Chelsea forward, Nicolas Jackson is reportedly ready to battle hard ahead of the Blues’ mouth-watering clash against Tottenham Hotspur on Thursday.

The 22-year-old scored a memorable hat-trick in north London during the Blues’ 4-1 victory in his first meeting with Spurs.

According to Chelsea’s official website, Jackson recognized the significance of that win and thinks Chelsea will need to perform at their peak this time around at Stamford Bridge.

“It was an amazing night,” Jackson reminisced.

“I was still quite new and I didn’t know until I scored the hat-trick how important it was for the club. It was a big, big derby and I was very happy. Every time I sleep it’s in my head, the hat-trick. So good memories in their stadium.

“I hope we create the same memories in our stadium. We are going to fight because London derbies are not easy.

“Last week we lost one and we don’t want that to happen again. So we’re going to fight as a team, fight for the club, and it’s a derby that is very important for the club and the players.

“We are going to fight for it. We will try to do it as a team, one family, and try to make the supporters happy.”

Jackson made the move to the Premier League last summer from Villarreal in the top division of Spain. He has scored 13 goals for the Blues in all competitions.

Though, his first season has been characterized with squandering of chances, the Senegalese will hope to improve his goal-scoring abilities next season and beyond.
