Spursvs.Chelsea

The Blues will enter the match off the back of a 5-1 victory over struggling Southampton in England's top flight.

Chelsea's excellent form has seen them rise into second spot in the Premier League table, level on points with third-placed Arsenal and seven from the leaders Liverpool, who dropped two points against Newcastle United on Wednesday night.
