What is the team news?
Christian Pulisic and Callum Hudson-Odoi are long-term absentees for Chelsea, while the groin injury that N'Golo Kante picked up in the Monday night loss to Manchester United is expected to keep him out of this weekend's fixture at least.
Tammy Abraham is a "maybe", Frank Lampard confirmed last week, which means it will be a toss-up between continuing with Michy Batshuayi or giving Olivier Giroud his first start since the end of November.
Ruben Loftus-Cheek has returned to training but is still returning to match fitness.
For Spurs, their issues are up front. Harry Kane and Moussa Sissoko remain sidelined and the news this week that Son Heung-Min required surgery on his arm and could be out for the rest of the season was a hammer blow.

What are Telegraph writers saying?
Frank Lampard will come under serious scrutiny should Chelsea fail to secure a Champions League spot this season, writes Chief Football Correspondent, Jason Burt.
Questions have been raised about Lampard’s management of his squad – perhaps for the first time since he succeeded Maurizio Sarri last summer – with a feeling that, while the head coach may not want Arrizabalaga in the long-term, he should surely persevere with the world’s most expensive goalkeeper for now.
Chelsea paid £71.6million for the 25-year-old Spain international and if he does not play it will be more difficult to sell him, should it come to that.
Lampard also said prior to the United game that Arrizabalaga had responded well to being dropped against Leicester City, before the winter break, but continued with 38-year-old free transfer Willy Caballero.
What are the odds?
Chelsea - 4/5
Draw - 3/1
Tottenham - 7/2
What is our prediction?
Both sides are struggling, both with form and injuries, but Tottenham's malaise seems to run slightly deeper than that of Chelsea. Mourinho is desperate for a goal-scorer, but the chances of him finding one before the trip to Stamford Bridge are next to nothing. A London derby, between two old adversaries, would be the perfect time for Chelsea to rise out of their mid-season slump, too.
Chelsea 1-0 Tottenham
