As these two London-based clubs prepare to clash on Wednesday in what is expected to be a thriller, we take a look at some of the amazing facts and stats you need to know.
Harry Kane the cane holder

Records at stake
The Blues will be hoping to set one important record in this match. If they win, they will become the first PL team to win 14 consecutive top-flight games. Antonio Conte's men are also seeking to break their own record which they set in 2005/06 when they became the first side to win more than 49 points after 19 games. In 2005/06, they had 52 points after 19 games, and now have 49 after 19 games.
Costa's roller-coaster ride
Chelsea hitman Diego Costa is having a time of this life this season. The ex-Atletico Madrid forward has scored seven goals in nine away games - he has only failed to score against Sunderland and rivals Arsenal. The trip to the White Hart Lane could be yet another chance for the superstar to extend is impressive goal-scoring record away from home.
Pochettino poaching history
Spurs coach Mauricio Pochettino is also set to reach a huge career milestone. Wednesday's game vs the West London giants will be his 150th Premier League game.

Making White Hart Lane greater again
The Lillywhites are also hoping to break the record they set in 2000/01 when they were unbeaten in their first 13 opening home matches in the league. They are currently unbeaten in their first 10 opening games at home this season.
There is no doubt that this tie promises to be a thriller. And considering the fact that it is Chelsea who ended Spurs' title hopes last season when Eden Hazard scored a spectacular late goal vs Poch's men to hand the league title to Leicester City, this could be as well the right moment for the hosts to revenge by slowing down Chelsea's title-chase.
