Tottenham v Chelsea: match preview

Two clubs on different trajectories. Tottenham, Champions League finalists in 2019, slumped from last December and find themselves in the Europa Conference League, trying to regroup under Nuno Espírito Santo, with an emphasis on solidity. Chelsea, meanwhile, have roared back to the top after the appointment of Thomas Tuchel in January and are European champions. Spurs have fitness issues and are reeling from the loss at Crystal Palace last Saturday. In-form Chelsea scent blood. David Hytner
