Chelsea is a visit to Tottenham Hotspur in London on Thursday evening in the Premier League when both sides return from the March International Break.
The blues will continue their hunt for the qualification of the Champions League and know that victory will be sufficient to see that they end this round of the middle of the week among the top 4. Chelsea has won four of her last five excursions, but did some far below her ceiling, which Spurs will take advantage of the Stamford Bridge.
Tottenham is currently fighting for form because the pressure is still being installed on Posetecoglou. Winning the Europa League is the only saving grace for the LilyWhites this season, which was massively deviated in the Premier League. They have not managed to win one of their last three domestic encounters and smile in the lower half.
Here is 90 minutes Guide for an all-capital affair.

Enzo Maresca has confirmed the return of three influential Stars, with Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson and Noni Madueke being available again. The trio should return directly to the starting line -up.
Romeo Lavia has suffered a small setback in the past few days and is now a doubt to meet Tottenham, while Marc Guiu could also miss, even though he ends up when he returned. Omari Kellyman and Mykhailo Mudryk are both not available.
REECE JAMES has been used in midfield in the past few weeks, but Maresca has insisted that Chelsea still has to manage the minutes of her captain. He was able to get out of the double swivel material on the bench against Spurs with Enzo Fernandez and Moises Caicedo on Thursday.
Chelsea predicted the line-up against Tottenham (4-2-3-1): Sanchez; Gusto, Fofana, Colwill, Cucurella; Caicedo, Fernandez; Madueke, Palmer, Neto; Jackson.
Poseteclou has confirmed that the influential Dejan Kulusevski still lacks Spurs, with the Swede and the central defender Kevin Danso both “a few weeks away” from returning to action. The duo is accompanied by Radu Dragusin in the treatment room.
Richarlison trains back, but Postecoglou has confirmed that after a test season, he will be careful of injuries to reintroduce the Brazil international.
Elsewhere, Micky van de Ven and Pedro Porro should come into the start -xi after they were left out of the side before the international period. James Maddison and son Heung-Min were to be used as a replacement for the last time from the start.
Tottenham predicted the line-up against Chelsea (4-2-3-1): Vicario; Porro, Romero, van de Ven, Spence; Sarr, Bentancur; Johnson, Maddison, son; Solanke.
Neither of the two teams appears in a promising form on Thursday, but the recent history prefers Chelsea in this game with three consecutive victories against Spurs. They were triumphant in December in a chaotic 4: 3 victory, but this time they want a quieter evening on the Stamford Bridge.
The return of Palmer, Jackson and Madueke will offer Chelsea an urgently needed attack that has not rediscovered in the past few weeks, while the leaky defense of Spurs is always able to give up the goals.
It will be a close matter, but the home team should steal three important points.
