Tottenham Hotspur, Recent FormHaving secured a 2-0 home win against West Ham United in their latest league match, Tottenham Hotspur will have a positive feeling ahead of this match. Their share of possession in that meeting was 57%, while racking up 16 shots along the way, 6 of which were on target, in contrast to West Ham United, who had 6 shots on goal with 1 on target.
When it comes to attacking power Antonio Conte will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 10 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. Having found the net in 5 of their last 6 matches, they will be pleased that their forward line have found some good and consistent form of late. With just 2 clean sheets in the last 6 matches at home, Conte will be worried about the defensive frailties within his team of late.
In terms of results, it's been a bit of a mixed bag for Spurs recently, having won 3 and lost 3 of their last 6 games.
On an individual basis, Harry Kane will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 17 goals in Tottenham Hotspur's 24 league games this season.
Chelsea, Recent FormAny Chelsea pre-match expectations for their last outing were misplaced, after an unexpected 1-0 home defeat by Southampton. They achieved 61% possession in that match and had 17 strikes at goal, with 5 hitting the target, up against Southampton's tally of 8 efforts at goal, 5 of which were on target.
Having conceded 4 goals and scored just 3 in their last 6 games, they have been very fortunate to pick up 6 points. Scoring goals away from home is something they have consistently achieved of late, having notched up goals in 4 of their last 6 matches on their travels. They will need to tighten up at the back, having failed to keep a clean sheet in all but 1 of their last 6 away games.
They've drawn their last 2 league games away from home, but their search for a league win on the road extends even further having gone 7 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
Raheem Sterling will be hoping to create problems for Tottenham Hotspur in this one, having scored 2 goals in his last 6 outings on the road for Chelsea.
Despite both teams hitting the net in their previous encounter, the match ended in a 2-2 draw.
The Blues will be looking to extend their current run of 3 clean sheets at The Tottenham Hotspur Stadium when they visit Spurs. In the past 5 away matches at Spurs in the league, The Blues have consistently found the net, scoring at least 1 goal in each of those encounters. In their past 5 meetings, Chelsea's defence has been pretty stingy, only conceding 2 goals, so The Lilywhites will have to take their chances when they come. We've seen plenty of goals from Chelsea when they've visited The Lilywhites in the league, in their last 3 games they've scored a total of 6 goals, which is an average of 2 per game.
When playing at home, Spurs have lost the last 3 times they've faced Chelsea in the league and have failed to win any of their last 3 encounters.
Spurs manager Antonio Conte has some team selection issues to consider ahead of this match. Rodrigo Bentancur (Cruciate ligament), Yves Bissouma (Ankle), Hugo Lloris (Knee) and Ryan Sessegnon (Hamstring) are all currently out of contention for this game.
Graham Potter has a number of injury concerns in his Chelsea squad to contend with: Armando Broja (Knee), N'Golo Kanté (Hamstring), Noni Madueke (Ankle), Édouard Mendy (Broken finger) and Christian Pulisic (Knee)
