Chelsea will host West Ham United today before the bulk of their team heads out for international duty, and picking up three points will assure that Chelsea begin the month of April in the Champions League positions. We've also got Tottenham in action with Fulham, so Chelsea could even jump as high as third while still keeping their game in hand.
I'm going to post this thread earlier than usual, so that you guys have a place to talk about the Tottenham/Fulham game from the moment it kicks off. I'll update it with the lineups as soon as they are announced, so refresh accordingly and you'll see them.
Chelsea: Petr Cech; Cesar Azpilicueta, Gary Cahill, David Luiz, Ashley Cole; Frank Lampard, Ramires; Victor Moses, Juan Mata, Eden Hazard; Demba Ba
Chelsea bench: Ross Turnbull, Branislav Ivanovic, John Terry, Ryan Bertrand, John Obi Mikel, Oscar, Fernando Torres
West Ham: Jaaskelainen, Demel, Reid, Collins, O'Brien, O'Neil, Diame, Collison, Jarvis, Vaz Te, Carroll
West Ham bench: Spiegel, McCartney, Pogatetz, Tomkins, Taylor, C.Cole, Chamakh
Earlier this morning, the U19 side breezed past Juventus by a 4-1 score to reach the NextGen Series semifinals. I probably should have scheduled an open thread for it, as it seems like a good number of Chelsea fans were watching.
