Tottenham were able to secure back-to-back Premier League home victories against two of their London rivals after comfortably dispatching Chelsea on Sunday afternoon.
Goals from Oliver Skipp and Harry Kane settled the contest in favour of the hosts at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium with the Blues, like West Ham last weekend, unable to beat Fraser Forster.
After a damaging week where Spurs lost to Leicester and AC Milan - along with several first-team players to long-term injuries - Antonio Conte's men, currently led by assistant head coach Cristian Stellini, have responded perfectly by winning their last two league games to place themselves firmly in the top four race.

With that being said, football.london takes a look at all the latest injury news from north London following another derby triumph.
Son Heung-min
The South Korean forward was once again named on the bench for the clash against Chelsea. In the 79th minute, he replaced Dejan Kulusevski and a few minutes later his corner was flicked on by Eric Dier and converted at the back post by Harry Kane.
What Cristian Stellini said: "Son had a problem that he brings with him for a bit of time. Sometimes player that has a problem needs time to recover and be well prepared for the next period."
Expected return date: Available Sheffield United (A) March 1
Rodrigo Bentancur
Midfielder Rodrigo Bentancur suffered a severe knee injury against Leicester in mid-February. Tottenham then confirmed the Uruguayan had ruptured the anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. Bentancur then underwent successful surgery last week.
What Cristian Stellini said: "He feels pain at the moment. We know only this but he can walk so it's important to feel that he came back to the bench with his leg [injury] and we hope that we can check in a few days that Rodrigo can feel better and he play soon."
Expected return date: N/A
Ryan Sessegnnon
Spurs wing-back Ryan Sessegnon is set to miss around six weeks of action after sustaining a hamstring injury, football.london understands. The 22-year-old suffered the injury in training ahead of yesterday's clash, football.london understands, leaving Croatian veteran Ivan Perisic as the only fit natural left wing-back for the foreseeable future.
Expected return date: Late March
Hugo Lloris
Tottenham's first-choice goalkeeper Hugo Lloris missed the clash with Leicester after sustaining knee ligament damage in the win over Manchester City. Fraser Forster is set to fill in while the experienced shot stopper recovers, with over a month on the sidelines in the pipeline.
What Cristian Stellini said: "We are all disappointed about Hugo and his injury. However, we have a good experienced goalkeeper [in] Fraser Forster with great experience in the Premier League and Champions League. We have a tough five weeks in front of us."
Expected return date: Late March/Early April
Yves Bissouma
While assistant coach Cristian Stellini claimed in his press conference that everyone was available for the clash except for Lloris, there was another twist in store. An Instagram video appeared to show midfielder Yves Bissouma on crutches and wearing a protective boot in the dressing room.
It was later revealed to be a stress fracture in his left ankle, with surgery required to make sure he could recover properly. The timeframe will be better understood after the surgery has been successfully completed.
Expected return date: N/A
