Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur Preview

Chelsea host Tottenham Hotspur at Stamford Bridge on Saturday evening with the Blues fourth in the Premier League and Spurs down in 16th. Chelsea beat Everton 2-0 away last Saturday and sit on 13 points with a goal difference of +4, while Tottenham are on six points with -4 after a 3-1 home win over Coventry on Monday, which was their first league win since the opening weeks. The gap between them is seven points. Chelsea have won four of the last five meetings, and Spurs have not won a league game at Stamford Bridge in this record. Kick-off in west London is at 5:30pm UK time.

Chelsea have won three, drawn one and lost one of their last five, scoring 15 goals and conceding nine. Saturday’s 2-0 win away at Everton in the Premier League is the latest, and the only clean sheet of the run. Before that, Bournemouth were beaten 5-1 at home on 10 October, and Brentford won 3-0 against Chelsea on 18 September, the one defeat and the only game in which Chelsea failed to score. Further back, Hull held them to a 2-2 draw at home on 12 September, and Leeds were beaten 6-3 in the EFL Cup on 9 September. At Stamford Bridge, the three home games in the sample brought two wins and a draw, with 13 goals scored and six conceded. Chelsea have conceded in four of the five games.

Tottenham’s last five read W1 D2 L2, with seven goals scored and eight conceded. Monday’s 3-1 home win over Coventry in the Premier League is the latest and the only victory of the run. Before that, Manchester United held Spurs to a 1-1 draw at Old Trafford on 10 October, and Aston Villa won 3-2 at Tottenham on 19 September. Further back, Liverpool won 3-1 against Spurs in the EFL Cup on 15 September, and Everton were held to a goalless draw at home on 12 September. Spurs failed to score in only one of the five games, that 0-0, and they conceded in four. Their two home games in the sample at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium brought one win and one draw.

Chelsea hold a clear edge in the five meetings listed, with four wins to Tottenham’s one and no draws, and the goals read 9-6. The most recent was Tottenham’s 2-1 win away at Chelsea in a friendly on 1 August 2026, and before that Chelsea won 2-1 at home in the Premier League on 19 May 2026. All four league meetings went Chelsea’s way, including a 1-0 win at Stamford Bridge on 3 April 2025, so Spurs’ only win in the record came in a friendly. Chelsea won both league games in this sample at Stamford Bridge, and the sides have scored 15 goals in the five games.

Chelsea are fourth in the Premier League on 13 points with a goal difference of +4, and Tottenham are 16th on six points with -4. A win would take Spurs to nine points, level on points with Hull City and Ipswich Town.
