This is the Chelsea confirmed lineup for their Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur on April 3. This London derby marks an interesting one for the Blues who will have some key players back from injury to make a push for Champions League football against a resurgent Manchester City and a strong Newcastle squad.

In midfield, it’s a game of geometry and risk. Rodrigo Bentancur, Lucas Bergvall and James Maddison form a triangle of control and creativity — yet Pape Matar Sarr remains an appealing wildcard. Archie Gray, fresh from a patchy Fulham outing, adds yet another flavour to the mix.

Cole Palmer will make his return after missing out on Chelsea's defeat to Arsenal before the international break.
