Blackburn
come into this game with the news that one of their star
strikers Matt Jansen, has amazingly been loaned to Coventry
City until the rest of the season. This is a big blow.
Although they are 11th in the Premier League, Blackburn
have a terrible away record, which reads as played 13,
won three, drawn five and lost five. Their recent away
form, however, is awful. In their last six away games
they have only taken three points out of a possible eighteen.
Chelsea,
sitting fourth in the league, are playing extremely well
at the moment and have won four out of their last six
home games. I feel the odds offered on a Chelsea home
win are quite attractive at 1.6. Chelsea are playing well,
with strikers Zola, Hasselbaink and Gudjonsen linking
well and scoring goals, while Blackburn are on a bad run
are will have their confidence dented with the loss of
Jansen. Take a Chelsea home win.

TIP:Chelsea @ 1.6
