After failing to win either of their first two Champions League group games, Chelsea reignited their European hopes after beating AC Milan 3-0 on matchday three last week.
Currently sitting second in Group E, one point behind leaders Red Bull Salzburg who have five points, Graham Potter’s Blues know they now have a very good chance of advancing to the knockout round of the competition.
However, with three games to go, including a quick tie against AC Milan on Tuesday night, Chelsea will know another win is needed.
It won’t be easy though, and although the Rossoneri were far from their best last week, Chelsea will remain desperate to avoid complacency.

However, taking a hit before a ball was kicked, some early team news from The Athletic’s Adam Newson claims Potter will be missing three key players.
Wesley Fofana, N’Golo Kante and attacker Hakim Ziyech have been left behind, presumably due to injuries.
