I agree 100% with you. They definitely got the quality players but I think they have the same problem as Manchester United, which is whenever a new player joins the team, he suddenly forgets how to perform well in the matches. I mean look at Mudryk, how he used to perform back in Shakhtar Donetsk dancing around the defenders, and now he can't seem to be doing much. Many players are injured as well but if we are talking about a team which won the UEFA Champions League a few years ago, they are doing worse than poor mate.
But my honest prediction will be that this match will be a draw considering their recent performances. Chelsea might win this match because they just won the match against Preston convincingly by 4-0.

Chelsea has many new players, but their performance is still far from what was expected. Pochettino is working hard to do something to make his system run smoothly, but it is never easy even if he has a wealth of experience with Tottenham in the Premier League. Pochettino has a tough task like raising a fallen elephant, so he needs time and the right tactics so that his elephant can rise.
However, in all likelihood, Pochettino will have to finish this season only being able to bring Chelsea to the top 10. Chelsea will not have the European competition its fans expect next season, but that is only a possibility should Pochettino fail in his first season.
It is not easy to coach a team with new players who have not played together for a long time, they will find it hard to understand each other pattern of play and moves. With what Pochettino has been doing recently at Chelsea, he will help his boys play as a team and understand each other very well.
