Tottenham have had a classic season for Mourinho’s teams in recent years. The team had a very good start. In the first part of the season, Spurs were in the top and played well against strong opponents (defeat of Manchester United, victories over City and Arsenal). At some point, thoughts crept in that Londoners could seriously wedge themselves into the fight for the championship. But then there was a decline. In January and February, Tottenham had a stretch in which they suffered five defeats in six matches. This pushed the team out of the top 4. The Londoners are now sixth, but they are only two points behind the fourth Chelsea. But also Liverpool and West Ham are still competing for a place in the top 4. The fight is in full swing, so it is undesirable for the “spurs” to lose points. In the last rounds, Mourinho’s wards alternate victories with defeats. In the 29th round, the team beat Aston Villa (2:0), but before that they lost to Arsenal in the derby (1:2).
Like CSK, Delhi Capitals (DC) surprised with their performance in the 2020 IPL season, but in a positive way, as they made their way to the first-ever IPL final, where they lost to Mumbai Indians (MI) and finished the tournament in second place. Ahead of the IPL 2021, the Delhi Capitals suffered a huge loss in captain Sreias Iyer, who was eliminated due to injury. Thus, Rishab Pant will have to lead the team at IPL 2021. Nonetheless, DC are still strong, as they include players such as Shikhar Dhawan, Ajinkya Rahane, Prithvi Shaw, Shimron Hetmyer etc in the batting, Kagiso Rabada, Anrich Nortje, Ishant Sharma etc in the pace bowling, Ravichandran Ashwin and Amit Mishra in the spin bowling along with the quality all-rounders like Marcus Stoinis, Axar Patel and Chris Woakes. The performance of the leaders Steven Smith, Sam Billings, Tom Curran and Umesh Yadav will be a good strengthening of the team. More IPL predictions can be obtained from the link provided.
