Premier League Preview: Looking ahead to this week's fixtures

Sinéad O’Connor was number one in the charts with Nothing Compares 2 U in 1990 the last time Spurs won at Stamford Bridge, but last Sundays 2-1 victory at home to Everton leaves the North Londoners ninth and thirteen points behind the leaders.
 
Chelsea will be without the suspended Diego Costa, meaning Loic Remy or Didier Drogba may start. Tottenham have never won a Premier League match at the Bridge, but Manager Mauricio Pochettino says he's not interested in the history of this tie.
 
Nacho Monreal, Alex Oxladie Chamberlin and Kieran Gibbs are all doubts for seventh-place Arsenal ahead of their tie with third place- Southampton. The Saints lost 3-0 to Manchester City at the weekend but can be confident against a Gunners side that has won just one of their last five home league games. A group of supporters held up a banner urging Arsène Wenger to quit during their last match, but Wenger says he will plow on regardless.
 
James Mc Carthy is a major doubt for eleventh-place Everton, who host third-from-bottom Hull while for second-place Manchester City, Kompany is injured and Mangala suspended for their tie away to Sunderland.
