Chelsea preview

Arsenal will, no doubt, pass the ball in small triangles and work their way up and down the pitch in a steady tempo creating the illusion of being in control. After 40 minutes (or 5 if we're unlucky), Drogba will get his first chance and score - game over. 2nd half - who knows? Pessimistic but realistic.

Alternative scenario: Arsenal play an aggressive, high-tempo game, creating chances and opening up a 2-0 lead at half-time. Arsenal show incredible belief and fight to maintain their challenge for the Premiership and a determination to beat their rivals. Fabregas shows real leadership, cajoling and encouraging the team. Sagna doesn't put a foot wrong. 2nd half - who knows? Overly optimistic based on too much Christmas spirit.
