Team News

Chelsea will as usual miss the service of the veteran defender and club captain John Terry due to injury.

Marcos Alonso too received a knock last weekend against Stoke City but he is expected to come back fully fit against Spurs.

Alonso is an integral part of Antonio Conte's 3-4-3 formation. Conte does not have spare left wing-back which makes the Spaniard almost indispensable.

Tottenham Hotspur does not have any injury concerns as Toby Alderweireld is back in action and will be pairing up with Jan Vertonghen.

Mauricio Pochettino has his full first team at his disposal and thus, he would go all guns blazing against the Blues.
