BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 (edited) Portsmouth vs Chelsea Chelsea travel to Fratton Park looking for their 10th consecutive win in all competitions. Chelsea emerged 2-0 victors the last time these two sides met, with Ivorian duo Salomon Kalou and Didier Drogba netting for the Blues. But with both teams affected by the African Cup of Nations, who will emerge as the hero as both sides look to consolidate their league standings?

PaulHopkins 1 Posted January 30, 2008 Share Posted January 30, 2008 I think this is gunna be a really hard game, but I think we will win 1-0. Yep definitely this will be tough - Portsmouth is not an easy place to go at all. I'd say 2-1 to us. Hopefully Lampard and Shevchenko will return. Maybe a bench spot for Ivanovic.

DavidEU 2,023 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Perhaps Ivanovic on the bench for this one, with Carvalho out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Well we always seem to win 2-0 there, pompey can't score at home and we have the best squad in europe. We're on form at the mo but you know it will end soon, won't be at fratton park tho. err 2-0 to us i guess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperSheva7 0 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Rumors about Benjani moving to Man City now, if they dont have him by Sat. i think we'll win 2-0. It'll be nice seeing Diarra again too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Layla 0 Posted January 31, 2008 Share Posted January 31, 2008 Forgot about Diarra being there waiting for a big club.. He better not scored against us! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 We should definately be able to go there and take the 3 points, we are playing well and not giving teams many chances. A big problem this time though will the absense of Carvalho, which will mean a start for either Ben Haim or Ivanovic, will be interesting to see who he goes with. After a extremely busy January with a very very small squad there will be a lot of tired and leggy players which could make it a bit harder for us. But i believe we will win this game.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted February 1, 2008 Author Share Posted February 1, 2008 That's pretty much how I feel. Without Lampard and Drogba, we need to scrape out wins but we have the quality to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 10,227 Posted February 1, 2008 Share Posted February 1, 2008 and with that quality i think we will defiiantly get a win in this game going for a 2-0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
