Fans will have to wait until Monday night for one of the biggest games of the Premier League weekend but it should be worth it as Tottenham host Chelsea.
Tottenham were the Premier League leaders heading into the weekend and have been in superb form under Ange Postecoglou, going unbeaten so far this season.
As for Chelsea, there were signs of them finding their way under Mauricio Pochettino - who is returning to Spurs for the first time since being sacked in 2019 - but a 2-0 loss at home to Brentford last weekend caused a lot of panic to set back in, with a good performance here needed to nip that in the bud.

Tottenham team news
Left-back Destiny Udogie was a doubt for this game but has pulled through to start in an otherwise familiar Spurs XI. Brennan Johnson gets the nod over Richarlison out wide.
While Postecoglou has got almost his whole favoured starting team available to him, the depth of the squad has taken a bit of a hit with injuries. Ryan Sessegnon, Ivan Perisic, Manor Solomon and Alfie Whiteman remain out.

Tottenham vs Chelsea score prediction
This is a fixture Tottenham have historically struggled in but they will feel they have a wonderful chance to get another home win over Chelsea and get one over former boss Pochettino.
They are top of the league for a reason and Chelsea still look a long way from a team that can really challenge towards the top of the table, so Tottenham simply have to be viewed as the most likely winners on Monday night.
Prediction: Tottenham 1-0 Chelsea
