Chelsea team news: Injury, suspension list vs. Tottenham Hotspur

Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur.

Chelsea will be looking to return to winning ways in the Premier League when they welcome Tottenham Hotspur to Stamford Bridge on Sunday afternoon.

Thomas Tuchel's side suffered a 1-0 defeat to leaders Manchester City in the league on Saturday before drawing at Brighton & Hove Albion on Tuesday, which has left them 12 points behind Pep Guardiola's side.

The Blues have now only won one of their last seven Premier League games during a disappointing run of form, but they have already beaten Tottenham twice this month in the EFL Cup.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Chelsea's latest injury and suspension news ahead of the clash with Spurs, who won a five-goal thriller at Leicester City on Wednesday.
