Prediction: 1-2
Chelsea
All eyes will be on Voith-Arena in Heidenheim when Chelsea comes to town on Thursday evening. The Bundesliga outfit made a flying start to their Conference League campaign, with the team eyeing their fourth consecutive win of the process, but they will have a mountain to climb against Chelsea. All Pieringer, Busch, Janes, and Niehues continue to miss out with injuries, but there are no suspended players in the home team.
The Blues, on the other hand, rolled over Noah 8-0 in their last Conference League game to keep their 100% record intact. Even though Enzo Maresca is expected to stick to his rotation policy, away win should be considered as Chelsea have been in a fine form of late. All Chrisopher Nkunku, Jadon Sancho, Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall, and Mykhailo Mudryk should be recalled to the starting XI, while star player Cole Palmer is ineligible for the competition.
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.
