不出所料,切尔西和他们昂贵得离谱的球队已经进入了联盟联赛的半决赛,他们是进入决赛的最大热门,因为他们与比赛中剩下的最差的球队朱加登战平。
瑞典队目前在Allsvenskan排名第十,上赛季在这场比赛中只进入了16强,在半决赛的第二回合中,维也纳快速队的两张红牌为他们提供了巨大的帮助,他们最终以4比2的总比分获胜。
切尔西似乎极有可能结束他们的比赛,考虑到他们已经赢得了联盟联赛的五场客场比赛,切尔西可能会在下周的第二回合之前结束比赛,但有理由相信朱加登可以挫败蓝军的巨额支出,至少在一段时间内是这样。
尽管切尔西在淘汰赛阶段有更多大牌球星出场,但他们一直在努力击败对手。科尔·帕尔默的状态突然下降并没有起到帮助作用,蓝军已经连续四场欧洲比赛进入中场休息。
当然,他们最终应该找到一条出路,尼古拉斯·杰克逊、贾登·桑丘和诺尼·马杜克只是将在斯德哥尔摩发挥作用的一些进攻天才,但他们可能必须耐心等待。
Djurgarden被恰如其分地称为“铁炉”,在联赛阶段对阵本赛季他们遇到的最好的球队Vitoria Guimaraes时,他们在休息时保持了水平,同样的结果可能会在周四的第一回合上演。
预言:
平局/切尔西
切尔西2:0
外文原文如下:
To nobody’s surprise, Chelsea and their ludicrously expensive squad have sailed through to the semi-finals of the Conference League and they are immense favourites to reach the final, having been drawn against the competition’s worst-remaining team, Djurgarden.
The Swedish outfit are currently tenth in the Allsvenskan, only made the round of 16 in this tournament last term and were aided massively by Rapid Vienna’s two red cards in the second leg of their semi-final, which they eventually won 4-2 on aggregate.
It seems extremely likely that their run will be brought to an end by Chelsea, who could have things wrapped up before next week’s second leg given they have won all five of their Conference League away games, but there is reason to believe Djurgarden can frustrate the big-spending Blues, at least for a while.
Chelsea, despite playing more of their big-name stars in the knockout phase, have struggled to blow teams away. Cole Palmer’s sudden drop in form has not helped matters and the Blues have gone into half-time with the score level in four straight European games.
Of course, they should eventually find a way through, with Nicolas Jackson, Jadon Sancho and Noni Madueke just some of the attacking talents set to play a part in Stockholm, but they may have to be patient.
Djurgarden, who are aptly nicknamed the Iron Stoves, were level at the break when playing the best team they’ve faced this term, Vitoria Guimaraes, in the league phase and the same outcome could play out in Thursday’s first leg.
Predictions:Draw/Chelsea
Chelsea 2-0
