After a comfortable 2-0 win in midweek against Galatasaray, Chelsea secured a spot in the last eight of the Champions League with a 3-1 aggregate over Turkish side.
Jose Mourinho’s men now turn attention to the Premier League as they host cross town rivals Arsenal in what is arguably going to play a significant role in this season’s title race. Chelsea’s shock defeat to Aston Villa last weekend blew the title race wide open and as this turns out to be a must win game for either sides in the race to the finish fir the title.
Can yet hosts end the Gunners’ dreams and what would be their strongest lineup. We here at Soccersouls have the answer for our readers.
Petr Cech will have a tough outing thanks to Arsenal’s attacking verve.
Aston Villa’s pace did cause trouble to Chelsea’s centre back pairing of John Terry and Gary Cahill but the English duo were sublime against Galatasaray in midweek. Arsenal will have quite a tough time breaking their resilience at the back as both look ice cool in times of danger and look assured in possession. Branislav Ivanovic will start in the right back slot while the brilliant Cesar Azpilicueta takes his place on the left, continuing to impress and keeping Ashley Cole out from the side.
Frank Lampard and Nemanja Matic will have to hold fort in midfield as Ramires is suspended having picked up a straight red card thanks to a bone crunching tackle on El Ahmadi last weekend. Lampard was a bright light in midweek and thanks to Matic’s screening abilities, the former can barge forward helping in attacks. Oscar will start in his advanced role in his favourite number ten position while Willian is suspended meaning Andre Schurrle will play on the right.The ever dazzling and brilliant Eden Hazard will start on the left gradually roaming in the pockets of space behind the lone striker up front.
Fernando Torres hardly made an impact at Villa Park and while Eto’o was brilliant in the midweek, expect Mourinho to stick with the Cameroonian International for this one.
