Djugarden vs Chelsea FC | FULL MATCH STREAM
• | HELLO AND WELCOME TO TODAY'S LIVE MATCH STREAM:
Chelsea travel to Sweden to take on Djurgarden in their Europa Conference League semi-final first leg. Enzo Maresca’s side earned their place in the final four of the Conference League after defeating Legia Warsaw in the quarter-finals. They won 3-0 away from home in the first leg before losing the second leg at home 1-2 to progress 4-2 on aggregate. Tonight’s game in Sweden takes place on an artificial pitch, which Chelsea head coach Maresca has admitted has caused him some concern ahead of the game.
“It can be a concern,” Maresca said. “I am a little bit worried about that. It is completely different [to grass]. I know that in the last weeks even some of their players were complaining about the pitch. They play every week, so for us it is a different one. But there are no excuses, no reasons why we are not going to compete tomorrow and the second game at all.”
Despite the Conference League being the third-tier European competition, Maresca has declared that this competition is “huge”.
