Tottenham boss Andre Villas-Boas is looking forward to his first clash with Chelsea when his former side visit White Hart Lane on Saturday.

Villas-Boas is also sure his international players will not be jaded after more than a week away from the club. They returned to training together on Friday morning but despite only having a light session, he insists there will be no hangover this weekend. "I certainly don't expect any problems," he said. "Lot of players have recovery sessions as normal. "We have left them on very, very light sessions in the gym with the medical department. So we don't expect any kind of problems at the moment, everyone is feeling okay. "We are still at the beginning of the league, the players haven't accumulated so much fatigue throughout the season for that to happen. "We have enough time to recover the players. We should be fresh and fine and powerful in the same way."
