Welcome to the second leg of our UEFA Conference League quarterfinal matchup against Legia Warsaw. Chelsea have a comfortable 3-0 lead from the first leg, so this should be a formality — hopefully.
Enzo Maresca has opted to rotate accordingly, though with a few key players getting starts, including Cole Palmer, Nicolas Jackson, and Marc Cucurella. Plenty of youth on the bench, if not in the lineup, including young Landon Emenalo!
