On one hand Chelsea looked back to near their best against Palace recently, but on the other hand Palace also made Villa look like Brazil last night so that makes me question just how well Chelsea did play in that game.
I'm going for 2-1 to the Albion, Rondon and McAuley both to score.
COYB!
If Chelski play like they did against C Palace and IF we concede early i reckon it could end up 4-0,
However don't concede early at best we could scrape a 0-0,
I hope to come on here and bow to your superiority if you're right though Tibby.
And will be delighted to do so
Haha I'm definitely being a little bit over optimistic, but my reasoning behind it is that we're actually not that far away from safety of relegation this season imo and this must lift a little bit of the pressure off of us. Plus Chelsea are under the most pressure really given their position below us in the league.
Most people quote the 40 point mark as being the number you want to hit, but I can see 36 points being enough and we're only 10 points away from that now and we've got 18 games to get those points. 3 more wins and a draw and we could even lose 14 games along the way.
I think this is why we've seen us improve in the league as the pressure is easing off gradually now as we inch toward the first target which is always avoiding relegation.
Would be great to get a good result at Stamford Bridge as we've come close a few times recently!
