Chelsea are fighting on two fronts to meet specific targets. One of the priority objectives of the season was to secure Champions League for the next season.
Maurizio Sarri had a two-way approach to meet that target; through the league standing or by winning the Europa League.
But after suffering a 2-0 defeat against Liverpool at Anfield, the Blues suffered a huge blow in their pursuit of the top-four. They are fifth on the table, level on points with Arsenal in fourth place. But Chelsea have played a game more than their direct rivals and are yet to travel to Old Trafford this season.
Chelsea can still sneak into the top-4 if the results go their way. But the best bet to win the qualification for the Champions League is by winning the Europa League.
Sarri’s team is in the driving seat having scored a precious away goal in Prague. However, the performance was from perfect as Slavia put the English team under a lot of pressure in the home tie.
