Chelsea v Blackburn Betting Preview - Wednesday, 31 January 2007

After several set-backs, John Terry is finally fit and ready to rumble at Stamford Bridge on Wednesday night.

The combative captain will relish the physical challenge that Blackburn Rovers bring.

Both sides will be primed for a tough encounter after effortless FA Cup victories, but Mark Hughes faces a defensive crisis. He probably rues selling Lucas Neill, having lost Robbie Savage and Andre Oojer in the space of a week with broken legs, then Ryan Nelson with a hamstring problem picked up against Luton.

His side looked soft when giving Watford only their second Premiership win last week, so Jose Mourinho's side - unbeaten in 56 homes league games - will be confident of emulating their last two home victories over Blackburn, scoring four times on both occasions.
