Ex-Chelsea fullback Johnson confident of top 4 finish for Blues

Glen Johnson has predicted Chelsea will finish within the top-four.

The Blues hold a slender one point lead over Spurs ahead of the two sides meeting at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

"I think they'll have enough [for a top four finish]," former Blues fullback Johnson told Sky Sports.

"I said at the start of the season that fourth would be an unbelievable season from where Lamps picked them up.

"I think looking at where they were in the summer, getting anywhere near fourth would've been a good season. Forget home and away form, I think they've had a great season.

"Continue the way they are I think they will get fourth anyway and I don't think they'll need to rely on the City ban to be upheld to qualify for the Champions League."
