Six successive wins has lifted Chelsea to the top of the table, though they could be third by the time this match kicks off. However, they will be confident of topping the Premier League by the close of play on Saturday having not lost a league game at home to Tottenham since 1990.

Chelsea don’t look like conceding at present and should inflict further misery upon an out of sorts Spurs side. Naijabet.com
