UWCL matchweek 2: Chelsea Women v Vllaznia preview
Shkodër’s outfit did not record a single shot against Real Madrid, but the defensive fortitude for as long as they did against constant pressure was impressive in itself. The last thing that the Blues want to do is not convert on the chances that come their way like Alberto Toril and his team did last time out. Giving a club that has no expectations whatsoever of getting past the group stage any sort of confidence is a key thing for the Blues to avoid.
Fighting against a low block is going to be the task for CFC as Real Madrid took the patient route to its triumph last week. With the speed and versatility that the Blues have from top to bottom, it should not really matter who the personnel is because anyone is capable of stepping up when called upon.
The Albanians will soak in the opportunity to play a team like Chelsea while the Blues are looking to potentially sit atop the Group A table at the end of the night. Before the Albanian side gets a grip on the Champions League competition, it is going to have to take on clubs like this. Three points in the only result that is acceptable for the Blues. Aston Villa and Manchester United await as the next two fixtures in the league but before all that, the quest for redemption continues.
