Roberto Di Matteo is reportedly expecting to be sacked as Chelsea manager after losing 3-0 at Juventus in the Champions League on Tuesday.

Chelsea manager Roberto Di Matteo is expecting to be sacked as the Blues boss following the club's defeat to Juventus, according to Sky Sports News.

The European champions were beaten 3-0 by the Italians in the Champions League on Tuesday night, and are in danger of becoming the first holders to fail to make the knockout stages of the competition.

The Londoners are without a win in their last four Premier League games, and Di Matteo admits that his position at Stamford Bridge will always be a hot topic.

"In a big club like this - if you have a few bad results - you are going to be under pressure but you have to live with it," said Di Matteo. "And it's been like that from day one and it's up to me to pick the players up now."

Pep Guardiola and Rafa Benitez have both been linked with succeeding the Italian.
