Alex McLeish has done a grand job at the Birmingham helm and looks like being able to claw his Midlands side out of trouble. Chelsea, even without their African Nations Cup squad members, will still feel an away win is a must.

What do you think will happen? What are your predictions? Who should be picked, who should be dropped?
