Chelsea(DLDDW) vs Bolton Wanderers(WLLDW)
Probable Lineup (Chelsea):
Cech,Cahill,Ivanovic,David Luiz,Bertrand,Obi Mikel,Meireles,Ramires
Drogba,Sturridge
Probable Lineup (Bolton):
Bogdan,Steinsson,Wheater,Ricketts,Ream,Reo-Coker

Chelsea current form continues; failed to shine in Europe and suffered a dent to their moods to enter Quarters stage as they lost to Napoli by 1-3 in Champions League. On the other hand, Bolton lifted their form by winning in FA Cup; 2-0 against Millwall.
As far as the stats are concerned, Head to Head these two have played 96 matches where Chelsea has 40 wins under their belt, 31 losses & 25 draws. Previous stats convey a message that no one can afford to take BOLTON lightly. If we look at Chelsea's last five home matches, the club has 2 wins, 2 draws and 1loss. Their low in form continues in EPL as well and seek a breakout from this situation with a bang; and for this whole team has to work really hard specially Torres. Their top scorer Frank Lampard with 9 goals, has fully recovered from the calf injury but had to start from the bench in last game; he must have more games to his name to change Blues fate. Mata is the star who had most assist (8) and one of the in-form man but not enough for Blues to win.
Bolton could be Positive Prospect for Chelsea as they are struggling at the moment. Furthermore, it's not an easy job for them to handle various injuries and the loss of few significant players in 2011/12. Undoubtedly, Daniel Sturridge of Chelsea is one of those players. This magnificent Striker has spent the second half of previous season on loan at Bolton, and played a vital part in their notable performances.
Bolton has not won against Chelsea since December 2003 in both away and home games. This season they have conceded 51 goals in 25 matches and have scored only 29 goals. Klasnic is top scorer with 7 goals and Eagles has been a good playmaker this season for BOLTON and has most assists (6). In their last meeting with Chelsea in October last year they were thrashed by them the score was 5-1. But at this time Chelsea is having average run in the league and struggling and they can count upon this and register a win against them as they have not won a game against Chelsea March 2004. Or it will be Chelsea who will lift their form with a big win and hope Torres, Lampard, Drogba and Sturridge all gets a goal.
