Tuchel on Chelsea, Juventus’ tough challenge
Chelsea can secure their place in the Champions League knockout stages this evening as they welcome Juventus at Stamford Bridge.
The Blues require just one point to secure their place in the Round of 16, with Group H leaders Juventus already advancing, although Chelsea can snatch first place from the Italian side in the last two rounds of the group stage. Indeed, Thomas Tuchel’s side – who have nine points behind Juventus – could already qualify for the last 16 with a loss here, if Zenit St Petersburg fail to beat Malmo in this evening’s Group H encounter.
Champions Chelsea will enter tonight’s game with confidence on their side, having stayed top of the Premier League this weekend by bypassing Leicester. That 3-0 win away from home came thanks to goals by N’Golo Kante, Antonio Rudiger and Christian Pulisic, who all rose in the absence of strikers Romelu Lukaku and Timo Werner. The latter returned from injury to sit on the bench on Saturday and is on the bench again here, while Lukaku missed Leicester’s game but was also selected to the bench this evening.

87 min: Save! Four must! Werner gets the ball and brings it to the leading edge of the penalty area before sending a beautiful pass into the penalty area for Ziyech. He runs towards the pass and makes the first attempt with his left foot, but he cannot beat Chesney, who falls to his right and takes the ball away with his powerful right hand!

84 min: A corner kick that Juventus and Chelsea do not handle properly. The goalkeeper goes out to get the ball but it went out with his head from the penalty area, but Shaloba I think. The ball bounces well for McKinney who rocks it back into the net and pulls Mindy into a sharp save as he pushes the ball over the bar!

81 minutes: Arthur was sent off in his team’s half, and Timo Werner took the ball into the penalty area before blocking his shot and hitting it. He would like to have the registration paper tonight.

79 minutes: Sol Niguez replaces Jorginho and Mason Mount replaces Callum Hudson-Odoi for Chelsea. Not bad substitutes when you’re up by three goals.
Kane tries to face Thiago Silva, but the Chelsea player pressed in front of the striker and made a mistake. Smart defence.

73 minutes: It’s Cesar Azpilicueta who replaces Ben Chilwell at left-back which is a different role for him. Timo Werner is also coming in to replace Christian Pulisic.

70 min: Chilwell is knocked off the field with the help of physicists. His right knee appears to be the problem. Marcos Alonso is stripped in a hurry to come over.
Arthur is also playing for Juventus as Locatelli has been replaced by the man.

67 minutes: Ziyech is fine to continue, but Ben Chilwell fell in the middle of the field. It looks like he has more than one knee injury and Christian Pulisic is calling the doctors again. The game is paused due to Chilwell receiving treatment.
Moise Kean plays for Juventus instead of Alvaro Morata.
