Chelsea is well-positioned to secure a win against Djurgarden in their upcoming match. Chelsea has been in strong form, winning their last four games and successfully overcoming tough opponents like Liverpool. Djurgarden, on the other hand, has struggled recently, losing two of their last three matches. Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson is in excellent form, scoring three goals in his last three outings and is likely to find the net again. Key players for Djurgarden are missing due to injury or ineligibility, enhancing Chelsea's chances for a decisive victory.

Head to Head


Chelsea won 4-1 in the first leg last week. That is their only previous meeting.

Chelsea Form


Chelsea are in strong form and are undefeated in eight of their last nine games, scoring 17 goals.

The Blues’ only recent loss was a 2-1 home defeat to Legia Warsaw in the Conference League. Chelsea responded with a four-match winning run with victories against Fulham 2-1, Everton 1-0 and Djurgarden 4-1.

Enzo Maresca’s team extended their winning streak with a 3-1 home victory against Premier League champions Liverpool. Chelsea had 3.52 XG and Enzo Fernandez, Cole Palmer and an own goal led the Blues to victory.

Chelsea Injuries & Team News


Midfielder Romeo Lavia is not registered to play in the Conference League. 

Striker Christopher Nkunku, defender Wesley Fofana and forward  Marc Guiu are injured.

Djurgarden Form 


Swedish outfit Djurgarden have struggled for form recently and have won just two of their previous seven games. 

Djurgarden beat Rapid Wien 4-1 after extra time in the Conference League quarter-final. A 0-0 draw with GAIS, a 1-0 win over Oesters and a 4-1 loss to Chelsea followed.

The Blue Stripes’ patchy form continued last time out following a 1-1 home draw with AIK. Marcus Danielson scored in the first half before Djurgarden conceded a 93rd-minute equaliser.

Djurgarden Injuries & Team News


Zakaria Sawo, Matias Siltanen, Albin Ekda and Filip Manojlovic are ineligible to feature in the Conference League.

Goalkeeper Malkolm Nilsson and midfielders Patric Aslund and Rasmus Schuller are unavailable due to injury. 

Forward pair Oskar Fallenius and Nino Zugelj and defender Piotr Johansson are also ruled out.

Verdict

Chelsea can create chances against an out-of-form Djurgarden and a high-scoring home win is tipped. Jackson is in good scoring form and he can get on the scoresheet in this Conference League encounter.
