Magnus Carlsen starts with the White pieces against Viswanathan Anand in Game 6 today in Sochi. The Norwegian will once again play White in the next game after the rest day as per the regulations where the color reversal happens after the first half of the championship. Both victories till now have been scored with the White pieces, hence the Indian will have to perform well in games 6 and 7 to make sure he doesn’t hand the lead back to the Norwegian.
