Tottenham Hotspur
It’s another big night at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this evening (Monday 6 November, 8pm UK) as Chelsea come to N17 for what is our third consecutive London derby in the Premier League.
Managed by our former Head Coach Mauricio Pochettino, the Blues will be looking to climb up from 13th in the table while we’re defending the last remaining undefeated record in the league this season – victory would see us leapfrog Manchester City and move back into top spot.
