Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli warns Chelsea of ' big battle'

Tottenham midfielder Dele Alli has fired a warning at Chelsea ahead of today's meeting.

Spurs start life in their temporary home with a London derby against the reigning Premier League champions.

He said: “Obviously every game is important and every game means a lot to the players and the fans.

"But there's no hiding how big Sunday's match is to all of us. We've got some history with Chelsea over the last couple of years and we're going out there looking to win the game.

"Obviously we were disappointed with the FA Cup semi-final against them at Wembley, it was another cracking game, a real battle and we played very well on the day but Chelsea just had the edge.

"I'm sure it's going to be another great game this time."
