Chelsea and Liverpool ...........


...... meet for the 11th time in two years today, in the Community Shield at the Millenium Stadium.

I expect to see a different Chelsea this year, with Ballack and Lampard eager to get forward and Shevchenko joining Drogba up front, they have a host of attacking options. Feel that rather than
killing off games, they will try to provide a little more entertainment.

The newly shorn Jose Mourinho, admits that we will see a more adventurous Chelsea this season and he has had in depth conversations with Roman Abramovich along these lines, today they will be without Gallas, Makele, Cech and Joe Cole.

Liverpool seem unable to keep a clean sheet, but also have a lot of threat going forward. Jermaine Pennant's pace will cause them problems out wide and Bellamy, Gerrard, Crouch and the hugely talented Mark Gonzalez, should all see some action.

With so much talent on show, the "over" looks an attractive bet, expect 3+ goals ,but feel that taking the over "2" goal asian line is a 5 star bet.

5 points over 2 goals Chelsea- Liverpool 1.83 asian line.

Good Luck.
