Chelsea will be desperate to turn around their dismal form in a London derby with Champions League-chasing Tottenham Hotspur.
The Blues are on a five-match winless run and head to north London on the back of 1-0 defeats against Borussia Dortmund and rock-bottom Southampton.
Pressure is growing on Graham Potter as his expensively-assembled squad continues to flatter to deceive.
Chelsea are 10th in the league standings, 11 points behind Spurs in the fourth and final Champions League place.
They need to turn things around quickly if they are to salvage anything from a bad season, but Tottenham will be determined to compound their misery and consolidate their top-four spot.
Spurs manager Antonio Conte is still absent as he recovers from an operation, and they will need to overcome bad recent history here, as Chelsea are unbeaten in the last eight meetings.
Kick-off is at 1.30pm GMT. Make sure you know how to watch the Premier League wherever you are.

VPN guide
Use a VPN to watch Premier League football from outside your country
If you’re out of the country for a Premier League fixture, then you won't be able to watch on your domestic streaming service as usual. The broadcaster knows where you are because of your IP address (boo!) and blocks you from watching it. You can use a VPN to get around that, though, without resorting to illegal feeds you’ve found on Reddit.
A Virtual Private Network (VPN), assuming it complies with your broadcaster’s T&Cs, creates a private connection between your device and t'internet, meaning the service can’t work out where you are and will let you watch. And all the info going between is entirely encrypted, anonymous and safe – and that's a result.
There are plenty of good-value options out there. For the Premier League, FourFourTwo currently recommends:
