Spurs Celebrate Ending Chelsea Hoodoo with 2-0 Win

Maddison’s fitness is uncertain after three days out, while Roberto De Zerbi says Spurs’ poor Stamford Bridge record should fuel belief, not fear.

  • On Saturday, October 24, 2026, Tottenham Hotspur secured a 2-0 victory over Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, marking only their second win at the venue in 41 attempts across all competitions.
  • Manager Roberto De Zerbi transformed the club's dismal record at Stamford Bridge into motivation, telling his players, "I want this negative record to give us more motivation, mentality and energy to win a game."
  • A 77th-minute own goal from Chelsea goalkeeper Mike Penders preceded Cole Palmer's red card three minutes later, before Mathys Tel sealed the result with a solo goal in the 87th minute.
  • With consecutive victories following Monday's 3-1 win over Coventry, Tottenham climbed to 12th place in the Premier League table, providing significant momentum after their early-season struggles.
  • Midfielder James Maddison was forced off during the second half with a fitness concern, prompting De Zerbi to remain cautious about the recently returned player's availability for upcoming fixtures.
