The second and final Premier League match of the day is a big one, as Chelsea host Tottenham Hotspur in a London derby.

Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is 16:30 BST.

Thomas Tuchel makes two changes for Chelsea, with Marc Cucurella and Ruben Loftus-Cheek coming in for Ben Chilwell and Cesar Azpilicueta, both of whom are substitutes.

That suggests Reece James will feature as a right-sided centre-back alongside Thiago Silva and Kalidou Koulibaly.

Mateo Kovacic, meanwhile, misses out because of a knee injury, while Marcos Alonso is absent as he finalises his transfer to Barcelona.

As for Spurs, they are unchanged from Gameweek 1, with Matt Doherty and Ivan Perisic on the bench with new signing Richarlison.

However, they are without the injured Clement Lenglet and Oliver Skipp.

GAMEWEEK 2 LINE-UPS

Chelsea XI: Mendy, James, Silva, Koulibaly, Loftus-Cheek, Kante, Jorginho, Cucurella, Havertz, Mount, Sterling

Subs: Kepa, Pulisic, Chalobah, Broja, Hudson-Odoi, Chilwell, Ziyech, Gallagher, Azpilicueta

Tottenham Hotspur XI: Lloris, Romero, Dier, Davies, Royal, Bentancur, Hojbjerg, Sessegnon, Kulusevski, Son, Kane

Subs: Forster, Doherty, Sanchez, Richarlison, Gil, Perisic, Tanganga, Moura, Bissouma

    Perisic to Zinchenko or Walker? I like double City defence but might want to move Salah to KDB at some point. Or keep and hope Perisic starts next week?

    1. masewindu

      I have both and I feel Zinc has the higher ceiling but City are so so good. I think Walker will play enough to make it 50/50

    Yeah clear free kick but in reality it's irrelevant for the goal. There was a lot of play after it

  28. Zenith UK
    • 9 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

      1. Zenith UK
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 7 months ago

        Yeah, I was just curious, would've liked a behind the goal POV

  29. Kodap
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 7 months ago

    Why haven’t they brought this back to be ruled off for a foul?

    1. _Ninja_
      • 15 Years
      3 years, 7 months ago

      Because the spurs player got the ball?

    Careful Chelsea...we all know the inner rage Son carries and what it can do.
