Team news
Chelsea are likely to be without both Thibaut Courtois and Victor Moses on Saturday.
Gary Cahill, Diego Costa and Marcos Alonso are all minor doubts but should be fit to start here.
Spurs have a big dilemma as to whether start Heung Min Son in a 4-2-3-1 or revert back to a three man defence.
The South Korean international could miss out here, with Victor Wanyama likely to return to the side.
Expected starting XI’s
Chelsea (3-4-3): Begovic; Zouma, Luiz, Cahill; Azpilicueta, Matic, Kante, Alonso; Pedro, Costa, Hazard
Tottenham (3-4-2-1): Lloris; Dier, Alderweireld, Vertonghen; Walker, Wanyama, Dembele, Davies; Alli, Eriksen, Kane
