Chelsea FC v Sunderland Football Match will be played on 07.04.2013 at Stamford Bridge, London for a Premier League match. Neil Swarbrick will be the match referee.

Chelsea

Chelsea having only played a home match in the Europa League on Thursday will be hosting another home match against Sunderland in the Premier League. Chelsea is currently in 5th position in the Premier League table, falling below the top 4 position, as Arsenal won against West Bromwich and both Tottenham Hotspur and Arsenal having played a game more than Chelsea. Chelsea will be looking to gain the 3rd spot if they manage to win this match. Their away form has been poor recently, as they lost to Manchester City and Southampton but they managed to beat West Bromwich Albion and West Ham United at home. They will most likely be the hot favourites to win this match as they are playing at home.

If Mata and Hazard starts this game, they will have a better chance of gaining the 3 points.

Chelsea v Rubin Kazan Football Match will be played on 04.04.2013 in Stamford Bridge, London for a first leg UEFA Europa League match.

Chelsea

Chelsea having won the Champions League last season made history by being the first team to not qualify for the group stages of the Champions League after winning it in the previous year. This lead to Chelsea having to automatically enter the Europa League. They haven’t played in this league since 2002 before Abramovich became the owner. Chelsea have already played 2 matches in the Europa League, against Sparta Praha and Steaua Bucuresti, which they won the games on aggregate and will now take on Rubin Kazan.

Chelsea have recently knocked Manchester United out of the F.A Cup by starting a strong squad against them, it would be doubtful that Rafael Benitez will line-up the same squad of players for this match, as he likes rotating his players. I think Eden Hazard and Juan Mata will be expecting to start this match.

Chelsea’s key players are: Eden Hazard and Juan Mata.

Chelsea FC v Manchester United football match will be played on 01.04.2013 at Stamford Bridge, London for an FA Cup match. Phil Dowd will be the match referee.

The FA Cup holders Chelsea will be looking to continue defending their record as they were winners in 4 of the last 6 seasons in 7 overall. They won 22 out of 27 FA Cup matches and will be looking to add more silverware. Rafa Benitez has been taking big risks by resting most of their players in their last Premier League match against Southampton in which they lost 2-1 playing away. Chelsea are now playing 2 matches in the short space of 48 hours so it would be understandable to rest players since the players were also on international duty last week. Mata could miss this match due to illness and it would be a big upset for Chelsea if he doesn’t feature in this match. he is one of the most important key players for Chelsea this season, alongside Eden Hazard who is set to start in this match.

In the previous FA Cup match against Man United, Chelsea were 2 goals down but fought back with a 2-2 scoreline and earned an FA Cup match replay at home. Eden Hazard and Ramires was the goal scorers that helped Chelsea earn the replay. It will be interesting to see what line-up Chelsea will play in this match.
