(Reuters) - Tottenham Hotspur are not as big a threat when striker Harry Kane is absent but Chelsea will plan for all contingencies in case the Englishman does play in Thursday's London derby, manager Thomas Tuchel said on Wednesday.

Kane, who has 12 goals and 11 assists in the league this season, is sidelined after picking up two separate ankle injuries in a 3-1 defeat by Liverpool last week.
