Quick Summary

Chelsea faces Tottenham in a Premier League match at Stamford Bridge on Saturday night. Both teams are recovering from earlier struggles but Chelsea has won two consecutive games under manager Xabi Alonso to move into the top four. The Blues have not lost to Spurs at home since 1992 and could set a new record with their seventh straight victory against Tottenham if they win this match. Tottenham arrives without Destiny Udogie, Savio, and possibly James Maddison but hopes Pedro Porro will return from injury. The game starts at 5:30pm BST and will be broadcast live on Sky Sports Premier League, Sky Sports Main Event, and Sky Sports+.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political question, so it has no leaning score. That is an answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political position.

🔮 Another win today would make it a record-breaking seventh in a row against their north London foes.
🔮 Though the club insist it is business as usual and that Carrick will remain in charge for Sunday’s home fixture against Bournemouth in the Premier League, there have been multiple reports that replacement candidates are already being sounded out.
🔮 Chelsea and Liverpool have received a new message in the race for Alex Scott, while Manchester United could overhaul their defensive options as they go back in for Lewis Hall, Adrien Truffert and Jarrad Branthwaite.
🔮 Liverpool legend Carragher slammed Martinez for those comments and has now done likewise with Fernandes, insisting he is the reason that United cannot press as they would like and that he would never have won his player of the year awards last season without Carrick.
🔮 Julian Nagelsmann, Antonio Conte, Fabian Hurzeler and Eddie Howe could all be in the running to replace him.
🔮 Jamal Musiala remains sidelined with a thigh injury, though influential captain Manuel Neuer is expected to be fit after missing Saturday’s 6-1 thrashing of RB Leipzig in the Bundesliga with a foot problem.
🔮 The 40-year-old admitted he was contemplating retirement and did not “see a future with snooker in it” following his first match since an agonising defeat by Wu Yize at the Crucible in May, in which a costly miss on the black in a dramatic final frame saw him denied a place in a first-ever World Championship final.
🔮 The qualifying journey in football’s oldest competition begun some time ago for swathes of non-league clubs, a number of whom will now be eyeing significant upsets against opponents from League One and League Two - including the likes of former Premier League champions Leicester.
🔮 Chelsea have learned how much it will take to sign Alex Scott as they continue to battle Liverpool, who could look at Felix Nmecha, Lamine Camara and Manu Kone as potential alternatives as they also eye Pierre Kalulu.
🔮 However, an injury list that had been dramatically cut down following recent returns for the likes of Joao Pedro, Cole Palmer, Moises Caicedo and Marco Palestra is now growing swiftly again, with captain Reece James set to miss several months of action after undergoing knee surgery.

🔮 Against no other team have the Blues won more than against Spurs, and they will relish the opportunity to let their fearsome attacking triumvirate loose on the north Londoners’ patchwork defence.
2026-10-24 · assertive framing · How Tottenham can end their Stamford Bridge hoodoo
🔮 Chelsea had nothing to play for as they welcomed Spurs to Stamford Bridge in May 2016, but knew they could stop their opponents’ title charge in its tracks if they avoided defeat.
🔮 Despite the noise around Carrick’s future, Standard Sport understands he is set to remain in charge against Bournemouth on Sunday and will conduct Friday’s press conference as usual.
🔮 “I regret maybe the last 10 minutes when I was the one telling the team to slow down the pace because there was another game and maybe with a 4-0 lead they could have managed something.
🔮 Spurs lost control of the game after Maddison was substituted for Conor Gallagher before the 70-minute mark, but speaking at full-time, the 29-year-old admitted that while he felt he could have played on, he and De Zerbi were continuing to be sensible about the amount of minutes he plays.
🔮 Kulusevski came off the bench in the 87th minute, making his first competitive appearance for Spurs since he suffered a kneecap injury against Crystal Palace in May 2025.
🔮 It is a testament to Kulusevski’s selfless, God-fearing personality that he could put his own emotional return to one side to help Spurs over the line for their first league win of the season at home to Coventry.
🔮 “I think if you roll and your elbows are that high and it connects with Milan in the contact it did, I thought VAR would cancel it.

🔮 Carrick himself has been under pressure for some time and seemed to be on the brink of the sack as United returned from Italy, but it has been all but confirmed that he will take to the dugout once more as Bournemouth visit Old Trafford on Sunday.
🔮 He will be further shorthanded on Sunday by the absence of Vinicius Junior, who remains suspended after being sent off against Villarreal.
🔮 He remains on thin ice, though, and knows nothing less than a win will be enough to lift the dark clouds hanging low over Old Trafford.
🔮 Speaking on O’Reilly, Kovacic and Nunes, he said: They could all be available or not.
🔮 “For people who aren’t into football, it might sound completely insane that there aren’t a lot of players to choose from when you have £80m.
🔮 It remains to be seen, though, how much sway he will have over the decision-making process.
🔮 And speaking on Thursday, Maresca confirmed he did not yet know when they might be able to return.
