Chelsea supporters will already be buying their tickets and reciting their favourite German phrases with the Blues set to face Eintracht Frankfurt in the Europa League semi-final.
The Blues edged past Slavia Prague at Stamford Bridge on Thursday, with goals from Pedro (2), Olivier Giroud and an own goal from Simon Deli putting Maurizio Sarri’s side 4-1 ahead at the break.
Two quick-fire goals from the visitors put the result in doubt but Chelsea held on for a place in the last four.
They will take on German outfit Frankfurt after they knocked out Benfica on away goals after a 4-4 aggregate draw.

It was the Portuguese supporters that hit the headlines on Thursday morning, however, after this hilarious mistake.
One loyal fan on route to Germany for the second-leg was left slightly bemused after travelling to the wrong Frankfurt.
Alvaro Oliveira, who made the 28-hour car journey from Lisbon, went to Frankfurt (Oder), rather than Frankfurt (Main) where the team actually play.
More than 600 kilometres separate the two German cities and, according to Google, it would take almost six hours to get to Commerzbank-Arena.
Most comically, the trip saw the fan drive past the main Frankfurt, where his side played out their quarter-final tie on Thursday.
Eagle-eyed Instagram users were quick to point out the error after he put on a series of road signs on his ‘story’.
If Oliviera did manage to make it in time for kick-off, he will have been sorely disappointed as his beloved side crashed out of the competition.
Most Blues supporters will have been fearing in-form striker Luka Jovic ahead of a trip to Frankfurt, when in fact they should be worried about their own sat-navs.
Chelsea fans, you have been warned.
