Stamford Bridge on Monday night, while Tottenham travel to West Ham United in the Friday Night Football.

Chelsea are chasing a domestic double this season and will take on Arsenal in the FA Cup final at Wembley later this month.
