Chelsea 1/1 to reach the Champions League quarter-finals ahead of Wednesday’s PSG clash

Posted March 10th, 2015 | By: Crippy Cooke

Competition: Champions League
Market: Chelsea to quality from last-16
Odds: 1/1 @ 888 Sport

Chelsea host Paris Saint-Germain in the latter stages of the Champions League for the second consecutive season, and the Blues will know exactly how difficult it will be to see past the French Ligue 1 opponents as a result. Last season, it took a late goal from Demba Ba to see the Londoners in dramatic fashion, and the two sides are perfectly poised this time after drawing 1-1 in the first leg.

A 0-0 would see Jose Mourinho’s men through, but the Parisians have too much firepower to be kept quiet. Zlatan Ibrahimovic and Edin Cavani will be the danger man ahead of Wednesday’s meeting, with the latter having scored in the first leg. Chelsea are notoriously hard to break down at Stamford Bridge, but their manager will want his side to have a lead to hold onto, rather than risk playing out a 0-0.

888 Sport are giving odds of 1/1 for Chelsea to reach the quarter-finals, with home advantage likely to play a factor as it has done in the past for Mourinho. PSG have the quality to score, but Chelsea are never kept quiet at the Bridge, so Laurent Blanc’s men will be always chasing the game.
