​Chelsea boss Conte admits Premier League a tough call

Chelsea boss Antonio Conte has been speaking of his crucial clash with Tottenham on Wednesday and how teams are determined to stop the Blues unbeaten run.

"This type of game gives you motivation. Now I think every team want to stop our run, not just Tottenham. If you see the table, we have only five points more than second place from Liverpool and seven points from Manchester City. The league is open. This is only the first game of the second part of the season.

"This league is very tough. In every game you can lose points. It is important to stay focused in every game, whether you play Tottenham or another game."
