Chelsea stats

The Blues have dropped 13 points from winning positions in the Premier League this season.

Since Chelsea beat Leeds on 11 December, the Blues have won only eight points from a possible 21 in the Premier League. We are seeking our first win in the competition for five games.

Going into the weekend’s fixtures, Chelsea have played 18 games in all competitions since the November international break (61 days). Here is the complete list of Premier League clubs matches in the same period.

Burnley (17 games) have played six fewer matches than Chelsea (23) in the Premier League this season; it is the first time one team has had as many as six games in hand at the end of a day in the English top-flight since Luton Town in 1988.

If the Blues take all three points on Sunday, we will be the first side to reach 500 points from Premier League London derbies.

All four of Ziyech's Premier League goals for Chelsea have come away from home, scoring at Turf Moor, the Etihad Stadium, Vicarage Road and the Amex Stadium.

Tottenham are unbeaten in all nine of their Premier League games under Antonio Conte, the best unbeaten start for a Spurs manager in their league history (six wins, three draws).

Only two managers to join a Premier League club during a season have had longer unbeaten starts – Ole Gunnar Solskjaer (12) and Thomas Tuchel (10).

Spurs were last beaten in the Premier League on 30 October at home to Man United.

Harry Kane’s opener at Leicester was his 250th career club goal in all competitions.

Tottenham beat Leicester despite trailing after 94 minutes and 52 seconds, overtaking Manchester City 3-2 QPR in May 2012 (91:14) as the latest a team has been losing but gone on to win in a Premier League match.

Spurs have scored a 90th-minute winning goal in each of their past two Premier League matches (Leicester and Watford), the first side to do so in back-to-back games in the competition since Arsenal in 2012.

Five of Tottenham’s last six away defeats in the Premier League have been in London.

Spurs have failed to win any of their last 13 away Premier League matches against sides starting the day in the top four.
