A look ahead to Boxing Day's Premier League fixture at Carrow Road, Norwich host Chelsea on Wednesday afternoon as the Blues Spanish striker Fernando Torres is now in form. Having score in Chelsea's last encounter with Ashton Villa which ends 8-0 in favor of Chelsea. The match is expected to have plenty of goal as it has been with both sides previously.
The Blues are unbeaten in their last eight matches against Norwich in all competitions. Norwich's recent 10-game unbeaten run came to an end away at West Brom. Captain Grant Holt will be likely to return from a hamstring injury, but Steven Whittaker is out, together with John Ruddy, Andrew Surman and Ryan Bennett all sidelined.

Good news for Chelsea as midfielder John Mikel Obi is back after serving his three-game ban by the FA. But unfortunately, the Blues captain John Terry is unlikely to be fit again due to his kneel injury.
