Enzo Maresca’s side are strongly expected to win the competition at a relative canter, considering the vast difference in resource between them and the rest of the clubs involved.
Clearly, that will be easier said than done. Winning a knockout competition is never that simple but Maresca is under pressure to deliver what would be the first trophy under the club’s Clearlake Capital ownership.
Here’s everything you need to know about the game.

Nicolas Jackson, Noni Madueke and Marc Guiu are expected to miss out.
Maresca could rotate his options given the Blues play Arsenal on Sunday, with the likes of Kieran Dewsbury-Hall, Filip Jorgensen, Romeo Lavia and Trevoh Chalobah in line to come into the starting lineup.
Chelsea vs Copenhagen prediction
However, Maresca’s side have to be considered favourites. They won away from home even when they didn’t convince and to let it slip from here would be a major surprise.
