Tottenham XI vs Chelsea: Starting lineup, confirmed team news, injury latest for Premier League game

Tottenham have named an unchanged team to face Chelsea as Richarlison keeps his place ahead of Heung-min Son.

Son scored from the bench in last weekend's 2-0 win over West Ham - his fourth goal in just two substitute appearances in the League this season - after replacing a subdued Richarlison, making his first start since the league’s World Cup break.

Ivan Perisic also remains on the bench as Ben Davies continues at left wing-back, while in-form Emerson Royal remains ahead of new £40million signing Pedro Porro.

Oliver Skipp continues in midfield ahead of Pape Matar Sarr while Fraser Forster is in goal.

Cristian Stellini, who will again deputise for manager Antonio Conte as the head coach recovers from gallbladder surgery in Italy, says Spurs have no new injury concerns.

Hugo Lloris (knee), Rodrigo Bentancur (knee), Yves Bissouma (ankle) and Ryan Sessegnon (hamstring) are all sidelined.
