Chelsea midfielder Moises Caicedo could be one of Tottenham Hotspur’s biggest problems when the two sides meet in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

According to The Chelsea Chronicles in a report published on Friday, October 23, 2026, the Ecuadorian has established an impressive record against Tottenham, making him a player the visitors will need to keep under control during the London derby.

Caicedo’s return to fitness has been a major boost for Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso, particularly with the midfielder helping to improve the team’s defensive stability. The Blues have conceded only two goals in the two matches he has started since recovering from injury. They also ended their nine-month run without a clean sheet by keeping Everton from scoring last weekend.

The 2023 arrival from Brighton has enjoyed remarkable success against Tottenham, winning all six meetings he has played against the North London outfit. That outstanding record highlights his influence in the fixture and could give Chelsea additional confidence heading into Saturday’s encounter.

During the 2023/24 season, Caicedo was part of the Chelsea team that defeated Tottenham 4-1 away from home. Although one of his goals was disallowed, the Blues recovered from an early setback and went on to secure a convincing victory. Spurs made their task more difficult after two players received red cards, allowing Chelsea to capitalise on their opponents’ disciplinary issues.

Caicedo delivered another strong performance in Chelsea’s dramatic 4-3 triumph over Tottenham in the 2024/25 campaign. On that occasion, he was deployed at right-back instead of his regular midfield role but still demonstrated his defensive discipline, technical ability and adaptability.

Statistics from Sofascore further illustrate his effectiveness during the encounter. Caicedo won both of his attempted tackles, made two interceptions and completed one clearance. He also prevailed in five ground duels and two aerial contests, while no opposing player managed to dribble past him.

The midfielder also contributed significantly to Chelsea’s play on the ball. He completed 44 passes from 49 attempts, giving him an impressive 90 per cent passing accuracy. In addition, he successfully completed his attempted cross and dribble, demonstrating his ability to contribute offensively without neglecting his defensive duties.

As Chelsea prepare to host their London rivals, Alonso will be hoping Caicedo can deliver another influential display. The Blues have shown signs of improvement in recent weeks, whereas Tottenham arrive at Stamford Bridge after recording a 3-1 win against Coventry City on Monday.

For Spurs, neutralising Caicedo’s influence could be essential to their chances of securing a positive result. His ability to break up opposition attacks, distribute the ball accurately and operate effectively in different positions makes him a dangerous opponent. Tottenham will need a disciplined performance if they hope to end his unbeaten record against them and leave Stamford Bridge with all three points.
