Chelsea host Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Sunday, with the Blues enjoying a dominant recent record in this London derby. Chelsea have won their last six league meetings with Spurs, a run that stretches back to February 2023, and they are unbeaten in the fixture since 2018.
Head-to-Head Record
Overall, Chelsea have recorded 83 wins against Tottenham, while Spurs have claimed just 55 victories in the all-time series. Chelsea’s assured start to the season adds to the sense that a home win is the most likely outcome.
Spurs' Recent Form
Tottenham, however, showed signs of improvement in their last two outings. They played Manchester United off the park for the most part a fortnight ago, then registered their first Premier League win of the season last Monday against Coventry. That has raised questions over whether there is finally a little wind in the Tottenham sail.
The match could be exactly what Roberto De Zerbi and his men need, as they are unburdened by too much expectation in a crosstown stramash. The question remains whether Xabi Alonso’s entertainers will simply have too much in attack.
Kick-off is at 5.30pm BST.
