Chelsea star Christian Pulisic has told the club’s official website that he and his teammates are confident of winning against Tottenham Hotspur at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium this week.
Tottenham will lock horns with Chelsea at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in the Premier League on Thursday evening.
Chelsea will head into the London derby on the back of a 2-0 win against Burnley at Stamford Bridge in the league.
Spurs have lost their last two Premier League fixtures, going down 3-1 to Liverpool before suffering a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Brighton and Hove Albion.
Ahead of the match, Pulisic, who can operate as an attacking midfielder or as a winger and cost Chelsea £57.6 million in transfer fees (Sky Sports), has said that he and his teammates are looking forward to the game.
Pulisic told Chelsea’s official website: “It’s a good time to play them coming off a good result for us. We’re feeling confident.
“We’re really excited. It’s a good chance to make a statement and most importantly really build some momentum. We know what a good result against a good team could do for us.”
Big London derby
Both Chelsea and Tottenham are fighting for the Premier League top four, and the London derby on Thursday evening will be massive.
While the Blues are starting to recover under new manager Thomas Tuchel, Spurs are having a tough time, with star striker Harry Kane also injured at the moment.
