Chelsea vs Shamrock Rovers – Predicted lineup and team news | OneFootball

Chelsea conclude their Europa Conference League league phase campaign against Shamrock Rovers this evening.

The Blues take on Irish opposition for the first time in Europe, in what will be a huge occasion for the visitors at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea have taken maximum points from their five games in Europe this season to ease into the knockout rounds. Enzo Maresca’s side have scored 21 goals in five games and sit two points clear of Vitoria SC in the standings.

Shamrock have also impressed in Europe. The League of Ireland outfit are unbeaten in their five games, taking 11 points. A positive result in West London would assure Stephen Bradley’s side of a place in the competition’s last 16.
