The main thing you need to know is: William Gallas is out, and for a few weeks. Philippe Senderos will come in for only his third appearance of the season.
Elsewhere, Robin van Persie and Gilberto are both back, from foot and family problems respectively. Freddie Ljungberg, too, could be on the bench. I’d expect him to be joined by Julio Baptista, with Mathieu Flamini continuing alongside Gilberto and Cesc.
It’s fairly simple: tonight, a win is a must. Not an absolute must – qualification is still possible without it – but a must nonetheless.
I’m missing the game, but thanks to the wonders of Sky Plus will be watching it on an hour’s delay. Thankyou, Sky Plus. For so much.
