The reverse fixture a fortnight previous ended in a rout for the visitors on the day. The Blues triumphed 6-0 courtesy of goals from Loic Remy, Didier Drogba, John Terry, a brace from Eden Hazard, and an own goal from Maribor defender Mitja Viler.

Meanwhile, in the group's other match between Schalke and Sporting in Germany, the home side, managed by former Chelsea boss Roberto Di Matteo, triumphed 4-3 in a dramatic and indeed controversial affair that saw the Bundesliga outfit awarded a dubious stoppage-time penalty to take all three points.

As a result, Wednesday's game becomes very important, if not critical, to the hosts' future in this competition. Indeed, a Chelsea win, coupled with a Schalke victory over Sporting in Lisbon the same day, will put the Germans 6 points ahead of the Slovenians with a far superior goal difference with just 2 group games remaining, all but ending their hopes of advancing to the next round. Alternatively, such a win for the Blues, regardless of the outcome in the clash in Portugal, would see them mathematically qualify for the Round of 16 after the New Year, though top spot itself will still require one more win in the 2 remaining matchweeks to secure.

Injured for the Blues remains Loic Remy, who is not expected to be fit and available again until after the upcoming International break, while whether midfielder John Obi Mikel will have recovered from his knock in time to feature midweek remains to be seen.

A vital game, in terms of CL.
Win here and we're basically through to the next round.

Courtois
Ivanovic Zouma Terry Azpiliceuta
Fabregas Matic
Schurrle Oscar Hazard
Drogba

Sub out Oscar, Hazard and Fabregas if we can get a decent early lead.

Big 'if' for this side. But agree, it would be ideal. They were dire at ours so let's hope it resumes there. As much rest for as many key players for the Pool game would be excellent.

I know, it is a big if, especially away, BUT it's not impossible.

Resting players is ideal, hence why Cahill, Willian and Costa shouldn't start.

Agree. That team should be able to put this lot away, home or away.
