Tottenham Hotspur vs Chelsea: Chelsea’s Predicted Lineup against Spurs | Starting 11

A high-billed London derby is on the cards for the upcoming weekend with Tottenham Hotspur playing hosts to Chelsea in Premier League action.

Thomas Tuchel’s Blues narrowly edged out their Champions League opening fixture opponents Zenit in a 1-0 scoreline which was sealed courtesy of a goal from the man in form Romelu Lukaku.

Here is how Tuchel is expected to set up his Blues starting eleven for the weekend outing –

3-4-2-1

Edouard Mendy retains his spot between the sticks for Chelsea despite an extended run of fixtures across all competitions for the Senegalese shot-stopper.

Cesar Azpilicueta and Andreas Christensen had returned for the Zenit clash but expect Thiago Silva to be given a look-in for the upcoming game against Spurs.

N’Golo Kante remains an injury concern for Thomas Tuchel which had meant that Jorginho partnered Mateo Kovacic last time around with new signing Saul Niguez dropping down to the bench.

The high-flying Stamford Bridge returnee Romelu Lukaku will be backed to lead the line for the visitors but Hakim Ziyech could make way for Timo Werner to come into the XI with the latter yet to be handed a start in league football since Lukaku’s arrival at the scene.
