Everton vs Chelsea



FAPL, 10 February 2010, Goodison Park, 2000 KO

Carlo Ancelotti's Chelsea travel to Merseyside for a bout with Everton.

Having beaten Arsenal 2-0 in their last match, Chelsea head to Goodison Park to face David Moyes' in-form Everton in a tasty-looking top half encounter. The Blues are in delicious form, and their victory over Arsene Wenger's side has seen them open up a two-point lead at the top of the Premier League table.

However, Chelsea have not recorded a Premier League victory over Everton since April 2008 when Michael Essien's fine strike settled a tight encounter as Chelsea sought to chase down Manchester United. Three successive draws in the league have followed, including a 3-3 stalemate earlier in the season at Stamford Bridge.

However, with the return to form of Didier Drogba, coupled with Everton's loss in the Merseyside derby, will see the Toffees second-favourites in this encounter - but can Chelsea get the job done?

Chelsea F.C. vs Arsenal



FAPL, 7 February 2010, Stamford Bridge, 1600 KO

Carlo Ancelotti's Chelsea host Arsenal in a crucial top-of-the-table encounter.

Didier Drogba scored twice in a 3-0 rout of the Gunners at the Emirates Stadium in November for their third victory over Arsenal in a row; avenging their 2-1 loss at Stamford Bridge at the hands of Robin van Persie last campaign.

A victory for the Blues would see them take a massive step towards the title.

Burnley vs Chelsea F.C.



FAPL, 30 Jan 2010, Turf Moor, 1730 KO

Brian Laws takes on Chelsea in his first home match in charge, as Carlo Ancelotti's table-topping Blues look to continue their march to the title.

The former Sheffield Wednesday boss was not the universal candidate to replace the departing Owen Coyle - now on Bolton's payroll - and has already suffered two defeats in charge of his new side since taking over. The first was a Wayne Rooney-inspired demolition at Old Trafford against Manchester United in which the Clarets hit the post and found themselves denied time and time again by Edwin van der Sar.

The second was a 1-0 defeat against Reading thanks to a goal from the exceptional young talent of Gylfi Sigurdsson, who slotted home with 87 minutes on the clock. Burnley were foiled by superb saves by Adam Federeci, who impressed at Anfield with impressive stops in front of the Kop End as the Royals recorded their second Premier League scalp to continue their FA Cup renaissance.

Burnley, after a promising start to the season, have struggled somewhat. Despite doing what most have failed to do this season - leave the City of Manchester Stadium with a point rather than a trouncing - they have not recorded more than a single point away from home. Turf Moor has been their saving grace this season; beating the likes of Everton and Manchester United in front of their ferociously-vocal home supporters.

It seems a long time ago that Burnley were celebrating knocking Fulham, Chelsea and Arsenal out of the Carling Cup, and sampling the tantalising taste of a Final showdown with Manchester United. This season, Chelsea have hammered the northerners at Stamford Bridge and Arsenal (and Cesc Fabregas in particular) showed their class with a superb display at Turf Moor. Times have changed drastically for Burnley.

Things have been hard for Burnley fans across the country. Their away day blues have been added to by the loss of manager Owen Coyle, whose prolonged move to Bolton was worthy enough to rival the Chelsea-Lyon transfer saga of Michael Essien's move to SW6, has left the club in turmoil and perilously close to the relegation zone. Whilst Turf Moor has been key to their success this season, the Clarets will not relish the visit of Carlo Ancelotti's side, who have now increased their unbeaten run to seven games. Having scored an impressive sixteen goals over their past four matches (and conceding only three in return), the Blues have recovered their form after a stuttering December that has seen the likes of Arsenal and Manchester United make ground up on the one-time runaway leaders of the Premier League.

But their rivals' inability to take full advantage of Chelsea's shortcomings means that the Blues are just two points off top spot with two games in hand. And, as fate should have it, Arsenal and United play each other this weekend.

This could be the day Chelsea take a massive leap towards the title. This could be the day the dream becomes a reality; that three years of frustration could be on the verge of coming to an end. It might only be January, but with the likes of Drogba, Essien, Mikel and Kalou missing, this could be a pivotal moment for Chelsea's season.

Let's just hope to God that this time we make our chances count.

Petr Cech saves Mark Noble's penalty in a 1-0 win for Chelsea last season.

Opponents: West Ham United
Venue: Upton Park
Date: Sunday 20 December 2009
Kick-off: 4 PM

Chelsea travel to Upton Park looking for a fifth consecutive win away to West Ham.

Chelsea have been imperious so far this season but since December have stuttered slightly; drawing three and losing the other of their four games during the month.

A Premier League triple-header against Portsmouth, West Ham and then Birmingham City may be a welcome return to form for Carlo Ancelotti's men, although in a tough London derby it will be far from easy for the Blues.

Wed 16 Dec 09, FAPL, Stamford Bridge, 1945 KO



Chelsea host Portsmouth as they look to return to winning ways in the Premier League.

The Blues have stuttered in December so far, losing at Blackburn and Man City whilst drawing with Cypriot minnows APOEL Nicosia in the Champions League.

A Premier League double-header against Everton and Avram Grant's Portsmouth follows, with the Blues looking to maintain their two point lead over champions Manchester United.

12 Dec 09, FAPL, Stamford Bridge, 1500 KO



Chelsea host Everton in a crucial Premier League clash.

The Blues drew both Premier League fixtures against the Toffees last season, recording 0-0 draws both home and away, though under Guus Hiddink's management, Saturday's hosts won the FA Cup final 2-1 against this opposition.

Can the Blues record a first league win over Everton since April 2008?

Tuesday 08 December 2009, UEFA Champions League, Stamford Bridge, 7.45PM kick-off



Chelsea host APOEL Nicosia in their final Champions League group stage fixture.

Thanks to Nicolas Anelka's goal in Cyprus, the Blues emerged 1-0 victors to continue their 100% start to the European season. A 4-0 demolition and 2-2 draw with Atletico Madrid, and then a 1-0 win away in Porto ensured Chelsea's qualification as winners of Group D.

Carlo Ancelotti is likely to rest some key names having already qualified and with Everton arriving in West London the following Saturday, so it is an opportunity for the likes of Fabio Borini, Gael Kakuta and company to impress the manager heading into the Christmas period.

Chelsea have been imperious in Europe this season; unbeaten in five matches and having recorded four clean sheets. Sergio Aguero's two goals are the only ones Petr Cech has conceded in the competition, whilst Nicolas Anelka has scored three of Chelsea's nine goals thus far.

APOEL are on a very good run, and are unbeaten in eleven matches in the Cypriot league. Chelsea are scoring for fun, however, and with Ancelotti possibly resting a number of key players, it could be a very interesting encounter.

Can the Blues continue an unbeaten streak in Europe lasting thirteen months?
