Blackpool boss Holloway will not be intimidated by Chelsea

Blackpool boss Ian Holloway insists they won't be intimidated facing a rejuvenated Chelsea tonight.

Holloway is convinced his players have it in them to upset the odds once again.

"We've talked about what went wrong at their (Chelsea's) place, and spoken about Wolves very quickly and then moved on because it is important not to dwell on things," Holloway said.

"You can only do something about the next one and that is something we have handled really well.

"What we need is a response and who's to say we can't do to Chelsea what we did to Tottenham."

He added: "If you look at the Tottenham game they had more possession, double the shots, but our finishing was lethal on the day.

"We need things to go our way and they will have to go better than they have ever to get three points off Chelsea.

"I believe we can get three points but we are going to have to be a tad fortunate and play the best we have played."
