While some of us have already begun tinkering with the winter wildcards, there are five games taking place today as double gameweek 20 gets underway.

The big news is that Daniel Sturridge is not in the Chelsea squad- those overnight reports of a leg injury appear to have been true, then.

Here’s the line-ups of this afternoon’s four fixtures before Arsenal make their way to the Cottage this evening:

Blackburn: Bunn, Lowe, Samba, Hanley, Henley, Nzonzi, Formica, Dunn, Petrovic, Pedersen, Yakubu
Stoke: Sorensen; Woodgate, Shawcross, Huth, Wilson; Shotton, Whelan, Whitehead, Etherington; Walters, Crouch

Wolves: Hennessey, Stearman, Berra, Johnson, Ward, Hammill, Henry, Frimpong, Forde, Edwards, Doyle.
Chelsea: Cech; Bosingwa, Luiz, Terry, Cole; Meireles, Romeu, Lampard; Ramires, Torres, Mata.

QPR: Kenny, Hill, Derry, Gabbidon, Taarabt, Faurlin, Mackie, Barton, Young, Helguson, Ferdinand
Norwich: Ruddy, Martin, Drury, Johnson, Whitbread, Holt, Jackson, Pilkington, Bennett, Lappin, Ayala.

Aston Villa: Guzan, Cuellar, Dunne, Collins, Warnock; Petrov, Clark, N’Zogbia, Ireland, Agbonlahor, Bent
Swansea: Vorm, Rangel, Caulker, Williams, Taylor; Britton, Dyer, Routledge, Agustien, Orlandi; Graham

    Is Gervinho any good at heading? Just wondering considering the size of that forehead.

      Thus far, Gervinho has been a bit of a let down at Arsenal, along with Chamakh. They've done nothing spectacular to ease off the pressure that Robin Van Persie carries each time he plays for them.

      Ben Arfa isn't rising in price so you can wait. With Ba off to ACON and Obertan injured I expect him to see more starts but he hasn't started the last five games so wait and see.

    Macheda moving to QPR on loan must be make or break for his career. If he succeeds he could be given another chance at United or somewhere respectable elsewhere. If he fails, he could be confined to the doldrums of the Championship. With the above in mind, why did United sell G Rossi???
