Impossible to see past Chelsea




(First Published: Sunday 7th March 2010 at 13:08hrs GMT)





We've been backing Stoke in this season's FA Cup and they didn't let us down with resilient displays against Arsenal and Manchester City.

Knocking those two out of the competition was no mean feat but it's difficult to see Tony Pulis' battlers getting any change out of Chelsea.

Carlo Ancelotti's side may have lost their last two games and maybe, and it is a huge maybe, their sheen of invincibility at home may have gone forever after Man City's convincing 4-2 win.

But the fact the Blues had two players sent off and they had Frank Lampard's late penalty to add more respectability to the scoreline suggests it will just go down as a freak result.

Stoke will badly miss Ryan Shawcross, an excellent defender who would have been overworked at Stamford Bridge.

They will fight for all their worth to try and secure a replay and then it really would be a different game altogether at the Britannia Stadium.

But, with the benefit of another home draw in the cups, it's hard to see past Chelsea booking another place at Wembley.

Odds of 3/10 aren't going to make anybody rich but we fancy the draw half time/Chelsea full time option at a cracking 7/2 with several firms - including Betfred and Ladbrokes.
