Chelsea skipper John Terry is confident their squad can handle a long campaign.
Chelsea will end up playing a club record 70 games this season if they reach the Europa League and FA Cup Finals but Terry says they are ready for the challenge.
He said: "This is when the strength and depth of our squad will come into play. We, as players, have to be prepared for what is coming up.
"We are used to competing on several fronts at this stage in the season and if results go the right way when the fixtures are close together like this, it can be fantastic for building momentum.
"If we can put a run together in all competitions, we could be in a couple of finals and finish in a good position in the League."
