Tottenham Hotspur will face Chelsea at Wembley in the Premier League this weekend.

Arsenal legend Martin Keown has explained in The Daily Mail how Tottenham Hotspur fans can help the team succeed at Wembley.

Tottenham will play at the Wembley Stadium in London this season as construction work continues at White Hart Lane.

Spurs do not have a great record at Wembley, having struggled to win Champions League and Europa League fixtures at the stadium last season.

Former Arsenal defender Keown has explained how the Spurs fans can help the team overcome their problems at Wembley.

Martin Keown of Arsenal waves to the fans during the Martin Keown Testimonial match between Arsenal and England XI at Highbury, on May 17, 2004 in London.

“The fans can make it feel like home by turning Wembley into a cauldron of noise,” Keown wrote in The Daily Mail.

“I went to White Hart Lane a couple of times in the last two seasons and was struck by the warmth generated by the Tottenham fans.

“There is a feeling at everyone at the club is part of something special — and they must generate that same feeling on Sunday.”

Tottenham’s first Premier League game of the season at Wembley is against London rivals Chelsea on Sunday.

Mauricio Pochettino’s side will head into the London derby on the back of a 2-0 victory over 10-man Newcastle United away from home at St. James’ Park in the Premier League last weekend.

Meanwhile, Chelsea, who won the Premier League title last season, went down 3-2 defeat to Burnley at Stamford Bridge in the league last weekend.

Spurs will fancy their chances of picking up all three points against Chelsea at Wembley.
