Chelsea’s revival under Enzo Maresca continues to gather pace and the Blues head into this London derby with Tottenham Hotspur looking for a fifth successive win all competitions.
Spurs have troubles in defence with Micky van de Ven and Ben Davies set to miss out and Cristian Romero only just returning to training. Keeper Guglielmo Vicario, striker Richarlison and winger Wilson Odobert are also out while midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur is suspended.
