Tottenham’s rollercoaster season took another dramatic turn when they fell below Bournemouth into tenth place with a 1-0 loss away to the Cherries during the week. It led to some ugly post-game scenes where head coach Ange Postecoglou again confronted booing supporters. He’ll have to keep his side level-headed however, as either side of a trip to last-placed Southampton, they’re hosting title challengers Chelsea and Liverpool, so a defining period awaits.

Cracks have even begun to emerge at their home venue, which has lost its ‘fortress’ status since they began the season with seven wins from their first eight home games across all competitions. Since then they’ve failed to defeat Ipswich (L 2-1), Roma (D 2-2) and Fulham (D 1-1) on home soil, leaving them in a vulnerable position against one of the Premier League’s best current travellers.

In stark contrast with Spurs fans, the travelling Chelsea supporters gleefully proclaimed “we’ve got our Chelsea back” after their team overtook Liverpool as the most prolific goalscorers of the Premier League season (31) with a 5-1 midweek demolition of Southampton. It turbocharged their title challenge by extending what is the league’s second-longest undefeated run (W4, D2), and with their last two wins coming by large margins, they’re primed to extend their recent domination of this matchup.

Chelsea have won 11 of the last 15 H2Hs across all competitions, the majority of them being accompanied by 2+ goal margins such as the 4-1 (away) and 2-0 (home) double last Premier League season. They bring into this edition a formidable away record of five wins from seven Premier League away trips (D1, L1), though with all five wins coming against clubs starting the weekend in the bottom half of the standings, this could prove to be a sterner test, depending on what Tottenham side turn up.

Players to watch: After five assists in his last eight competitive games for Spurs, Dejan Kulusevski may be keen to open the scoring himself as he did when they hosted Chelsea last season. Seven of Chelsea’s last eight league goals came from different players, including Noni Madueke who has registered four of his last five league goals in away victories.

Hot streak: The pre-match favourite did not lose any of Chelsea’s 14 matches this Premier League season (W10, D4).
