Where: Stamford Bridge, Fulham, London
When: Sunday, Jan. 20, at 8:30 a.m. ET
HaHa.. Finally on this
sunday, two of the Premier League's most storied clubs will take the pitch at
Stamford Bridge, as The Blues takes on The Gunners in a
pivotal midseason match. Both clubs have world-class talent, and with so
much at stake, it should be a very entertaining showdown on Sunday.
What's at Stake?
For my team~ Chelsea, the match will be a critical one for Rafael
Benitez's men, as the Blues sit just one point ahead of Tottenham
Hotspur for the third Champions League berth, and a loss would
significantly hurt their chances at qualifying at all.
The Blues obviously have a much better chance at catching Manchester City, but
for Arsenal, who could be facing some big changes during the next transfer
window, a win over a top-flight opponent would be a nice consolation prize.
Thus far, the Gunners have endured a disappointing season and enter the weekend
outside the Champions League and Europa Cup berths in sixth place, but they'll
get an opportunity to change that, as they take on the third-place Blues on the
road.
Player
to Watch for Chelsea: Demba Ba
After coming over from Newcastle United, Demba Ba
enjoyed a successful debut with the Blues, scoring two goals against Southampton in FA Cup
play, but has gone scoreless in the two games since.
Ba has been very impressive since leaving
Germany in 2011 and should be an upgrade for Chelsea offensively, as he's
already found the back of the net 15 times this season.
The real challenge for Ba may be whether or not he can get Fernando Torres to
start scoring like he did prior to arriving at Stamford Bridge.
Prediction
This match features two underachieving Premier League heavyweights who
will be desperate for points, but Benitez will figure it out on how to
beat The Gunners. I believe in Benitez and I think that The Blues will win the
match against The Gunners. HaHaHa~
The Score Should Be
Chelsea FC : 3 - 1 : Arsenal FC
