But what makes it stand out is that the luckiest fans can watch all the live action from a HOT TUB.

And those most fortunate lounging in a jacuzzi can also enjoy some delicious FONDUE.

The most recent fans to take a dip were the lucky winners of a competition on the club’s app.

Incredibly, fans could see something similar in the Premier League next season with Fulham’s new Riverside Stand to include a rooftop pool when fully operational.

The Blues faced Servette in the play-offs at Stade de Geneve in the second leg after winning 2-0 at Stamford Bridge in August.

The West Londoners didn’t have the best experience in Switzerland as they lost 2-1.

Christopher Nkunku opened the scoring from the penalty spot but Jeremy Guillemenot equalised before Enzo Crivelli turned the game on its head.

However, Chelsea sealed their ticket to the league phase thanks to a 3-2 win on aggregate.
