Confirmed Teams: Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur | Premier League

Chelsea face Tottenham in the Premier League and the confirmed team news is in from Stamford Bridge.

It is the Blues' first home game of the 2022/23 campaign after they began the new season with an away trip to Goodison Park to face Everton.

It was a tight affair on Merseyside, but Thomas Tuchel's side came out on top with a 1-0 win thanks to Jorginho's penalty on the stroke of half-time.

Chelsea have a full squad available other than Marcos Alonso and Mateo Kovacic due to the Spaniard finalising a move to Barcelona, while Kovacic is injured with a knee problem.

Tuchel is looking forward to returning to Stamford Bridge on Sunday, with it being the first home game under the new ownership since the takeover was confirmed at the end of May.

He told Sky Sports: "I always love to start seasons at home so this is now a bit of a delay because we started at Goodison. We were lucky enough to get three points, well deserved, but it was hard work.

"Even nicer to come with three points (from Everton), we already have the first nervous beginnings and game out of our legs. It’s a pretty amazing start to start our home matches against Tottenham."
