Spurs have won just one of their last 13 Premier League games against Chelsea (D2 L10), losing the last four in a row since a 2-0 home win in February 2023.

Chelsea have won five of their six Premier League games against Spurs at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium (L1), earning more victories at the ground than any other visiting side.

Tottenham Hotspur have won five of their nine Premier League matches this season (D2 L2), as many as they won in their last 26 games under Ange Postecoglou last season (D4 L17).

Chelsea have lost three of their last five Premier League matches (W2), more than they’d lost in their previous 16 combined (W10 D4 L2). In just two of their previous 30 seasons have they had four defeats in their opening 10 games of a season, doing so in 2015-16 (5) and 2023-24 (4).

Only Arsenal (7) and Chelsea (6) have scored more Premier League goals from corners this season than Tottenham (5), while in the last two seasons only the Gunners (21) have more than Spurs (15).

Chelsea have won four of their last seven away Premier League matches (D1 L2), having gone eight winless on the road beforehand. The Blues’ two away wins this season have been against managers no longer in the Premier League – 5-1 against Graham Potter’s West Ham and 3-0 against Ange Postecoglou’s Nottingham Forest.

Tottenham manager Thomas Frank has lost just two of his eight Premier League games against Chelsea (W3 D3). However, all three of those victories have come at Stamford Bridge, with the Dane winless in his four home games against the Blues (D3 L1).

Five of Tottenham’s 17 Premier League goals this season have come via headers (29.4%), with those goals coming in two games (2 v West Ham, 3 v Everton). It’s their highest percentage of headed goals in a season since 1998-99 (16/47, 34%).

Excluding own goals, each of Chelsea’s last 101 Premier League goals has been scored by players under the age of 30, the eighth longest run in Premier League history.

Micky van de Ven netted twice on MD9 for Tottenham against Everton, becoming the first Spurs defender to score twice in a Premier League game since Jan Vertonghen in March 2013 against Liverpool. His next appearance will be 50th in the competition, with Spurs averaging 1.7 points per game in games that feature him compared to just 1.11 without him since the start of 2023-24.
