It's going to be a tough game (let's not give
them a 2 goal start this time, please), and interesting to see
how Wenger shuffles the midfield with both Parlour
and Vieira suspended. So, no Petit-vs-Vieira clash
yet.
Keown is ready to return following his 90 minutes in the
reserve win over Tottenham. It's not impossible that
Campbell will be rested following the England games.
Dixon & Luzhny are both injured, so Lauren will have to play
at right-back limiting the options in midfield. It'll be a
big game for Van Bronckhorst as he partners (presumably)
the Grimster in central midfield (with Freddie & Bob out
wide). Inamoto is in the squad too though. Wiltord has had a stomach problem but is expected to
be ok.
Chelsea saw Ferrer and Cuducini return for their reserves.
Di Matteo and Ambrosetti are out injured.
They played with 5 in midfield in their last match against Southampton, but will probably go for a more attacking
system maybe with Zola returning to the starting line-up.
I think the game is live on Norwegian telly - the channel
that some pubs get.
