Tottenham Hotspur will be aiming to make their best ever start to a Premier League campaign when they make the journey across the capital to take on Chelsea on Sunday afternoon.
Jose Mourinho's men have opened the 2020-21 campaign in magnificent form and were briefly top of the Premier League table before Liverpool knocked Spurs off their perch on Saturday.
The Lilywhites boast 20 points from their opening nine matches and are only one adrift of Liverpool - who have played a game more - prior to their trip to Chelsea.
Should Mourinho come out on top against his former protege Frank Lampard this weekend, Spurs will have made their best ever start to a Premier League season as they bid to be crowned English champions for the first time since 1961.
Tottenham's best record after 10 matches came in the 2011-12 campaign under Harry Redknapp, who collected 22 points from a possible 30 in a season where Spurs eventually finished fourth.
Son Heung-min will also be looking to notch up his 10th goal of the Premier League season at Stamford Bridge, which would see him become the first Spurs player to reach double figures in 10 games since Gary Lineker in the 1991-92 campaign.
