Chelsea to face Slavia Prague in Europa League quarter-finals

Chelsea will take on Slavia Prague in the quarter-finals of the Europa League. 

The Blues booked their place in the final eight of the competition on Thursday evening as they demolished Dynamo Kiev 5-0 away from home. 

Maurizio Sarri saw his side ease to a 3-0 win in the first leg at Stamford Bridge, and they were even more convincing in Ukraine, as they secured an 8-0 aggregate victory. 

Chelsea will now be looking to progress to the semi-finals of the Europa League, but a test from Slavia Prague stands in their way.

The Blues will be away in the first leg of their clash and will welcome their Czech counterparts in the second leg.

Sarri will undoubtedly have one eye on his team’s pursuit of a top-four finish in the Premier League but will know that their passage through to next season’s Champions League could be earned via triumph in the Europa League. 

Slavia Prague will present a tough test, though, following their 6-5 aggregate victory against Sevilla in the round of 16.

If Chelsea are to progress past them in the quarter-finals, they will face either Napoli or Arsenal in the penultimate stage of the competition.
