Latest Tottenham vs Chelsea squad information
Tottenham are facing the Premier League's biggest injury crisis, with more than 10 players out with 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 miss out.
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 goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario – who missed the defeat to Newcastle – is ready to return to the starting line-up.
The good news for Spurs is that Micky van de Ven – who was rested in midweek – will return to defence, while Mohammed Kudus, Mathys Tel and Randal Kolo Muani are all likely to start up front.
Chelsea’s attack suffered another blow when Liam Delap was suspended for one match after picking up two yellow cards against Wolves. Manager Maresca called the red card “very stupid”.
Delap will be absent along with five other names: Cole Palmer (groin), Dario Essugo (thigh), Benoit Badiashile (muscle), Levi Colwill (knee) and Mykhaylo Mudryk (suspension due to a doping violation).
Maresca started Joao Pedro and Marc Guiu as a striker against Sunderland, but Andrey Santos is likely to start, while Jamie Gittens – who scored and provided two assists midweek – could be replaced by Alejandro Garnacho, who is fresh after a rest.
Latest expected lineup for Tottenham vs Chelsea

Latest Tottenham vs Chelsea football commentary
Thomas Frank's first chance of winning a domestic trophy fell through, as Tottenham – in their usual erratic form – were completely outclassed by Newcastle's aerial prowess at St James' Park on Wednesday night.
Two headers from Fabian Schar and “giant” Nick Woltemade were enough to help the “Magpies” eliminate Tottenham in the fourth round of the English League Cup (EFL Cup) – a real shock for the London team just days after a resounding victory in the Premier League.
Earlier, Tottenham – as Europa League champions – became the first team to beat Everton at their new home, Hill Dickinson Stadium. Dutch centre-back Micky van de Ven shone with an impressive double, before Pape Sarr helped Spurs to their fifth Premier League win of the season.
A run of just one win in five games doesn't paint a pretty picture for Tottenham, but their position in the table makes up for it: they're currently third, just behind Arsenal and Bournemouth, and five points behind leaders Arsenal after nine games.
However, home form is a big concern for Spurs, with just one point from their last three games at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with Burnley the only team to lose this season.
Meanwhile, Enzo Maresca’s Chelsea are enjoying a run of three consecutive away wins – although their most recent win was a struggle. Against bottom-of-the-table Wolves, Chelsea almost let their opponents stage a dramatic comeback in the League Cup, but eventually won 4-3.
Despite having to play with one less man – with a familiar red card for Liam Delap – the youthful “The Blues” were still able 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 match.
However, those talented young players could not help Chelsea avoid a surprising 1-2 defeat to Sunderland in the Premier League, marking their third defeat in the last 5 rounds and causing them to fall to 9th place in the rankings. In history, Chelsea have only lost 4 matches in the first 10 rounds of a Premier League season twice.
However, Tottenham Hotspur Stadium remains Chelsea’s “promised land”. Last season’s dramatic 4-3 win was their fifth victory there – more than any other Premier League away side.
