Chelsea host Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday aiming to extend the visitors' 28-year wait for a league win at Stamford Bridge and keep their hopes of Champions League football next season alive in the process. Spurs sit five points above the English champions in the fourth and final Champions League place with just eight games of the campaign to go.
Missing out on the top four would almost certainly seal Chelsea manager Antonio Conte's fate. However, Conte remains hopeful that Chelsea can make up the lost ground caused by four defeats in their last six league games.
