Stamford Bridge has been a tough place for Tottenham to get a victory over the years and Paul Coyte cut straight to chase on the challenge Spurs face tonight as he previewed the match with goalscoring legend Clive Allen.
Paul said "Happy hunting grounds. This is certainly not one. I think it's, I'm not certain on the facts, but I think I think it's two wins in about 35 years. It's something crazy like that."
Clive responded saying "It goes back to when I played Paul, would you believe?"
Paul asked about playing on bogey grounds "Does it stick in the minds of players, are players aware of these hoodoos, these things that go on? It's like, oh, we never win here. Does it actually make any difference one way or another?"
Clive said "Well, it shouldn't, but there are grounds that you go to that you feel uneasy about. You know, you've not had a good record and perhaps you've had some poor results there. So, it has always been difficult for Spurs there."
Spurs were defeated 3-4 by Chelsea earlier this season at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

Clive revealed he had spoken to Spurs manager Ange Postecoglou this week prior to the match and said "I actually spoke to him yesterday at the training ground. His total focus is on the Chelsea game. He's not even looking any further ahead than that. He wants the team to finish really strongly in the Premier League."
Now onto the predictions...
Clive: 2-2
"With my with my Spurs hat on, I would love to see them go and win tonight to get into a position of confidence with Southampton on Sunday before the Eintracht game. Yeah but I am going to go draw, but I think it's going to be an open game. Goals. I'm going to go 2-2."
Paul: 2-1
"I'm going to go 2-1 Chelsea. Just don't tell anybody that I told you that. That's what I think. I've got to go with the form book."
