De Zerbi rallies Tottenham to end their Stamford Bridge nightmare

Chelsea will be without goalkeeper Emi Martinez for several weeks after the Argentina international underwent surgery on a fractured jaw. Manager Xabi Alonso confirmed the major injury blow ahead of his side's highly anticipated Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur this weekend.

Xabi Alonso urged his Chelsea players to blend intense passion with composure as he prepares for his first London derby against Tottenham. The Spanish boss dismissed historical records, insisting his squad must play with intelligence and heart at Stamford Bridge.

Tottenham Hotspur head coach Roberto De Zerbi declared that Spurs' abysmal historical record at Stamford Bridge serves as extra motivation rather than a burden. The Italian manager insisted his squad possesses enough quality to secure a victory against Chelsea.
