Chelsea could be without six players for Tottenham clash, Spurs missing up to eight

Both Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are dealing with significant injury lists ahead of their Premier League clash at Stamford Bridge on Saturday, October 24. Chelsea could be without up to six players, with Reece James, Emmanuel Emegha, and Jamie Gittens ruled out, while goalkeeper Emiliano Martinez is unlikely to feature following jaw surgery. Young goalkeeper Mike Penders is expected to make his full debut, and Malo Gusto and Pep Chavarria face late fitness tests.

Tottenham manager Roberto De Zerbi could be missing up to eight players for the London derby. Long-term absentees Xavi Simons, Wilson Odobert, and Mykhailo Mudryk remain sidelined alongside Lucas Bergvall, Savio, and Destiny Udogie. However, Tottenham received a boost with Pedro Porro returning to training, while Omar Marmoush, Andy Robertson, and Tosin Adarabioyo are not believed to have serious issues.
