Chelsea injury, suspension news vs. Tottenham Hotspur: Wesley Fofana, Reece James updates

Sports Mole rounds up Chelsea's injury and suspension news ahead of their Premier League clash with Tottenham Hotspur.

Chelsea will be aiming to make it five straight wins in all competitions when they continue their Premier League campaign with a clash against London rivals Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday afternoon.

The Blues will enter the match off the back of a 5-1 victory over struggling Southampton in England's top flight.

Chelsea's excellent form has seen them rise into second spot in the Premier League table, level on points with third-placed Arsenal and seven from the leaders Liverpool, who dropped two points against Newcastle United on Wednesday night.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up the away team's latest injury and suspension news ahead of a trip to the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium for a London derby.
