Why is there no Chelsea game in this Premier League?

At 4am on February 15, Beijing time, in the 27th round of Premier League, Chelsea visited craven Farm to challenge Fulham. At present, Chelsea ranks fifth in the standings with 44 points, while Fulham ranks 12 with 30 points. Aspect 1: Chelsea fight for honor. Because the last league lost to Liverpool, Manchester United won this derby, and the gap between Chelsea and the top has reached 13. Ancelotti can only admit: "The chances of winning the league are slim. The most important thing for us now is to keep the top four in the league. We can't lose the qualification for the Champions League next season. " For last season's league and FA Cup double winners, every next league is a fight for honor. They must defend the dignity of the defending champion. Lampard, the core midfielder, also said: "We must win every game left." Aspect 2: Chelsea's two new signings started against Liverpool in the last round. Although Torres entered the starting line-up, the golden boy who experienced twists and turns was not at his best, and David Lewis came on as a substitute in the second half. Macroscopically speaking, neither of them made their debut in the team. This round of Fulham, Ancelotti is very likely to let Torres and David Luis start at the same time. Carlo Ancelotti said happily: "With the arrival of Fernando Torres and david luiz, our squad has become stronger. The team lineup was good, but now it is better. " Aspect 3: Drogba is afraid of being abandoned to play Liverpool. Ancelotti arranged for Torres and Drogba to partner as double centers, and the result was not good. Therefore, in training, the Italians began to try to make Torres single-arrow, and Drogba, who has not recovered from malaria, enter the substitute lineup. Therefore, the British media speculated that in the battle with Fulham, Torres is likely to partner with Salomon Kalou and Nicolas Anelka as three strikers, and Drogba will be excluded from the starting lineup.
