Graham Potters men confirmed their place in the quarter-finals of Europes prestigious competition after they overturned a 1-0 first-leg loss to defeat the Bundesliga outfit 2-1 on aggregate. The win secured the Blues first back-to-back wins since October and displaced some of the pressure off Potters shoulders.

Thus, the Blues must rely on results elsewhere and hope the likes of Tottenham and Liverpool drop points in their respective games, if they are going to put together a late charge up the league.

However, it is available worldwide. beIN SPORTS has the rights for the action in the Middle East, North Africa and Turkey while Canal+ is showing the game in France, Poland and the Czech Republic.

Meanwhile, Potter has highlighted the importance of putting in a good performance against Leicester, despite the Foxes terrible form of late. Brendan Rodgers side are flirting with a shock relegation to the Championship but the Chelsea boss isnt taking them lightly.
We have to play well. I think Leicesters results are worse than their performances, he said.
Theyve been a bit unfortunate as well I think. They are suffering from not the best of starts, Im sure Brendan [Rodgers] will agree with that. But theyve rallied as well and still have some really good players. I have huge respect for what Brendan has done there and he is a top coach and top person. Itll be a tough game.
