The match:

Chelsea vs Zenit St. Petersburg

The Champions League is finally here, and it’s time for the reign champions to make their debut this campaign, when they host Zenit St. Petersburg in the first round.

Factors to consider:

Chelsea has a great start to the season with a 4-unbeaten streak in the Premier League, winning in three occasions, while drawing 1-1 against Liverpool, with 9 goals scored and only one received.

They also feel pretty comfortable in this competition, as The Blues are unbeaten in their last 11 group stage games, with seven victories and four ties.

The Russians, on the other hand, are winless in their last seven UCL matches, (1 draw and 6 defeats), failing to win all six of their group stage games in last season’s competition.

They too are unbeaten in their home league, winning five of the seven rounds disputed so far, though all their rivals significantly less competitive, while ending the other two in draw, both away from home.

Face to face:

This will be the first time these two face each other, and hopefully they won’t disappoint us.

Conclusion:

With a great run so far, and playing at Stamford Bridge, and with Romelu Lukaku on Fire, scoring goal after goal, it should be a great night for the locals, in their attempt to defend their crown.

Prediction:

Chelsea with a -1.5, -2.0 Asian handicap. If they are winning by two in the first half, it would be a good time to take profits.

比赛:

切尔西vs圣彼得堡泽尼特

欧冠联赛终于来了，当之无愧的卫冕冠军将在本赛季首次亮相，他们将在第一轮迎战圣彼得堡泽尼特。

考虑因素:

切尔西本赛季开局不错，在英超联赛中保持四连胜，三次获胜，同时1:1战平利物浦，共进9球，只进1球。

他们在这场比赛中也感觉很舒服，因为蓝军在最近的11场小组赛中保持不败，7胜4平。

另一方面，俄罗斯队在过去的七场欧冠比赛中均未取得胜利(1平6负)，上个赛季小组赛的六场比赛均未取得胜利。

他们在主场联赛中也保持不败，在七轮比赛中赢下了五场，尽管他们所有的对手都没有那么有竞争力，另外两场比赛都在客场打成平局。

面对面:

这将是他们第一次见面，希望他们不会让我们失望。

结论:

到目前为止，在斯坦福桥踢得很好，加上洛梅卢·卢卡库(Romelu Lukaku)的精彩表现，一球接一球的进球，对于试图卫冕冠军的当地人来说，这应该是一个伟大的夜晚。

预测:

切尔西有-1.5，-2.0的亚洲障碍。如果他们在上半场赢了两场，这将是获利了结的好时机。
