It is safe to say Chelsea’s stuttering title challenge is over as they stand 12 points behind Manchester City having played one more match.
Despite them sitting comfortably in third place at the moment, they need to be aware of the threat that the likes of Arsenal as well as opponents Spurs pose to their top four hopes.

Spurs are now unbeaten in nine matches although they nearly succumbed to their first defeat under Antonio Conte on Wednesday night.
In an unbelievable 80 second spell, Spurs went from being 2-1 down to winning the match 3-2 thanks to Steven Bergwijn goals in the 95th and 97th minutes.
