Chelsea coach Carlo Ancelotti faces a dilemma over the fitness of striker Didier Drogba. The Blues are currently just one point clear of rivals Manchester United at the top of the Barclays Premier League.
But if Chelsea win their remaining three games, two at home to Stoke and Wigan with a trip to Liverpool sandwiched in between, the Blues will be champions for the first time since 2006.
Drogba has scored 32 goals this season but has struggled since it was made clear the Ivorian is battling a groin injury.
He is unlikely to want to carry the injury into the World Cup finals in South Africa this summer and is almost certain to undergo surgery.
But the big dilemma facing the club and the player is when will that be carried out.
"It's his decision," said Ancelotti. "He doesn't have a big problem. It's more about controlling the situation.
"He'll take a decision at the end of the season, whether he has surgery or not. But it's not sure he'll have surgery."
