CHELSEA take on AC Milan in their third Champions League clash… and they desperately need a win.
The Blues are winless in European competition so far this term, having lost their opener with Dinamo Zagreb 1-0.
That was ex-boss Thomas Tuchel’s last game in charge before Graham Potter was hired from Brighton.
But the English manager’s first game in charge of the Blues, against RB Salzburg, finished in a tame 1-1 draw at Stamford Bridge.
Chelsea find themselves bottom of their group and will be eager to get a big win for Potter, who won his first game as manager against Crystal Palace at the weekend.
But Serie A champs Milan will be out to pick up a big result in London.
