pretty ballsy, not quite sure im sold on chelsea losing this game

Heavy snow and cold in Peiraias over the past few days. The Karaiskaki will be rocking. Real couldn't come out with a win. I personally don't think Chelsea does either.

Like the call.

Good Luck.

how are the actual pitch conditions? any update? i can only see tons of snow in Athens in German News....frozen/snowy conditions might actually favour an under (even at 2)

 

[rolltide]

word is that lampard, terry, and anelka will be left out of chelsea lineup

 

[alfarac]

According to Grant, the only one probably on the bench is Terry. Lampard is starting for sure, and there is 50/50 possibility that he will go with either Drogba or Anelka, with Wright Phillips and Joe Cole on the wings.

Any info on pitch condition?

from bbc

Chelsea boss Avram Grant may omit captain John Terry and Frank Lampard from the starting line-up.
Grant could also leave Nicolas Anelka out of the XI leaving Didier Drogba as the lone striker, flanked by Joe Cole and Shaun Wright-Phillips.

Well, I will wait then until they come with the lineups, as I have got info from soccernet.com and skysports.com and they both say Lampard is starting... On Anelka its true, Grant could bench him as he is not going to mess with the 4-3-3 formation he has been using with Cole and SWP on the flanks and one lone striker, so either he or Drogba is benched. And Terry, since he is coming back from injury and not 100% fit, I don't think he will risk him.

Still, its going to be a no play for me on Chelsea. I just do not see them losing the game, 0-0 or 1-1 is what I think it would be, so I am going with the under on this one.

Yep, rolltide got that right.... No Lampard, Terry or Anelka in the Starting XI...

All on the bench today...
