Group L top scorer and fan favorites, Chelsea have already qualified for the League’s round of 32, it’s Vidi that has to struggle to enter the knock-out stage as they stand in a do or die situation. Although Vidi isn’t facing any injury concerns and would face Chelsea in full squad, they do have an advantage as Chelsea’s Mateo Kovacic and Marcos Alonso could miss the match, as they have some fitness doubts, but Victor Moses could return to the starting eleven.
Vidi’s form is not ideal heading into a showdown with Chelsea but if veteran Roland Juhasz can ensure that the backline remains compact, there may be opportunities to catch Chelsea on the break.
Probable Line-ups:
Chelsea: Caballero (GK); Zappacosta, Christensen, Cahill, Emerson; Ampadu, Fabregas, Barkley; Moses, Morata, Hudson-Odoi.
Videoton: Kovacsik (GK); Fiola, Juhasz, Vinicius, Stopira; Nego, Kovacs, Patkai; Huszti, Milanov; Scepovic.
