Chelsea host Lille in the final group stage game of this season’s Champions League.
Group H has been notoriously tight and Frank Lampard will know that a win will guarantee Chelsea progress to the knockout round of the Champions League.
Chelsea will be feeling confident of a win, as their French opponents Lille are currently bottom of the group, only amassing one point in their five games.
But, Chelsea will be aware of their surprising bump in form, having won only once in their previous five games in all competitions.
Also, Lille have begun to find their form, coming into this game on a three match winning streak, which have all included clean sheets for les Dogues.
With Ajax playing Valencia, Chelsea can cement their position in the next round with a win against Lille, regardless of the result in Amsterdam.
However, a draw in this fixture would mean that Chelsea need to hope that Ajax win, as anything else would mean Chelsea would play Europa League football instead of Champions League next year.
