Multi-club ownership model: The good, the bad and the ugly behind football's newest structural trend
The real concern comes down to football's growing trend of big corporations taking up slices of the world game at the expense of smaller teams.
Chelsea have continued their winning ways following the international break with a 2-0 win against West Brom at Stamford Bridge.
FINAL SCORE:
Chelsea 2
West Brom 0
Chelsea host West Bromwich Albion at Stamford Bridge for Matchday 12 of the English Premier League. Join The Roar for live scores from 2:00am (AEDT).
Following the international break, Chelsea return to Stamford Bridge looking to keep their impressive 2014/15 EPL campaign rolling along.
The Blues are yet to hit the losers list this season, only suffering two draws in what has otherwise been a rather flawless stretch.
They secured a 2-1 win (away from home) over a struggling Liverpool outfit last start in the competition, and will be boosted by a return home for their first match at the Bridge in three weeks.
West Brom arrive off the back of a 2-0 loss (at home) at the hand of Newcastle.
Currently sitting in 13th place on the EPL ladder, the Baggies have only registered three wins for the season, none of which have come against a side inside the League’s top ten.
In team news, Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas is set to provide a boost for the home side, as he returns from a thigh injury. He was ruled out of his nation’s meetings against Belarus and Germany during the international break, but is looking promising to start.
A trip to Stamford Bridge is currently the hardest trip in the Premier League. Having only won away against Leicester City and Tottenham this season, it is hard to see West Brom rising to the occasion in this match.
Prediction: Chelsea 2-0
