Thomas Tuchel and Antonio Conte will lock horns for the third time inside a month as Chelsea host Tottenham in the Premier League this weekend.
The Blues recently overcame Spurs in the Carabao Cup semi-finals, although their title bid suffered a serious blow as they were held to a 1-1 draw at Brighton in midweek.
Tottenham, meanwhile, extended their league unbeaten run under Conte with a frenetic 3-2 win over Leicester. Spurs trailed 2-1 heading into the fifth minute of stoppage time before a quick-fire brace from Steven Bergwijn snatched victory from the jaws of defeat for Tottenham.

Chelsea vs Tottenham head-to-head record
Tottenham have not defeated Chelsea in normal time since Mauricio Pochettino's Spurs dumped the Blues out of the League Cup in January 2019.
Eleven meetings have passed since then and Chelsea rammed home their superiority over two legs when the sides met in the Carabao Cup earlier this month.
Tuchel's men smothered Spurs in the home leg at Stamford Bridge before an Antonio Rudiger header sealed Chelsea's progression to the final.
Chelsea vs Tottenham score prediction
Chelsea flexed their muscles in dispatching Spurs over two legs in the Carabao Cup. That will offer Tuchel's side confidence, and their strong home record against Tottenham should make it a difficult afternoon for Conte's side.
All eyes will be on Romelu Lukaku and whether he can deliver in a big game, while Chelsea should generally be confident of their chances here.
Prediction: Chelsea 2-0 Tottenham
