Predicting the Chelsea team is almost as easy as picking a winner in a one-horse race at the moment. Ok, perhaps not quite that easy.
But with so much of the team running like clockwork and injuries at a minimum Chelsea have a very settled look about them.
The back five is picking itself right now with Filipe Luis struggling to get a look in in the league.
With Ramires, Drogba and Schurrle all expected back Chelsea have great options once more.
Fitness permitting Ramires will start alongside Matic with Hazard, Fabregas and Willian ahead of them. As usual it’s almost a crime to leave Schurrle out. Jose could of course bring Fabregas back into the midfield ‘2’ alongside Matic but, being an away game, Chelsea will probably opt for the solidity of two defensive midfielderss. They already have easily enough going forward in that system.
Up top expect the on fire Diego Costa to start. So here’s our strongest eleven, injuries permitting. Chelsea fans: agreed?
