win at the Stamford Bridge? Since February 2006, Chelsea have not been defeated at home, a great record. Which club will be the first to end Chelsea's unbeaten run at home? Will it be an EPL club at all? Or a foreign club?

True, forgot that match. Still, will a foreign club win there (again) before an EPL club does?
An unbelievable record really.

Blut, I corrected myself that defeat to Barça was in Feb 06, so technically since that defeat they haven’t suffered another. Really is impressive, credit to Mourinho.
Chelsea can beat any EPL team at the Bridge; the likes of Boro and Villa this season have come close so maybe one day one team will sneak through.

Yes, I just looked it up. Barca was the last team that beat them at the Bridge, Chelsea had 10 men on the pitch for most of the match though.
Makes the record even more impressive. From the EPL clubs, I'd say Arsenal are the most likely. But I can see them losing a CL match at the Bridge before they lose a league match.

It is a formidable record. I would imagine the best chance is for one of the mid-table sides to surprise them and catch them on an off day. We've come close once or twice (and were the last side to beat them there in the league), but they always seem capable of raising their game enough in the big matches. Maybe it's time West Ham got one over them! They've shocked us and Man Utd enough times in recent seasons (they are afterall the only side to beat us at the Emirates and were the last side to beat us at Highbury - I can't remember the last game we lost at home to a side other than West Ham, might well have been Chelsea)!

That would be very painful I could see it being a team like Middlesborough or Villa.

Well when we were 3-1 up, with 18mins to go last year in the F.a Cup, that was a good chance than anybody!

True. Villa had a great chance this year as well. Even Fulham came close.

To this day, I'm convinced that game cost Jol his job in the long run.
