Calum McFarlane has said Chelsea do not need added motivation ahead of tomorrow\u2019s London derby against Tottenham Hotspur.<\/strong><\/p>\n Chelsea face Spurs with both teams in desperate need of the points. A win for the Blues at Stamford Bridge will lift them into eighth, a position that will secure European football for next season.<\/p>\n Spurs sit just two points above the Premier League relegation places and know a point will all-but-secure their top-flight status.<\/p>\n Speaking at his pre-match press conference, McFarlane said his team are ready to bounce back from their weekend FA Cup final defeat and show \u2018their fight and their heart\u2019.<\/p>\n \u201cI think the players have shown in the last two games that their fight and their heart has been questioned at times. I think they\u2019ve shown in the last two games that for me that\u2019s not an issue.<\/p>\n \u201cEveryone knows the rivalry between Chelsea and Tottenham, but ultimately both teams have got a lot to play for. So I don\u2019t think we\u2019re going to have to do anything extra special to motivate the lads. We need six points from our next two games. I think they need a point to almost guarantee safety.<\/p>\n \u201cBoth teams are fighting at different parts of the table, but both teams are fighting for the points, so we shouldn\u2019t need to add any extra motivation, but it will naturally be there with a London derby between Chelsea and Tottenham.\u201d<\/p>\n Read \u2013\u00a0McFarlane says Alonso appointment exciting for Chelsea<\/strong><\/p>\n See more \u2013\u00a0Why Xabi Alonso preferred Chelsea to Liverpool<\/strong><\/p>\n Facebook | Instagram | Twitter<\/a> | YouTube | TikTok<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\nMcFarlane: Everyone knows the rivalry between Chelsea and Tottenham<\/strong><\/h4>\n
