Chelsea midfielder Florent Malouda says that the Blues will take the physical strain of mounting fixtures as they chase the double.
Bolton Wanderers visit Stamford Bridge on Wednesday evening in what will be Chelsea's 51st game of the season. Owen Coyle's side are likely to provide Carlo Ancelotti's men with a stern test and the Chelsea boss has already confirmed that he will rest both Deco and Joe Cole.
Frenchman Malouda has been in excellent form recently, scoring six goals in seven games and is confident he will have the energy to keep going until the end of the season.
He said, “We don't care if we are tired or stiff, you have to give everything until the end of the season. After the Villa game the priority was the recovery. Since then it has been thinking about the objective, which is winning the League.”
Chelsea played Aston Villa on Sunday on a difficult Wembley surface and by contrast, Bolton have had the week off, yet Malouda is still confident ahead of this evening's clash.
He continued, “We know how it is. In this League if you have a week off it is really easy to come and play stronger than if you have three games in a week.
“But it is not a problem for us, we have a strong squad and everybody is ready to perform. The team will rotate and we have to win.”
