Mauricio Pochettino’s side were dramatically dumped out of the Champions League by Juventus in the first knockout round, and for the North Londoners – who have star striker Harry Kane missing through injury – this is a must-win game too. Lose it and they’ll go into the final, all-important stretch of the season with a reinvigorated Chelsea hot on their heels.
However this unmissable showdown plays out at the Bridge, it’s sure to be a truly tasty tie. Whether it’s the world-class talent on display for both teams, or the fact that Tottenham will be seeking revenge for the 2-1 defeat they suffered at home to Chelsea back in August, this is a fixture that’s guaranteed to bring drama, controversy and talking points.
