Preview: Cardiff City vs. Chelsea

Sports Mole previews the Premier League clash between Cardiff City and Chelsea.

Chelsea travel to Cardiff City on Sunday knowing that they need three points to retain any hope of finishing as runners-up to the league champions.

The Blues are unable to win the title but boss Jose Mourinho will be keen to maintain his record of having ended each domestic campaign in a top-two position.

Mourinho could be without John Terry, Frank Lampard and Samuel Eto'o, but Eden Hazard is expected to be recalled to the starting lineup.

Cardiff boss Ole Gunnar Solskjaer saw his side get relegated at Newcastle United last weekend, but the Norwegian will want to end their brief stay in the Premier League on a high.

Solskjaer could hand a start to Craig Bellamy while also giving an opportunity to include a few of the club's reserve players in the first-team squad.
