A dramatic draw with Manchester United over the weekend saw Chelsea maintain their unbeaten start to the campaign and this should be an easier outing at home, given the battling spirit the team showed in the match, With a win and a loss in the opening two matches in the group, BATE could move level with Chelsea with a win here and after their opening away win against the group’s whipping boys, Vidi, they will be hoping to secure a good result here. It is however not going to be easy against a side that has beaten Arsenal and drawn with Manchester United and Liverpool at Stamford Bridge this season. Also, Chelsea have played nine home matches in the Europa League, and they have lost none, only drawing two. The Blues have four straight wins in the competition at home and overall, they are unbeaten in five, which have all ended in wins. They last lost in this competition, to Russian side Rubin Kazan in 2013. BATE on the other hand, head to the game on the back of two losses in their last three matches and have managed just three wins in 18 Europa League matches. They also have three wins in their last 10 away matches in the Europa League. For the side from Belarus, this will be a very tough outing; the writing is all over.
