The closer you get towards the end of the season, the more important the fixture list becomes. Battling on numerous fronts poses a problem and the teams threatened by relegation continuously improve as they battle to avoid the drop. At this stage, there are no easy games. However, Chelsea are fortunate with the final ten games their fixture list has thrown up. They face the likes of Aston villa, Crystal Palace, Stoke, Swansea, Sunderland, Norwich and Cardiff between now and the end of the season. These are all matches that you'd expect Chelsea to dominate and pick up maximum points. They do have difficult games as they have to travel to White Hart Lane and Anfield, as well as welcoming London rivals Arsenal to Stamford Bridge. Yet you'd still back Chelsea to pick up decent results in these games. Title rivals Arsenal are still to face Tottenham, Chelsea, Manchester City and Everton in the next few weeks while second placed Liverpool have Manchester United, Tottenham and Manchester City as well as that key clash with Chelsea. Even Manchester City have difficult games with the Manchester derby, Arsenal, Liverpool and Everton still to play. When it comes to fixtures, Chelsea have the best hand and they're sure to make it count.
