Tottenham has impressed so far in the Premier League and are still competing in the Champions League. These are the Spurs’ 5 biggest games from now until the end of November.

At the end of this season we could look back at this Chelsea game and view it as the most important match in the Premier League. The London derby taking place next month will show who is the better side and could affect the whole table.

As it stands, Tottenham and Chelsea are tied with 21 points. Near the end of November, the two sides should still be very close.

Spurs will have to extinguish Eden Hazard’s attack as he is league leader in goals. Chelsea Manager Maurizio Sarri is putting a heavy emphasis on the Belgian’s play lately. If the Spurs’ defense can temper him, victory is possible.

Hopefully Jan Vertonghen will be back from injury ahead of time so Tottenham’s back line will be in top form. Perhaps Pochettino will go with a dual CDM formation with Dembele and Dier taking control of the game.
