Tomorrow’s game signifies a tough call in any hardened Villa fans prediction efforts. The Champions have won 6 from 7 though injuries and a superb home record for Villa against the Blues gives encouraging reading. Restricting the likes of Malouda, Anelka and Essien will be top of Houllier’s agenda with Drogba and Lampard out. Villa have lost just once in their last 11 home outing’s against Chelsea and I’m optimistic that they can stretch this run with a draw perhaps being most likely. Is my biased view swaying my judgement or am I being to cautious in my prediction? Let me know what your predicted outcome is along with line-ups and scorers. Good Luck.
