Chelsea fans know that this is the biggest game of the season so far for the Blues, a win against an already depleted United side would give them a big advantage at the top of the league, but lets be honest, they don’t have the bottle.
The Chelsea boss should be fancying his chances, two points clear, United at home with players out. If he wins this then they go five points clear, you have to be inspired by that, yet Ancelotti says that the game will mean no more to his side than any other.
"Psychologically, it will not mean more," said Ancelotti.
"We have to play against a strong team. We will play against the second team in the list of the Premier League, but I think that it's just a game that carries three points like the others.
"It's a very important game. It's important because we play against a fantastic team, but we know very well that it will be a very difficult match but also a very interesting one.
"We are happy to play this game at this moment. I think we are doing very well, we are in good condition and we have a very good mental attitude."
Some of that you cannot argue with, his side do face a fantastic team and they will very likely get turned over as United go back on top of the league.
Then we will see just how important this game is, they just might fall apart after losing it.
