The Blues managed to win the first leg 2-0 at Stamford Bridge and they will be the overwhelming favourites to go through to the next round.

Despite the crisis surrounding the club off the pitch, the Londoners have been quite impressive in their recent matches and they have picked up four wins in a row across all competitions.

Thomas Tuchel will demand a strong performance from his players away from home and Lille will need a massive slice of luck to get a good result here.

The Blues have won their last three matches against Lille across all competitions and they have been in formidable form in the European competitions this season.
