Chelsea face a mouth-watering last-16 Champions League tie as they host five-time winners Bayern Munich at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday evening.
Die Roten will like their chances in London as previous results in England’s capital have gone very favourable for them.
Last time Bayern were in London, they thumped Tottenham 7-2 and Arsenal’s turgid history with Munich will no doubt be playing in Chelsea’s mind as Munich clearly have no problem with travelling to London.
But, Frank Lampard will hold onto the fact that his Chelsea side are in solid form in Europe, currently unbeaten in five games.
However, Lampard will know the quality of opposition has certainly picked up as Bayern Munich have set their sights on lifting their sixth European title.
This desire is encapsulated in just how rampant Bayern were in the group stages, as Munich won every one of their games and finished with a +19 goal difference.
In addition, Bayern Munich last lost an away fixture in the Champions League on September 2017, which shows just how much of a cataclysmic challenge this tie will be for the Blues.
