The final chapter of the rivalry between Chelsea and Tottenham was due to take place on Friday, February 23, 2024.
There is little love between the two London clubs, whose animosity initially stems from geographical proximity but has deepened in recent years as each has become a more significant presence at the top of English football.
Their previous meeting ended in a 4-1 Chelsea victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium in November 2023, during which the hosts had two players sent off in a frantic and highly entertaining match. It meant the second leg of the 2023/24 Premier League season was eagerly awaited.
However, the match scheduled for late February was postponed, meaning fans will have to wait a little longer before seeing these two horns once again.
