Chelsea suffered a true blow in their campaign with their UEFA Champions League exit against Atletico Madrid, but they can get some frustration out of their system when Norwich City come to Stamford Bridge.
The Blues are still outside title contenders but they will have to win against their visitors in order to keep the only dream of a title they have left to dream.
Norwich need a win to climb back out of the drop zone as Sunderland took a three point advantage over them with their victory over Manchester United on Saturday.
It looks more a more like sacking Chris Houghton was the wrong decision for the Canaries and they could be forced to pay the ultimate price.
Jose Mourinho has some dissension in his ranks and could see several changes in the first team, while Norwich have no fresh injury concerns or set backs.
Chelsea XI: Schwarzer; Ivanovic, Cahill, Kalas, Azpilicueta; Lampard, Matic, Luiz; Salah, Eto'o, Willian.
Norwich XI: Ruddy; Whittaker, Turner, Martin, Olsson; Fer, Johnson, Howson; Snodgrass; Hooper, Redmond.
