Predicted XI: Chelsea (A)

Tottenham travel to Stamford Bridge on Monday night in a game they must win in order to keep any faint hope of winning the league alive.

Even a victory, though, may not be enough as Leicester could have already secured the title if they leave Old Trafford with all three points on Sunday.

Nevertheless, the game will still be of significance to the Lilywhites as they look to tie down second place, which will also ensure league supremacy over Arsenal for the first time in 20 years.

The game also provides Tottenham with the opportunity to win at Stamford Bridge for the first time since February 1990, a record routinely the source of embarrassment for the North Londoners.

However, Mauricio Pochettino is likely to be without two of his star performers this season. Dele Alli’s campaign has ended prematurely thanks to a three-match ban for punching Claudio Yacob whilst Eric Dier suffered a concussion when attempting to defend the corner which West Brom, unfortunately, scored from.

With this in mind, here is a predicted XI for the game.
