Spurs striker Kane: Without Diego Costa, Chelsea are vulnerable

Tottenham striker Harry Kane believes they can upset Chelsea this week.

Chelsea will be without top scorer Diego Costa due to suspension and that, coupled with Tottenham's improved display in yesterday's 2-1 win over Everton, gives Kane hope that Spurs can pull off a huge shock.<> "We're full of confidence," he said. "Obviously we are coming off three wins in a row now in all competitions, so we'll take that confidence into the game on Wednesday.

"We're looking to get the result. Obviously Chelsea are going to be trying to do the same at home, but they are missing their main man up front. So they have to change a few things, and we're feeling good.

"The Chelsea game is not the be-all or end-all, but it would add to the great momentum we have at the moment if we could beat them. That is what we want to do, and we will give ourselves the best possible chance."
