Chelsea did well to manage a narrow win over Slavia Prague in the Czech Republic last week and they will be confident they can put the tie to bed in Stamford Bridge tonight. A 2-0 defeat at Liverpool may have significantly damaged their top 4 hopes so an alternative route via the Europa League needs to be open for the Blues. Maurizio Sarri is going through a turbulent phase in his first season in charge of Chelsea and only a triumph in the Europa League final in Baku may save his job.

Garry Cahill and Andreas Christensen should form the central defensive partnership for the hosts while Spaniard Marcos Alonso should also come in the starting eleven. There are talks of both Ross Barkley and Matteo Kovacic starting the game with Jorginho getting a much deserved day off. In attack, Olivier Giroud who has scored quite a few goals in the Europa League in the past could start with Callum Hudson-Odoi and Pedro providing the width to the Frenchman. Youngster Odoi did look good in patches against Liverpool and Chelsea may find it difficult to hold on to him in the summer.
Midfielder Tomas Soucek who missed the first leg against Chelsea due to suspension is available again and should be drafted straight back in the starting eleven. Miroslav Stoch failed to carve out an opening in the last game against the Blues and he will have to be on top of his game tonight for the Czech side to get the away goal. Ibrahim Traore and Alex Kral will have to put in an extra shift to cope up with the movement of some of the Blues players. For success against any top opposition, the goalkeeper needs to have a blinder and Ondrej Kolar is aware of it for Slavia Prague.
