The Premier League is back in action with another set of matches this weekend as Tottenham Hotspur take on Enzo Maresca's Chelsea side in an important clash at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday. Both teams can pack a punch on their day and will want to win this game.

Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea Preview

Chelsea are currently in second place in the Premier League standings and have been in excellent form so far this season. The Blues thrashed Southampton by a comprehensive 5-1 margin in their previous game and will look to achieve a similar scoreline this weekend.

Tottenham Hotspur, on the other hand, are in 10th place in the league table at the moment and have not been at their best this season. The North London outfit slumped to a shock 1-0 defeat at the hands of Bournemouth this week and will need to bounce back in this match.
