This is literally the last fixture I'd pick to have right now.
I can't see anything other than a Chelsea win, they're just ridiculously strong all over, coincided with being at home and our history against big sides of recent.
If I had to envisage how tonight will pan out...
We will look pedestrian in comparison, and have no control of the game and composure on the ball.
Early goal for them, likely courtesy of Hazard... We will blow a golden opportunity against the run of play, either before or just after this goal.
A mistake just before half time will cost us another goal, go into half time with the game firmly in Mourinho's hands.
Second half, baffling substitution causes meltdown.
Quiet period in second half as Chelsea let the time tick away until one of our players give away a penalty and may/may not get a red card.
We implode from here on in and lose the game 4 or 5-0.
This is partially in hope of a jinx, failing that... It'll be interesting to see how wide of the mark I am.

That would be great, unfortunately I think we'll do well to get 0 points

It's a 'podcast' with a live crowd watching and discussing the match together. Not actually a podcast, just an event hosted by the guardian podcast team.

I'm feeling optimistic about this. I'm not saying we'll win, or even get a result but I feel we've suddenly got a foundation to build on so confident we'll put in a good performance - that's all I ask. If that performance returns points so be it, if not then we have our heads geld high for Palace.

Can tell you've had a few of them already yourself!
But I agree, staropramen is lovely

Actually very close to how I see things panning out. We're a mid-table team right now with the quality of players in the squad. A good win over another mid-table team doesn't change that overnight. I wonder what minute we'll see the confidence and self-belief drain from the faces of our players? My guess - 7th minute.

I think it will be pretty much the same as the City away game where we don't go away embarrassed (despite losing by a handful of goals), but instead are blaming a refereeing decision / guilt edge chance when really we know we'd probably have still lost anyway

Yep. Blowing for kick-off.
Really hope we put the same team out today as sunday, maybe bar chiriches. All through the centre of the park needs to remain the same imo, centre back pairing, midfield two and the two strikers. If it's good enough for Chelsea not to rotate it's good enough for us!
