LONDON AT WAR AS CHELSEA BATTLES TOTTENHAM....

While Americans celebrated Thanksgiving this past Thursday, Tottenham Hotspur has plenty to be thankful themselves. Spurs are in scintillating form, winning 6 of their last 7 in all competitions and lack a loss in Premier League play since their season opener. These last seven games have marked the resurgence of Harry Kane, as the striker now has 11 goals in all competitions, followed in second place by Erik Lamela with just four.

Not to be outdone, the Belgian centerback duo of Jan Vertonghen and Toby Alderweireld have helped Spurs to the second best defensive record in league play. The pressure will be on as a scary attacking team come in for a London Derby.

Chelsea travel to White Hart Lane in the midst of a mini run of form after a horrible start to the season. The Blues sit in 15th place on 14 points, but needed wins in Chelsea's last EPL and Champions League matches have somewhat righted the ship.

Chelsea's defense has been less leaky of late, but a rash of injuries to Terry, Ramires, Courtois, and Falcao has thinned what was presumed to be a top squad entering the season. The biggest pressure may come on the combo of Diego Costa and Eden Hazard, who will need to score goals in this tough road match.

Which London team will come out on top in this derby match?  We shall see.
