Chelsea hope to prove Zinedine Zidane’s Champions League prediction wrong ahead of Malmo tie


The Blues head into the clash against Malmo as the Champions League holders and will hope to take a step closer to winning back-to-back titles.

Chelsea will be aiming to prove Zinedine Zidane wrong as they continue their Champions League defence against Malmo on Wednesday.

The Blues take on the Swedish champions aiming to get back to winning ways in the competition after their defeat to Juventus in Turin last time.

Chelsea host Malmo at Stamford Bridge as the defending champions and aim to become only the second club in the history of the Champions League to claim consecutive crowns, after Real Madrid secured three trophies in a row between 2016 and 2018.

The man to orchestrate the Spanish giants’ success was former boss Zinedine Zidane, who ended their long wait for La Decima, whilst then claiming a further two successes.

"The Champions League is an objective for us, it will not be easy, just the opposite, it is more difficult still to repeat it. When you are the champion, every game is difficult.”

This will of course be a theory that Chelsea will try and disprove as they continue their journey in the competition.
