What do Liverpool, Tottenham and Man Utd have in common with Blackpool? Answer...... Liverpool and Tottenham have lost at Bloomfield Road, Man Utd.... nearly. Tottenham's defeat came as recently as two weeks ago. Another question for you. What do Bolton and Blackpool have in common? Both matches moved to a Monday night stopping yours truly from going. Up yours Sky!!
Blackpool maybe fifteenth in the table, but they will be 'up for it,'
Ian Holloway won't accept anything less. So Chelsea will have to match The Tangerines pound for pound, with effort and determination.
Even though Chelsea won 4-0 at The Bridge, at the beginning of season, tonight won't be that easy.
There have been a few occasions this season where individuals haven't turned up and with Blackpool being right up there on the North West coast, it will be a cold, cold night.
There are doubts about Mikel and Luiz's fitness. Fingers crossed that the 'hairy' one is fit enough to continue his amazing Chelsea start.
With Man Utd getting beat again and Arsenal only drawing against Sunderland at the weekend, Chelsea have a great opportunity to close the gap on the top two.
If Chelsea need more incentive and motivation to pursue a victory tonight, Chelsea can pull three points clear of Tottenham for the much 'coveted' 4th spot, after Tottenham could only draw at Wolves yesterday.

I'd definitely give Zhirkov a run out after his contribution against the mancs.
I suppose the league could be back on again...but there's a lot of ifs still to consider - too many just yet.
We should just concentrate on us and not the rest...and perhaps save our best for "corrupt cup"...!
