The Big e-Spurs Preview - Chelsea vs Tottenham

After yesterday's score draw at Old Trafford, Spurs now know that Champions League football is virtually secure and the main goal at the start of the season of a top four finish has, barring a mammoth goal swing in the favour of United who sit in fifth, been achieved. The manager, players and fans all deserve massive praise in what has been a fantastic season.

Chelsea vs Tottenham Hotspur - Venue: Stamford Bridge

Those who still harbour hopes of snatching the title from under Leicester's noses will already be aware that Spurs' only hope of a first title since 1961 is to win their final three games and hope Leicester pick up less than two points from their last two matches.

If Spurs fail to win, it will be the second season in a row the title has been won at Stamford Bridge.
