Comments:

League position: 5th Chelsea had now lost four of their nine games so far in this Premier League season against their top six rivals (won two). The Blues failed in their attempt to win consecutive games in the Premier League for the first time since 30 December 2017. They had now lost seven of their last 13 games in all competitions (won five).

League position: 4th Tottenham Hotspur were now unbeaten in their last 13 games in the Premier League; the longest current such run in the division. Only three of their starting XI in this game were born when Spurs last won at Stamford Bridge in February 1990 (Hugo Lloris, Jan Vertonghen and Moussa Dembélé). On his 100th appearance in the Premier League, this was the first time that Dele Alli had scored two goals in a game in the competition since 4 January 2017, also against Chelsea (2-0 at White Hart Lane).
