Chelsea prepare to entertain Hull City at Stamford Bridge at lunchtime on Saturday, aiming to preserve their record of never having lost at home to the visitors. The Blues have won an impressive 13 of the 18 meetings between the two sides, drawing the other 5.
The most recent encounter between these two sides at Stamford Bridge was less than a year ago, in February 2009, when they played out a goalless draw in a Premier League match.
