Torres to Start – Chelsea's Possible Starting XI vs Schalke

Torres to Start - Chelsea's Possible Starting XI vs SchalkeAfter starting the Champions league campaign in the worst of fashions against Basel. Blues bounced back on Match-day 2 to emphatically win 4-0.
However, now Jose Mourinho’s men face probably the toughest team in the group, German side Schalke.
Schalke might not be flying high in the Bundelisga but they have been fantastic in the Champions League.
They maintain perfect winning record and have not conceded a single goal as yet.
Chelsea who are in brilliant form themselves, still cannot be considered favorites to beat the Germans in their own backyard.
Jose Mourinho may have a major selection dilemma for this fixture as next weekend Chelsea will have to face 2012 premier league champions Manchester City who are in fantastic form as well.
On the other hand, after losing the first game in the group, Mourinho’s men cannot afford to drop points and especially lose against Schalke tonight. That will hamper their chances of qualifying to the knockout stages.
Eto’o scored his first goal for Chelsea last weekend but it is likely that Spaniard Fernando Torres will be given first start after his return from injury as he was in decent form.
The Cameroonian may as well start against City. Here is Chelsea’s possible starting XI vs Schalke.

Prediction: Schalke 1-2 Chelsea
