Tottenham defender Ledley King has said that he has always enjoyed facing Chelsea at home.

The Blues haven't won a Premier League game at White Hart Lane since before 2006, since when Spurs have won three and drawn two of their five meetings in North London.

King, who returned to the lineup against Sunderland last weekend, has been given a 50-50 chance to feature for Tottenham tonight.

"I've always enjoyed these games," King told the club's official website. "We've been good at home against them in recent years and we want to keep that run going.

"They are a good team with good players and you know a team like Chelsea isn't going to go through a bad period for too long with the characters in the squad.

"They've dug themselves out when things looked against them, turned it around and I'm sure they always look forward to playing against us as well."

Fourth-placed Chelsea currently trail Tottenham by two points in the Premier League.
