Chelsea V Liverpool | 6th Feb | 16:00 K/O

A day early, who cares? Should be a sexy match for obvious reasons Will be live on Sky Sports 1.


British record signing Fernando Torres is expected to start for Chelsea against his former club.
Chelsea's other expensive recruit, David Luiz, is also available.
Liverpool forward Luis Suarez is in contention for his first start after scoring on his debut as a substitute against Stoke in midweek.
Midfielder Christian Poulsen should overcome the back spasm that ruled him out of that match, but Joe Cole is a doubt with a knee problem. Carragher fit.

Is Carra back?

simply cannot wait for this match, I'm gonna go for Liverpool 2 (Suarez, Miereles) Chelsea 1 (Fernando Torres)

Think Chelsea will win 2-0.

Don't think Torres will play, but if he does I don't think he'll score, reckon it'll be someone like Malouda and Drogba.

3-0 Chelsea.

3-0 Chelsea. Torres, Essien, Anelka to score.

2 - 0 Liverpool. Lucas and Suarez.

With all the hype around the match, I'd take a draw tbh

His powers have grown. Don't take his jinxing lightly.

This. Extremely difficult match, if we can keep a good run of no losses going I will be happy.

Why somuch hype surrounding this match? None are title challengers, and nne are relegation canditates.

Seems to have gone way over the top for a slightly above mid-table clash

3-1 Chelsea for me, all the pre-match hype about Torres and Suarez will amount to nothing.

Few have the power to pull off the double-bluff-jinx. Even fewer have the heart to do it. Is he capable?

You're right. His body might not be able to take the strain. He may have to rip his soul into 7 pieces.

Who said Carragher's playing?

Well you're more than likely to be wrong.

Even if he does start, Carra along with the rest of the Liverpool defence will know how Torres works. Just hack at his ankles and he'll go down and sulk.

Can't even say anything bad about Liverpool in a non-Liverpool FC thread without scourges of scousers surging around you.

And they say we're the ones to blame for the arguing
