Chelsea will welcome their Romanian opponents, looking to overturn a small deficit from the first leg.

Team News

Oriol Romeu is out for Chelsea. Demba Ba is ineligible. Stefan Nikolic is out for Steaua.

Analysis

Chelsea came back from two goals down against Manchester United to draw their FA Cup quarterfinal 2-2 during the weekend, forcing a replay. Chelsea sparkled in the second half. They were absolutely brilliant; they played the champions-elect of England off the park. This will surely give them confidence going into a match up in which they are down.

Steaua, currently playing very well, have a 1-0 lead in their Europa League tie. They will look to book a spot in the next round of the Europa League against a Chelsea side consisting of many brilliant players tomorrow.
