Chelsea vs Tottenham LIVE: Kick-off time, how to watch, confirmed team news, goal and score updates
Xabi Alonso will be watching on as Chelsea take on Tottenham in their penultimate Premier League fixture of the season this evening.
Alonso, who signed a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge at the weekend, will be eager to see his new squad in action against their fierce rivals Spurs. Whether the Spaniard will be in attendance for the match in west London remains to be seen, but one way or another, he will be tuning in.
Chelsea still have an outside shot of finishing in the Champions League, but need plenty of things to go their way if that is to be the case. Either way, the Blues need to beat Tottenham tonight – not only for their European bid, but for the sake of the supporters.
With the London derby kicking off just over 72 hours after the final whistle of Saturday’s FA Cup final, interim head coach Calum McFarlane has a number of tough decisions to make in relation to the line-up he chooses. With that being said, Bobby Vincent has a go at predicting the XI Chelsea players taking to the pitch against Spurs.
