It will be the second duel between these two teams after their confrontation last week in London. There, the locals Chelsea won their first game in this UEFA Champions League 3-0, being far superior to the “Rossoneri”, who showed a truly unknown version and far from the level they had been having.

Now they have the chance to play at home and get even for that humiliation received at Stamford Bridge. Both have 4 points, one point below sole leaders Salzburg, who defeated Dinamo Zagreb the previous Matchday and are the only undefeated in Group E. A great game awaits the fans.

Without a doubt, this complicates the formation of the team, which will be similar to theone that comes from beating Juventus in Serie A. Tommaso Pobega will leave midfield to allow Rade Krunic, and Theo Hernandezreturns tothe left back.
