Chelsea - Salzburg: Form Analysis
Chelsea have had a tough start to the season and they already have a new manager. This will be Potter’s first game in charge and we don’t expect a huge variation from what was there under Thomas Tuchel. They have three losses in the last five matches and though they’ve scored in most of their seven matches, they haven’t kept many clean sheets. They are unbeaten at home this season though they haven’t kept a clean sheet. Salzburg have scored in each of their last eight matches and get into this game without a loss in that run. They’ve scored two or more goals in seven of their last eight matches.

Chelsea can’t afford to drop more points here, but they are facing a side tough to crack, which will also be targeting three points.
