The UEFA Women's Champions League is back in action with another set of matches this week as Chelsea take on Servette Chenois on Tuesday. Chelsea have excelled on the European front in recent years and hold the upper hand going into this game.
Servette Chenois are in fourth place in the Nationalliga and have been fairly impressive this year. The Swiss outfit can pack a punch on its day and will need to be at its best to stand a chance in this match.
Chelsea, on the other hand, are three points behind arch-rivals Arsenal in the league table and have effectively hit their stride this season. The Blues will be intent on topping Group A and cannot afford to drop points in this fixture.
