Latest Tottenham vs Chelsea team news
Tottenham are facing the most serious injury crisis in the Premier League, with more than 10 players experiencing fitness issues. Yves Bissouma (ankle), Kota Takai (ankle), Dominic Solanke (ankle), Radu Dragusin (knee), Dejan Kulusevski (knee), James Maddison (knee) and Ben Davies (thigh) are all certain to be absent.
Cristian Romero (groin), Destiny Udogie (knee), Archie Gray (calf), and Wilson Odobert (abdomen) will undergo further tests ahead of the derby, but manager Thomas Frank confirmed that goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario – who missed the defeat to Newcastle – is ready to return to the starting lineup.
Good news for Spurs is that Micky van de Ven – who was rested midweek – will return to the defense, while Mohammed Kudus, Mathys Tel and Randal Kolo Muani are all likely to start in attack.
Chelsea's attack suffered another blow when Liam Delap was suspended for one match after receiving two yellow cards in the game against Wolves. Manager Maresca called the red card "very stupid".
Delap will be absent along with five other players: Cole Palmer (groin), Dario Essugo (thigh), Benoit Badiashile (muscle), Levi Colwill (knee), and Mykhaylo Mudryk (suspended due to doping violations).
Maresca previously paired Joao Pedro and Marc Guiu as strikers against Sunderland, but Andrey Santos is likely to be given a starting opportunity. Meanwhile, Jamie Gittens – who scored and provided two assists midweek – may be replaced by Alejandro Garnacho, who is in better form after being rested.

Latest football match prediction: Tottenham vs Chelsea
Thomas Frank's first chance at winning a domestic title slipped away, as Tottenham – still displaying their usual inconsistent form – were completely outplayed by Newcastle's aerial prowess at St James' Park on Wednesday night.
Two headers from Fabian Schar and the "giant" Nick Woltemade were enough to help Newcastle eliminate Tottenham in the fourth round of the English League Cup (EFL Cup) – a real shock for the London team just days after their resounding victory in the Premier League.
Earlier, Tottenham – as Europa League champions – became the first team to beat Everton at their new home ground, Hill Dickinson Stadium. Dutch defender Micky van de Ven shone with an impressive brace, before Pape Sarr contributed to Spurs' fifth Premier League victory of the season.
A run of just one win in their last five matches isn't exactly a pretty picture for Tottenham, but their position in the league table somewhat compensates for that: they are currently third, behind only Arsenal and Bournemouth, and five points behind leaders Arsenal after nine rounds.
However, Spurs' home form is a major concern. They have only managed to secure 1 point in their last 3 matches at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, where only Burnley have suffered a defeat this season.
Meanwhile, Enzo Maresca's Chelsea are enjoying a run of three consecutive away wins – although their most recent victory was hard-fought. Against bottom-of-the-table Wolves, Chelsea nearly conceded a spectacular comeback in the League Cup, but ultimately secured a 4-3 victory.
Despite playing with ten men – with Liam Delap receiving the familiar red card – the youthful "Blues" still managed to create a historic milestone: for the first time in English football history, a Premier League team had four players under the age of 21 score in a single match.
However, even those talented young players couldn't prevent Chelsea from suffering a surprising 1-2 defeat against Sunderland in the Premier League, marking their third loss in the last five rounds and dropping them to ninth place in the table. Historically, Chelsea have only twice lost four matches in the first ten rounds of a Premier League season.
Nevertheless, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium remains a "promised land" for Chelsea. Their dramatic 4-3 victory last season was their fifth win there – more than any other away team in the Premier League.
