Chelsea vs RB Salzburg Match Preview- Predictions, Team News, Predicted Lineup, Date and Time.
It’s gameweek 2 of the Uefa Champions League and this time 2 teams who aren’t in the best of forms would face each other as it’s Chelsea Football Club vs Red Bull Salzburg. Now Chelsea have had one of the worst starts of the season ever cause currently they are 6th in the Premier League table having won only 3 out of the 6 games and last week too in the first match of the UCL they had a shock defeat against Dinamo Zagreb. These results are happening in spite of the team spending over 300 Million Euros on transfers this summer and hence after the Zagreb game, the new owner Todd Boehly sacked manager Thomas Tuchel and now they have brought in Brighton’s gaffer Graham Potter.
So there are surely new ideas in the team and they have the perfect opportunity to turn their season around as if they beat Salzburg at Stamford Bridge and get a win against a big team like them, it would definitely be sensational. However, it won’t be an easy game for them cause the Salzburg are currently top of their League table having won 7 games out of the 8 and lost only once. So it can be considered that they are in good form as last week too they drew against the Italian giants AC Milan. They do indeed have the potential to win this game but with the quality that Chelsea has it is highly unlikely.
