CHELSEA VS KRASNODAR PREDICTION
Premier League side Chelsea head into Matchday 6 unbeaten and top of Group E, with their place in the UEFA Champions League knockout stage secure. Manager Frank Lampard is blessed with an incredibly strong squad that will allow him to rotate freely vs Krasnodar without worrying about his team suffering from a lack of quality on the pitch. The reverse fixture between these two teams saw Chelsea win 0-4 in Russia and the Blues have won three of their five group stage matches by at least two clear goals. When taking into account the strength in depth of the Blues, it’s very difficult not to see them winning this one by just as big a margin.
