Chelsea - Spurs, 1:30 CET??? And we played Chelsea on Monday evening?! Excelent!
Anyway, do we want any of them to win? I think draw might be best for us. With 2 red cards for each team. Meh, make that 3.
Looking forward hearing standing ovations from SB when Jose comes out.

Both teams were shit this week, bound to improve a bit, so I predict a goal fest, 4-4, in the Chelsea - Tottenham match.

Hope Newcastle and Leicester win today as well.

Jose Mourinho
Looks like Jose went with three at the back with Tanganga and Davies at wing-backs to counter Chelsea´s formation. Especially Tanganga on the right side will have to contain the forward runs of Alonso. Then with Winks, Ndombele and Lo Celso you have three creative players in the middle of the pitch which can make quick transitions to Bergwijn and Lucas as fast players up top who can hit Chelsea on the counter. I like the formation, but a lot will depend on the three players in the middle to keep possession and carry the ball forward which especially Ndombele and Lo Celso should be perfectly capable of.

I would be perfectly happy with a draw since Chelsea seem to have more difficult fixtures remaining with both Liverpool and City still to play. Also, they seem to have some negative momentum with which a draw wouldn´t help.

Chelsea look even more defensive, and they are at home. Looks like another Mourinho masterclass coming up.

State of those two teams. With Bruno settling in I'm confident of finishing 4th.

We have to go on a winning run now, no excuses.

I fancy a 0-0 draw between Chelsea and Spurs which woud be ideal for us.

Chelsea (the saviours of football) fan.
I'm going to miss most of this game because the baggage handlers are shit at Stansted Airport and I'm on a train replacment bus.

No scores or shit posts like "FFS Spurs" (which tell me nothing about what happened) please.

Interesting game. Not sure whether both will just cancel each other out or it will be mad 3-3 style game.

Both teams need to not concede many corners as they are both rubbish at defending them.

I’d like to hope for a Chelsea loss, but we all know what that means for our game tomorrow.

Giroud starting at home finally, will see if it makes any difference.

We've been dreadful at home this season, need start turning it around today. Pivotal game for our season I think.

Lucas never lived up to the hype he had in 2012, but I still wished we’d signed him. Great player on his day.

I’ll be honest, until José joined Spurs I had no idea they were meant to be rivals.

Reece James looks like the lovechild of Rude Gullit and Eddie Hearn
