Chelseawill be clashing against Tottenham Hotspur in the game week 15 of the Premier League. It promises to be an exciting game. The Blues are currently flying high in the 2nd spot in the league table. Meanwhile, Spurs are their usual self once again with their inconsistent performances. They have managed to win the most unexpected games. At the same time, they have lost when they should have really won. Nonetheless, we can now expect a must-watch encounter between the two. The Blues have been in great form away from home this season. So, it will be interesting to see if they can keep their momentum going and earn some points against Spurs.
Man-to-man marking could be the key
Spurs like playing from the back. They have done it time-and-time again this season. So, the Blues will have to mark their men and press high up the field. Although if they do not win the ball, they will be vulnerable on the counter. At the same time, Tottenham Hotspur have got the pace up front to hurt Chelsea at the back. They did something similar against Man City and ended up winning 4-0. Stopping Dejan Kulusevski will be key for the Blues. Rome Lavia could be the man to get the job done for them.
Spurs play out of the back no matter what. A good M2M press helps us win the ball high, Spurs's threat on the counter is apparent if we don't get the ball though, That's the threat as I mentioned so it has to be aggressive when we do press M2M.

Will Chelsea come out on top against Tottenham Hotspur?
As far as Premier League goes, nothing can be said for certain. Especially when two heavyweights as such are going head-to-head. It’s not just a game between two good teams but also two great coaches. Tottenham Hotspur are a great team without a doubt, but the way they play, Chelsea might end up exploiting them. As a result, even away from home, chances are that the Blues might come away with the win. Fans will be keen to see their team continue their winning run and maintain their consistent run of performances.
I believe, Chelsea will have too much for Spurs, the way Spurs play fits Chelsea's style to exploit and I don't see how they keep them out especially with the defensive injuries.
