Rafa Benitez made two straight swaps to the team that drew at home to Southampton on Wednesday, in the same 4-2-3-1 formation he prefers. At the back, Branislav Ivanovic came in for David Luiz, and at the other end of the pitch Fernando Torres [&#8230;]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=dotsandcrosses.wordpress.com&#038;blog=22406553&#038;post=592&#038;subd=dotsandcrosses&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

Itay Shechter made a rare start as Michu dropped back into midfield, and Angel Rangel likewise moved back to right-back as Dwight Tiendalli came out of the team.
