Chelsea's grip on their top-four spot has loosened considerably since mid-December, yet they're seeking a sixth consecutive home victory at Stamford Bridge where they've proven nearly impenetrable lately.
Tottenham, sitting uncomfortably in 14th place, have shown flashes of improvement with the return of key defenders Romero and Van de Ven, but their troubling away record against the Blues (winless in their last six visits) suggests an uphill battle.
Both sides enter Thursday's clash in patchy form, setting the stage for what could be another goal-filled London derby between Chelsea vs Tottenham.

Chelsea vs. Tottenham preview
Thursday's London derby at Stamford Bridge presents a clash of two inconsistent sides, with fourth-placed Chelsea looking to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat to Arsenal while Spurs aim to recover from a disappointing 2-0 loss to Fulham.
The Blues boast an impressive home record, seeking their sixth consecutive win at the Bridge, but their recent Premier League form raises questions – they've won just four of their last 13 league matches, all against bottom-five teams.
Spurs' defensive reinforcements could prove crucial, with Cristian Romero and Micky van de Ven now fit, though they'll miss key attacking threat Dejan Kulusevski through injury.
History favors the hosts in this fixture as Chelsea remain unbeaten against Tottenham in their last three league meetings, while Spurs haven't won at Stamford Bridge in their last six attempts.
Cole Palmer, who netted twice in Chelsea's 4-3 win at Tottenham earlier this season, remains the danger man for the Blues if he's fit for Thursday's clash.
Both teams have shown defensive vulnerabilities, with Spurs conceding in each of their last six matches and Chelsea seeing both teams score in ten of their 14 home league games.
The midfield battle could be decisive, with Enzo Fernandez – fresh from scoring for Argentina – looking to find the net against Spurs for the second time this season.
Despite Chelsea being favorites, don't be shocked if this ends all square – neither side has shown the consistency needed to confidently back a winner in what promises to be another entertaining chapter in this fierce London rivalry.
