We are heading into match week 27 this weekend, and the Blues will host Tottenham in an early kick-off at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

Michael Oliver will be the centre referee for this game.

Assistants: Stuart Burt, Simon Bennett.

Fourth official: Kevin Friend.

The VAR ref is David Coote. Assistant VAR: Adam Nunn.

Michael Oliver has officiated 20 league games this season, and has issued 64 yellow cards and no red cards.

Michael Olivier has previously taken charge of Chelsea matches this term at home to Liverpool and at Burnley. He was also the man in the middle for Mourinho’s first game as Spurs boss away at West Ham in November.
