Jose Mourinho focused on top four ahead of Tottenham Hotspur match

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho says that the club's position in the top four will edge closer to being safe if they beat Tottenham Hotspur on Saturday.

Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho believes that the club's top-four ambitions could soon be realised if they manage to beat Tottenham Hotspur at Stamford Bridge on Saturday.

The Blues are currently at the top of the Premier League table with a four-point lead over second-placed Liverpool.

Throughout the season, Mourinho has played down the Blues' title chances, insisting that top four is the priority, and that remains the case with 10 games left to play.

"We want to try to win," Chelsea's official Twitter page quotes Mourinho as saying. "They will do the same. We want our top-four position safe. The biggest threat for that is Spurs.

"If we beat Spurs tomorrow then our top four objective will be in a good position. We have to try and win the next match. It doesn't matter the opponent, the stadium, just that we try to win."

Spurs are currently fifth, four points adrift of the final Champions League spot.
