I'm confident about this one. Chelsea didn't have much trouble against small teams at home last year. It was our away form against them that made us lose the league and that seems better but it's too early to tell.

Also, Everton has been very strong and we do well against strong teams. The real challenge will come in the next away games against mid table teams, Crystal Place and then Man United. This is where we've struggled last season.

I like this Swansea team. Their midfield can cause us some problems (Ki-Shelvey-Sig) plus obviously the Bony threat and their pace on the flanks.

Another tough test and a potential slip up but we can do it.

Courtois

Ivan - Cahill - JT - Azpi/Luis

Matic - Fabregas - Oscar

Schurrle - Costa - Hazard

First time this season that we play 3 games in a week, with a huge match at the end of it. So expect to see a little bit of rotation with Luis, Azpilicueta, Schurrle, Willian and probably Ramires starting either the Swansea or the Schalke match, but not all 3.

Yeah, it's going to be tough, considering that all 3 games are important. At least we play Swansea and Schalke at the Bridge, so we won't have to travel between those games. I expect to see a lot of rotation or the players will be exhausted by the time we face City.

City will be exhausted too, they travel to London, Munich and back to Manchester to face us in the same time frame.
