2020/2021 UCL Matchday 2: Chelsea To Beat Krasnodar Away From In A High Scoring Game.



Chelsea 
will travel to Southern Russia to face Krasnodar on Wednesday 28th October for their Matchday 2 Group Stage Fixture.


Krasnodar have not made the best starts to the 2020/2021 campaign. Krasnodar have only managed to win 1 of their previous 4 games in all competitions, including a 1-1 draw against Stade Rennes last week .They suffered a 3-1 defeat to Spartak Moscow on Saturday and they currently sit 8th place with 9 points behind the league leaders.




Chelsea have only lost one league game this season, but 3 draws have prevented them from making an impact at the top of the table. Following a goalless draw with Sevilla last week, Chelsea played out a dull stalemate with Manchester United on Saturday. They find themselves 9th in the Premier League after only managing to win 2 of their opening 6 games.


Krasnodar's 5 previous 6 Champions League games have produced over 2.5 goals, only Zenit Saint Petersburg have scored more goals than Krasnodar in Russia's top flight this term.




Chelsea have managed to win just 1 of their previous 6 Champions League games and have conceded over 1.5 goals in 4 of their last 6.


Krasnodar could have 9 first team players unavailable for Wednesday's game due to injury and for some isolating because of COVID-19.


Chelsea have no fresh injuries except for Billy Gilmour and Charlie Musonda who won't be available due to injury.


PREDICTION: CHELSEA TO WIN AND OVER 3.5 MATCH GOALS.
