History of the Chelsea vs Spurs rivalry
Chelsea and Tottenham share the London area (along with, as of 2023-24, five other EPL teams and six more clubs in the Championship, League One, and League Two).
Due to the elite stature of Chelsea and Tottenham, especially in recent decades, matchups between these two are often highlights of the season.
The first time Chelsea and Spurs met was in December 1909 at Stamford Bridge. The Blues took the result 2-1. In the final match of that season, Tottenham got revenge, winning 2-1 at White Hart Lane, which saved them from relegation and sent Chelsea down.
The first major meetup between the two was the 1967 FA Cup Final – the first to be contested between two London-based clubs. Over 100,000 fans were on hand at Wembley to see Spurs win.
In 1975, it was a repeat of their 1910 late-season clash. Spurs won a game that was delayed by fan unrest, sending Chelsea down and saving themselves from relegation.
Since then, the two sides meeting in a relegation scrap is pretty much unheard of.
Chelsea dominated the matchup in the 1990s, at one point going unbeaten for sixteen straight league matches. 2007-2008 saw two big cup clashes. 2007’s FA Cup quarters had Chelsea coming back to win a replay 2-1. Tottenham would get revenge by winning the League Cup Final 2-1 over Chelsea the following year.
Chelsea passed Tottenham in terms of total trophies by beating Spurs in the 2015 League Cup final.
