TOMORROW'S clash between Chelsea and Rovers brings together an exciting mix of naturally gifted attacking players.
But two men in particular stand out from the crowd as potential match winners for their teams -- Rovers' Damien Duff and Chelsea's Boudewijn Zenden.
Irish international Duff has only recently returned from hamstring trouble but he quickly slipped back into the groove with a jet-heeled display against Liverpool last week.
His presence on the left gives the whole Rovers team more balance.
And, with manager Graeme Souness likely to go with just one striker up front, he will look to players like Duff to get behind the Blues defence down the flanks.
Dutchman Zenden, meanwhile, plays a similar role for Chelsea and he has already become a smash hit at Stamford Bridge since his move from Barcelona in the summer.
The key to stopping Jimmy Floyd Hasselbaink could be to cut off the supply.
And that means keeping the lid on players like Zenden if Rovers are to prosper.
