'It's a dangerous time to play Spurs' says Chelsea Thomas Tuchel

Published on: 19 September 2021

Chelsea take on Tottenham today in the Premier League at the Tottenham Hotspur stadium. 

The Blues are unbeaten this season and are looking to go joint-top of the table with a win.

Tottenham have a few injury issues, but Thomas Tuchel insists that could be a disadvantage for Chelsea. He said:

"It [the injuries] can also sometimes be a good platform to build a really strong mentality. We have all been in these places where you go, 'oh no, not another injury,' and then comes a tough match - a London derby - and you put yourself maybe in this underdog role. You take the energy from the stadium and fight.

"They will go for the win - I believe nothing else. They will try everything and the spectators will help them, because sometimes it creates this kind of atmosphere. The spectators will know they miss some players and need extra support. We have to be well prepared to implement our style and for a tough match. It's full of emotion, it's full of energy - it's a nice one."

Chelsea defeated Tottenham when they faced each other earlier this year.
