Spurs vs Chelsea Previous Fixture

Chelsea 1 – 0 Spurs (Thursday 3^rd April 2025)

Spurs and Chelsea have a heated and long standing rivalry that goes back generations, and they last went head to head in the Premier League back on Thursday 3rd April 2025 at Stamford Bridge in the heart of West London. Spurs were not just looking for all three points in this game, they were also looking for local bragging rights for their fans as well.

Ahead of this game against the Blues, Spurs were sat in 14th place with 34 points to their name at that point in the campaign. They knew that a win against one of their biggest rivals would give them a boost going into their last few matches and they could leapfrog Manchester United with victory thanks to goal difference.

Just before this high profile game against Chelsea, Tottenham had just been beaten 2 – 0 by another London club Fulham at Craven Cottage following goals from Rodrigo Muniz (78’) and Ryan Sessegnon (88’), with both goals coming late on in the second half.

As for Chelsea, they came into this game against Tottenham off the back of a defeat themselves, having lost 1 – 0 to another one of their local rivals, Arsenal, losing 1 – 0 to Mikel Arteta’s Gunners at the Emirates Stadium thanks to a winning goal that came from Mikel Merino early on in the first half (20’).

Ahead of this game, Chelsea, led by Enzo Maresca, were sat up in 5th place in the final spot for UEFA Champions League qualification, having earned a grand total of no less than 49 points from their 29 games up to that point in the season. They knew that victory against Spurs would give their chances of securing a top five finish a significant boost ahead of the remainder of their games.

In the end, it was unfortunately a narrow 1 – 0 defeat for Spurs against Chelsea at Stamford Bridge in West London.

The opening chance of the game came the way of Chelsea when their Portuguese forward Pedro Neto had his shot well blocked by the Spurs defence (1’), which came shortly before Spurs had their opening chance, which came through their talismanic forward Son Heung-Min, whose effort was also blocked to prevent the deadlock being broken (2’).

Later on in the first half, Chelsea’s Nicolas Jackson did force a great save from Tottenham’s Italian Goalkeeper Guglielmo Vicario who maintained parity for his team with almost fifteen minutes having already elapsed in this game (14’).

The next significant chance for Spurs came from their 19 year old Sweden international central midfielder Lucas Bergvall, but his shot on goal was well blocked by the Chelsea defence. Bergvall had initially received the ball into his feet from forward Wilson Odobert (33’).

The final big chance of the first half came the way of Chelsea, when their forward Jadon Sancho, on loan from fellow Premier League club Manchester United, forced a great save from Vicario once again, which came after the English forward was found with a cross into the box from Pedro Neto (45’).

Then the half time whistle went with the two clubs on level terms at 0 – 0 at Stamford Bridge going into the second half.

It did not take long for the first goal of the game to be scored in the second half once it got underway. Unfortunately for Spurs, it was the hosts Chelsea who took the lead through their Argentina international midfielder Enzo Fernandez found the back of the Lilywhites’ net thanks to a well placed header into the top left corner after he had met a great cross into the box from Cole Palmer (50’).

Chelsea then thought that they had made it 2 – 0 just under ten minutes later when Moises Caicedo found the back of the net, only for it to be ruled out due to an offside call that was confirmed by VAR (57’).

Not long after that, Spurs had a good opportunity to restore parity through Micky van de Ven, but his effort from close range was saved well by Robert Sanchez with the ball looking like it was going to find the bottom left corner of the net (66’).

Spurs did think that they had their equalising goal when their midfielder Pape Matar Sarr found the back of the Chelsea net, only for VAR to rule it out with less than twenty minutes left to go in this game at that point in the contest (71’).

Then came a flurry of chances with less than ten minutes to go. James Maddison had a shot blocked before the aforementioned Pape Matar Sarr missed a chance of his own just seconds later. Then Djed Spence had an effort blocked as well (81’).

Cole Palmer then almost doubled Chelsea’s advantage when Cole Palmer forced yet another great save from Spurs Stopper Guglielmo Vicario (83’).

The final big chance for either side in this game came the way of Spurs, who, through their talismanic forward Son Heung-Min, who looked like he had found the bottom left corner of the Blues’ net for what would have been a dramatic winning goal after meeting a ball into his feet from Brennan Johnson, only for his effort to be well saved by Chelsea Goalkeeper Robert Sanchez (89’).

The full time whistle then soon went, with Chelsea only narrowly beating Spurs 1 – 0 following that Enzo Fernandez goal early on in the second half. This game saw Spurs remain in 14th place, whilst Chelsea remained in 5th place following results elsewhere.

Possession was equal between both teams, with Tottenham Hotspur and Chelsea both having 50% possession, whilst it was the Blues who had the most shots on target with 5, whilst Spurs had less on target than the Blues with 2 overall.
