Chelsea host Tottenham at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, October 24, with kickoff at 5:30pm BST (5:30pm WAT), in a west London derby with sharply contrasting stakes. Chelsea arrive with form trending firmly upward, having moved up to fourth place courtesy of back-to-back wins, including a 2-0 victory over Everton following a 5-1 demolition of Bournemouth. Tottenham, by contrast, head into the match down in 16th after an uneven start to the season, searching for the kind of consistency that's eluded them so far under their new manager. Chelsea hold the historical edge too, leading the recent head-to-head with seven wins in the last ten meetings, and won the most recent encounter 2-1 back in May. With Chelsea also preparing for a League Cup trip to Liverpool in midweek, Saturday's derby offers a chance to build real momentum before a busy run of fixtures, while Tottenham will be desperate to arrest their slide against a rival they can ill afford to fall further behind in the table.
