RB Salzburg Preview
Salzburg goes into this match as second in Group E of the UEFA Champions League thanks to three draws and a win at this stage. In their most recent Champions League match against Dinamo Zagreb, the Red Bulls drew 1-1 with a goal by Nicolas Seiwald in the 12th minute. Although RB Salzburg came closer to the goal, their lack of effectiveness took its toll.
For the RB Salzburg vs Chelsea match, the home team has the disadvantage of having several injured players on their roster. If the Austrians win all three points, it is almost certain that they will qualify for the Round of 16, but if they draw, they will not be dependent on themselves.
Possible RB Salzburg lineup: Philipp Kohn, Amar Dedic, Oumar Solet, Strahinja Pavlovic, Andreas Ulmer, Maurits Kjaergaard, Lucas Gourna-Douath, Nicolas Seiwald, Antoine Bernede, Noah Okafor, Benjamin Sesko.

In their most recent Champions League match, the Londoners won 2-0 against AC Milan, goals from Jorginho and Pierre Aubameyang were enough to clinch the victory. At home, the Blues are in fifth place in the Premier League and have gone five consecutive matches without defeat.
