We said: Chelsea 2-0 Red Bull Salzburg

We expect Chelsea to be hugely motivated to win this match under their new manager, with Potter's extra time on the training ground likely to have helped their cause of doing so. The visitors are missing several key players through injury, especially in defence, and they may struggle to keep their opponents at bay as a result. Read more.
