Thomas Tuchel has dropped left-wing-back Marcos Alonso from the Chelsea first-team for their clash with London rivals Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League this afternoon.
The match is the third time this month that the two sides have met, having already played out Carabao Cup semi-final ties both at Stamford Bridge and the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Blues came out the victors on both occasions, winning the first leg 2-0 and the second leg 1-0 to progress to the final of the competition where they will face Liverpool.
