Chelsea manager Carlo Ancelotti will be demanding a vastly improved performance from his side when they take on Birmingham City in their next Premier League match on Saturday. Catch all the live Premier League action from that game by signing up with us here on Live Sport Network.

The defending champions have struggled in their recent games, collecting just three points from their last three games to see their lead at the top of the table cut down to just two points. With Arsenal looking at their consistent best and with Manchester United expected to kick start their revival following the return of a number of key players, Ancelotti will be aware that his side can ill afford to drop any more points.

The Blues had bounced back from their disappointing defeat to Liverpool with a narrow victory over Fulham but suffered their first home defeat this season as they were completely outplayed by an incisive Sunderland side that rode high on goals from Nedum Onuoha, Asamoah Gyan and Danny Welbeck to secure a comfortable 3-0 win.

Ancelotti was furious over the performance and is reported to have read the riot act to his players. The Chelsea manager is expected to ring in the changes for the game against Birmingham though Frank Lampard and John Terry continue to remain out of action for at least another week.

Birmingham City on the other hand will be hoping for a repeat of their excellent defensive performance when they held Manchester City to a 0-0 draw last weekend. Watch Birmingham City vs Chelsea Live online on Live Sport Network, the leading source to watch live Premier League action on the web.
