Match Details
The match kicks off at 3:00pm BST on Sunday, May 17, 2026 at Stamford Bridge. This London derby forms part of the penultimate weekend of the 2025/26 Premier League season, with everything still to play for at both ends of the table. With Spurs sitting precariously one point above the relegation zone and Chelsea pushing for a top-four finish, the stakes could not be higher.
Stamford Bridge
Stamford Bridge has been Chelsea's home since 1905 and boasts a capacity of 40,341. The iconic West London stadium has been a fortress against Tottenham in particular — Spurs have won just once in the league at Stamford Bridge since 1990, making the journey from North London a notoriously difficult assignment.
Head-to-Head Record
Chelsea have dominated this London rivalry in recent decades. In 180 meetings across all competitions, Chelsea have won 82 times compared to Tottenham's 55 victories, with 42 draws. The Blues have won more Premier League matches against Spurs (33) than against any other team, while Tottenham have conceded more Premier League goals against Chelsea (110) than any other opponent. Chelsea have won 11 of the last 14 meetings in all competitions, including each of the last five consecutive encounters.
Last Meeting
Chelsea won 1-0 at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on November 1, 2025. João Pedro scored the only goal in the 34th minute after brilliant pressing from Moisés Caicedo forced a defensive error. It was a dominant Chelsea display against a toothless Spurs side who managed just one shot on target all match. The victory extended Chelsea's winning run against their North London rivals to five matches and moved them up to fourth in the table, while loud boos greeted the full-time whistle at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
Chelsea 2025/26 Season
Liam Rosenior took charge at Stamford Bridge in January 2026, becoming the club's fifth permanent head coach since BlueCo's 2022 takeover. The 41-year-old arrived from fellow BlueCo club Strasbourg, where he had guided them to European qualification for the first time in 19 years. Chelsea sit sixth in the Premier League, just one point behind Liverpool in fifth, and remain firmly in the hunt for Champions League qualification. The squad features exciting talents including Cole Palmer, Pedro Neto, Alejandro Garnacho, and the emerging Brazilian teenager Estêvão.
Tottenham 2025/26 Season
Roberto De Zerbi became Tottenham's third manager of the 2025/26 season when he was appointed in early April 2026. The Italian took charge of a club in crisis, sitting 17th in the table and just one point above the relegation zone. De Zerbi replaced Igor Tudor, who lasted just 44 days and failed to win a single Premier League match. Tudor himself had replaced Thomas Frank, who was sacked in February after failing to arrest Spurs' decline. The former Brighton manager has signed a five-year deal and has vowed to stay even if Tottenham are relegated, with the club facing their first top-flight relegation since 1977. Key players include Guglielmo Vicario, Mohammed Kudus, and Randal Kolo Muani.
