​Lloris: Tottenham must start well to beat Chelsea

Hugo Lloris has stressed the importance of a good start for Tottenham when they face Chelsea on Sunday.

Spurs won their opening day match 2-0 over Newcastle. Chelsea, on the other hand, were shockingly defeated 3-2 by Burnley at Stamford Bridge, and the Tottenham goalkeeper is expecting the Blues to start the game ferociously.

"Obviously it's a bad start for them, but they're the champions, they have a lot of pride, and for sure they will come to Wembley to bounce back," said Lloris.

"It will be tough for us, and we need to make sure everybody is ready for that fight, in our minds and our bodies, to prepare for this game in the best way.

"We need to start well at Wembley, it's very important."
