Chelsea return to Seville tonight looking to convert their 2-0 Uefa Champions League quarter-final lead against FC Porto into a place in the last four.
Winning the Champions League might be the only path back into the competition next season for the Blues. For all the progress under Thomas Tuchel, they sit fifth in the Premier League and face plenty of competition for the top four.
Porto have maintained their winning streak domestically but were meek in the 2-0 first-leg loss, which leaves them with a mountain to climb.

Chelsea vs Porto is scheduled for an 8pm BST kick-off tonight - Tuesday, April 13, 2021.
The match will be held behind closed doors at the Estadio Ramon Sanchez Pizjuan in Seville.
