Hull City vs Chelsea Match Preview
With their African stars gone to Angola for the African Cup of Nations, Chelsea\\\'s striking options are less abundant than normal, and Hull manager Phil Brown will know that this is his best chance to grab points against the league leaders. The injury to influential Hull midfielder Jimmy Bullard is a big loss for the Tigers, however, and with three draws and three losses in their last six league matches Brown and his men will likely feel fortunate if they can salvage a point out of the match. Chelsea are hoping that youngsters such as Daniel Sturridge can provide the necessary support to Nicolas Anelka. Sturridge appears up to the challenge, having scored two against Watford in FA Cup 3rd Round action at the weekend.
