A section of Chelsea fans have set the right atmosphere for the much-awaited league clash against their bitter neighbors Tottenham Hotspur at the Stamford Bridge on Monday. The Blues are under pressure to win this clash in order to end their rivals’ title hopes.
If Spurs beat Guus Hiddink’s men later today, then the title race will head to the wire with two matches to go for league leaders Leicester City. However, if the Stamford Bridge outfit wins tonight, the Foxes will be declared Premier League winners.
It is to that effect that a section of Chelsea fans have created a banner warning the Dutch tactician not to break the 26-year-old record kept by his predecessors. Chelsea have not lost to Spurs at the Stamford Bridge since 1990, and Hiddink will be facing the test of his life as he prepares to preserve the record. In fact, the last time Spurs won at the Bridge, Match of the Day TV anchor Gary Lineker, scored the winning goal. Here is the banner:
