Prediction: 3-1
Legia
After dropping two points in a 2-2 draw with Ipswich Town, Chelsea will look to book their spot in the Conference League semis when they face Legia at Stamford Bridge. The Blues faced no difficulties in the first leg, beating the Poles 3-0 in Warsaw, but they surely want to record yet another triumph in this quarter-final tie. Even though Enzo Maresca is likely to stick to his rotation policy, anything but a routine home win would be a big surprise.
All Malo Gusto, Jadon Sancho, and Christopher Nkunku should be recalled to the starting XI. The visitors, on the other hand, face an uphill task in the return leg. With Chelsea turning their Stamford Bridge into a real fortress, we predict that Legia are going to return to Poland empty-handed. Both Artur Jedrzejczyk and Jan Ziolkowski are back from suspension for the visiting team.
Highlighted Team (Chelsea):
Over the years Chelsea have established themselves as one of the dominant forces in the English Premier League. Roberto Di Matteo helped the team win their first ever Champions League trophy (2011/2012), but it has to be noted that they were more than fortunate to beat Bayern Munich in the title game.
Chelsea have been playing at Stamford Bridge since 1876 and they are a real force to be reckoned with at home. The Blues have won seven FA Cups, five League Cups, two UEFA Cup Winners’ Cups and the UEFA Europa League. Rafael Benitez was in charge of the team that faced Benfica in the 2012/2013 Europa League final, with Branislav Ivanovic scoring the winner for the Blues in the title clash.
After lifting the 2014/2015 Premier League trophy, the Blues largely struggled in the next campaign, which saw Jose Mourinho’s second spell with the club come to an end, and Antoine Conte went over to take the reigns for the 2016/2017 season.
