Chelsea travel to north London this evening to take on Tottenham as Jose Mourinho and his players try to rebuild momentum in the top flight against a club from the Portuguese’s past.

Prediction
It will be interesting to see how Chelsea fare here, having had a little bit more time to work with Tuchel. Spurs need a big response after back-to-back defeats – one justifiably against Liverpool but one less forgivably to Brighton – but this isn’t exactly a ‘gimme’. Tottenham 0-1 Chelsea.
