Chelsea manager Maurizio Sarri admitted tonight’s Europa League clash against Vidi has been a “difficult match to prepare for” because the Blues have nothing on the line in Hungary.
Chelsea have won all of their five Group L matches so first-team regulars Eden Hazard, Kepa Arrizabalaga, Antonio Rudiger, Cesar Azpilicueta and N’Golo Kante have not travelled with the squad.
Sarri boasted about his plans to play “2000-born” players in tonight’s match, but there will be a competitive edge given Vidi need to better BATE Borisov’s result against PAOK to qualify for the next round. Follow the live action below:
