Team News

Tottenham
Chelsea
  • Son Heung-Min was withdrawn at the break in Tottenham's 1-1 draw with Newcastle with a hamstring issue and joins Gareth Bale and Japhet Tanganga on the sidelines.
  • Moussa Sissoko was taken ill shortly before the stalemate and he is unlikely to feature here, but Sergio Reguilon is in line to make his debut.
  • Dele Alli wasn't part of the 18-man matchday squad on Sunday, and has supposedly been left out of the squad here, while Tanguy Ndombele, Steven Bergwijn and Erik Lamela are among those who may feature.
  • Edouard Mendy joined Chelsea from Rennes last week and is expected to make his debut here.
  • Billy Gilmour, Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic all miss out through injury, while Antonio Rudiger, who has been linked with a move away from Stamford Bridge, is set to miss out again.
  • Ben Chilwell is expected to start at left-back, while Cesar Azpilicueta will likely come on on the opposite flank.
  • Olivier Giroud and Callum Hudson-Odoi are among those set to feature from the off.

Prediction

  • Tottenham were forced to settle for a point against Newcastle on Sunday after Callum Wilson scored a late, contentious penalty. Nevertheless, the stalemate means Spurs are unbeaten in four, winning three, but have lost their last four meetings with Chelsea.
  • The Blues, too, drew at the weekend as they battled back from 3-0 down to draw 3-3 at West Brom. Frank Lampard's side have endured a mixed start to the campaign, winning two, drawing one and losing one, but can count on their solid record against their London rivals here.
  • Jose Mourinho would love to get one over his former employers, but we may see a draw in this London Derby on Tuesday night.

  • Don't trash Lampard. Frank is doing a fantastic job, he was just outclassed on the day.

  • @Kal_Friksen How about the previous matches ?

  • Chelsea on track to getting relegated with Lampard

  • Chelsea played the better of the two in the first half but only had one goal to show for it. Second half Chelsea seemed to have counted their chickens before they hatched. #Spursy

  • Five excellent penalties from Tottenham!

  • Reguilon seemed a little eager to impress and that lead to a couple mistakes in the first half, but the second half he was outstanding. Looks like Bale's enjoyed that too, happy for them.

  • @Real_Madrid thanks

  • another fail for clown Lampard, 250 milion euros thrown in the water! :DDD

  • Nice Mendy. 5/5 wrong direction

  • @alx30 He sucks, doesn't he? Kepa and Caballero, for that matter, are miles better.

  • Where is celso ?

  • @tuhin very likely rested for Thursday.

  • @tuhin resting, tottenham play in 2 days.

  • 5 shots tot ? omg..

  • @wladi83 11

  • Where is the Azpilicueta assist?

  • @waddo Wasn't one

  • @neumi17 how so? He was the final pass before the shot

  • @waddo It got deflected of a Tottenham player before

  • To produce only one shot on goal is not very impressive for a home team.

  • Ugly negative football from Mourinho

  • @benj is not ugly nor negative, if you only like high octane attacking football is your problem

  • Lol those deluded spuds comments �� you gonna get rekt

  • @7dana lmao

  • @7dana well...

  • @7dana LOL, not today.

  • Oof they spent how much on Reguillon? That was embarrassing.

  • @tkr He's usually quite good. Definitely better than Chilwell

  • Ofc captain Werner can suddenly score again here

  • Ht : X Ft : 2

  • 1 1

  • With one eye on Thursday, no home crowd, and Son injured it's difficult to see a win for Tottenham if Chelsea play their best 11. Hopefully, a first appearance of Reguilon can raise the home side's spirits. Tottenham 2-1 Chelsea.

  • Worrying that Dele isn't even on the bench :/

  • @MEHJones Mourinho has given up on him.

  • @Fromhell Seems that way

  • Spurs - Chelsea 1-0

  • Tottenham 8 matches in 4 days they will bottle this without son

  • @Ndt07 Mourinho bus parking masterclass.

  • Over 2.5 goals

  • @nexus747 I'll be shocked if Spurs don't win 2-0.

  • attention quand même a la surprise, c'est la coupe de la ligue, tottenham peut surprendre au moin pour le nul jouer double 12 ou N2

  • Chelsea win

  • Chelsea 2-1 Tottenham

  • @SagorSrkian Tottenham 1-2 Chelsea

  • 1-0

  • 1-2

  • I would wait for team news an hour before kick-off.Lampard may decide to play more first teamers after their poor draw at West brom.

  • I think Spurs won't care about this game, they have 4 games in 8 days

  • lol no way will we see a midfield 2 of Barkley and Jorginho in a game like the one predicted
