Spurs and Villa meet in desperation derby and Andoni Iraola faces test on south-coast return Premier League top scorers: check the latest standings Chelsea have not won this west London derby since Brentford’s first Premier League season. Each visit since October 2021’s 1-0 win , Ben Chilwell the scorer, has been a draw.
