Chelsea will host Tottenham Hotspur in the matchweek 30 of the Premier League. With the club still in the race for a European spot, the London Derby could prove to be a crucial encounter. Dominating this London Derby in the last few years, Chelsea have only lost one game to Tottenham since 2020. Meanwhile, Spurs, who find themselves in the bottom half of the table, will be tested at Stamford Bridge.

Spurs’ manager Ange Postecoglou has had a rough season with the injuries and board management. With the talks of his replacements around, these will be some crucial few weeks for the manager in terms of his future at the North London club.

Chelsea will receive a huge boost in training as Enzo Maresca confirmed the return of Cole Palmer, Noni Madueke and Nicholas Jackson.

Speaking in the pre-match conference, Maresca appreciated this boost as he said:

“Cole is back, he is ok. He is better. Noni is better and Nico is better. They are all good. It is very good [to have them back]. We have said many times, that this is a game for the players and when they are not there or different reasons, you struggle.”

Even though there is no statement of when the following players be back, Maresca seems confident. Keeping his typical 4-2-3-1 formation, Jadon Sancho and Christopher Nkunku are expected to retain their wing positions amid the absentees.

Chelsea Predicted Line-up

Chelsea Predicted XI: Sanchez; Cucurella, Colwill, Fofana, James; Fernandez, Caicedo; Neto, Palmer, Sancho; Jackson.
