Premier League title contenders Chelsea play host to relegation-threatened Stoke City in the FA Cup fourth round clash at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues have seriously raised their form of late, winning six straight fixtures in all competitions so no wonder they are just 1/4 to extend their impressive run of results.
And having also kept five clean sheets in last seven, the Blues look a good bet to win this clash to nil at odds of 19/20.
Jose Mourinho may be without Fernando Torres and Marco van Ginkel, but January signing Nemanja Matic, Demba Ba and Andre Schurrle are all in line to start the match.
Meanwhile, Stoke have other things on their minds, with a five-match winless run in the league seeing the Potters slip into the danger zone.
And even if Mark Hughes remains adamant he will give his side the best possible chance of progressing into the next round, Stoke’s chances look slim at best.
The Potters have no failed to get anything from last six fixtures on the road, while failing to score in four of last five, meaning they clearly face an uphill task in London.
The Welsh manager is hoping Asmir Begovic will return to the side, while new signing John Guidetti could start his first game for the club. Robert Huth and Andy Wilkinson are out injured.
