Break the popcorn and get ready for it. Chelsea and Tottenham have been electrifying this season so far, while there was more than just a spark between Frank Lampard and José Mourinho when these teams met in the League Cup in September. Spurs can make a serious statement for the title as they continue their victory against Manchester City and another success at Stamford Bridge. Meanwhile, Lampard’s side could jump over Mourinho if they hold tight at home. Édouard Mendy could have a huge role to play in the result as his seven clean sheets in 10 games turned Lampard’s leaky defense. Maybe Mendy is the man who can finally stop Harry Kane and Son Heung-min’s relentless shooting machine. Graham Searles
