Hello and welcome to football.london for live coverage of Chelsea's Champions League tie with Barcelona this evening.
It is matchday five of the Champions League league phase and for the Blues, three points would go a long way in their bid to qualify in the top eight. Standing in their way, though, are Barcelona, one of the most dangerous sides in European football.
Enzo Maresca spoke about how brilliant Hansi Flick's side are during yesterday afternoon's press conference and is aware his team need to be at their absolute best to get a result in west London this evening. Kick-off at Stamford Bridge is scheduled for 8pm tonight, with the official line-ups set to come out around an hour before the game gets underway.
Bobby Vincent is in the capital throughout the night to bring you consistent updates on all the action in SW6. Stay tuned!
