Chelsea supporters have doubtless revelled in the blissful memories of 2012 in the build-up to Wednesday’s Champions League clash against Bayern Munich.
It was more than 13 years ago when Roberto Di Matteo’s written-off Blues strolled into the Allianz Arena, undermanned, and secured a stunning penalty shootout triumph to claim their first Champions League crown.
The Blues have since lifted two Premier League titles and multiple domestic cups, not to mention their second successful conquest of Europe in 2021, but that night in Munich will be remembered in perpetuity as the club’s greatest.
Enzo Maresca’s side will aim to evoke the spirit of Di Matteo’s warriors on a slightly less significant occasion, with UEFA’s expansionist ideals reducing the impact of an early-season continental defeat.
Nevertheless, an intriguing bout is in store at the Allianz Arena, as a high-flying Bayern take on the Club World Cup champions. Here’s how you can watch all the action unfold on TV.
