READ CHELSEA VERDICT
After the recent poor form in the league, Lampard needs his players to step up and come away with the three points today. He will need the likes of Tammy Abraham and Willian to find their goalscoring boots and fire them to victory, with Spurs rejuvenated under Jose Mourinho.
Going with a 3-4-3 is certainly a bold move by Lampard, but he must have his reasons. Spurs use the flanks well and constantly look for spaces between the fullbacks and the centre-backs, which means that having the back three and then two wing-backs tucking in whilst defending can limit the space Spurs have to work.
