Chelsea take a whopping three-goal advantage into the second leg of their Conference League semi-final at home to Djurgardens IF at Stamford Bridge on Thursday night.
A brace from Nicolas Jackson after first-half goals from Jadon Sancho and Noni Madueke in Stockholm seven days ago means the Blues have more than one foot in the final in Wroclaw, where Real Betis or Fiorentina await.
