Chelsea's Xabi Alonso Faces Tottenham in London Derby
Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are preparing for a London derby on October 24, 2026, with an evening kickoff on matchday eight. Chelsea, managed by Xabi Alonso, comes into the match after consecutive victories over AFC Bournemouth and Everton, placing them fourth in the Premier League table.
In contrast, Tottenham Hotspur, under the management of Roberto de Zerbi, has only one win this season against Coventry, leaving them in 17th place and seven points behind Chelsea. An unusual predictor, Nimbus Pronos, a cat known for its forecasts on social media, has backed Chelsea to win the match.
Historically, Chelsea has dominated their recent encounters with Tottenham, winning seven, drawing two, and losing just one of their last ten meetings. Additionally, Xabi Alonso confirmed that a player, a 2022 FIFA World Cup winner, underwent successful surgery for a broken jaw and is expected to be out for a few weeks.
