Champions League football returns midweek as the knockout stages begin. Testament to Chelsea’s unfortunate campaign thus far, the Blues have been drawn against Paris Saint-Germain (PSG), the same side that dumped them out of the competition last season.

While Chelsea’s struggles throughout the first half of the campaign are well documented, they appear to have turned a corner since Guus Hiddink’s arrival. The team put in their best performance yet at the weekend, as they demolished Newcastle United 5-1. With PSG seemingly all but guaranteed the Ligue 1 crown, the Blues will need to be on top form in order to progress.

Bearing that in mind, here is how the Blues may line-up on Tuesday evening.
