A mouth-watering London derby between Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea round off the Premier League weekend on Sunday.
Premier League fans will be treated to a London derby of epic proportions on Sunday when Tottenham Hotspur looks to jump-start its season at home to an in-form Chelsea side. Enzo Maresca has led the Blues on a sterling run of form so far this season, and a third win in as many meetings with Spurs could take his side even closer to the top of the table entering a key stage of the campaign. Meanwhile, pressure is building on Ange Postecoglou at Tottenham, who is looking to clinch a win at home for the first time in more than a month against one of its fiercest rivals.
