Chelsea going to make another change as Alex arrives to take over from Ferreira for the home side.

Luizs rises above Sammon to head out as Wigan go long. Slack play by Caldwell enables Chelsea to reclaim the ball. All as bit scrappy at the moment.

Another strong run by Drogba. He tries to pick out Torres for the killer goal, but just too much pace on the cross. So close to the second for the home side, but Torres fails to connect.
73'
We resume play as Ramires limps off to the side of the pitch. Drogba on the break for the home side.
