S6 • E25 Mar 21, 2010 60mAdrian Chiles is joined by Alan Hansen and Lee Dixon for the last word on the weekend's Premier League action. Title challengers Manchester United and Chelsea are both in action in the north-west, with United hosting arch rivals Liverpool while Chelsea visit Blackburn. Games between Manchester United and Liverpool are always highly charged, but at this late stage of the season the fixture takes on even greater significance. Defeat for United would severely dent their chances of an unprecedented fourth consecutive league title, while Liverpool can ill afford slip-ups in the scrap for a Champions League slot. United won't be counting on any favours from Blackburn, who have failed to score against Chelsea in any of their last seven league meetings. Nonetheless, Rovers have proved obdurate opponents at Ewood Park under Sam Allardyce and have already enjoyed success at home to Chelsea this season, knocking Carlo Ancelotti's side out of the League Cup in a penalty shootout.
