After the defeat to Bournemouth, Tottenham received a lot of criticism for their lackluster performance. They were lucky not to concede another goal due to their disjointed play. Coach Ange Postecoglou's team fell to 10th place in the rankings, 6 points behind the group with a ticket to the Champions League.
In the last 6 matches in all competitions, Spurs have only won 1 match, although they had moments of sublimation and beat Man City with a score of 4-0.
At home, Tottenham have failed to win their last three games, despite facing lower-rated opponents like Roma, Fulham and Ipswich Town. Postecoglou has yet to find a consistent winning formula.
In London derbies alone, Tottenham have won just four of their 13 games against fellow city sides, losing seven.
On the other side, Chelsea just won 5-1 against Southampton. They are currently second in the rankings and 7 points behind Liverpool.
The Blues have won all four of their last games, and their busy summer transfer window will certainly be the envy of many fans. While many teams have been hit by injuries, Chelsea's squad remains solid.
Traveling to Tottenham's field with this form, coach Enzo Maresca and his team are completely confident as they have won against Spurs in 5 of the last 7 away matches. Chelsea's energetic attacking stars will be a big threat to the weak defense of the Roosters.
Expected lineup
Tottenham: Forster; Porro, Gray, Dragusin, Udogie; Kulusevski, Bissouma, Sarr; Johnson, Solanke, Son
Chelsea: Sanchez; Gusto, Disasi, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Sancho, Palmer, Neto; Jackson
