Chelsea's UEFA Champions League group has now been confirmed. The Blues will take on AC Milan, FC Salzburg and Dinamo Zagreb, in a bid to try and reach the Round of 16 of the European competition.
Last season, Chelsea were knocked out in the quarter-finals of the Champions League by eventual winners Real Madrid. Thomas Tuchel won the competition in his first season with the club and will be looking to add another crown to his collection this time around.
However, with the unique schedule this season, because of the FIFA World Cup being played in the winter rather than the summer, it means the fixture list is a lot more condensed. In the space of around 70 days (from September until November), Chelsea will play around 18 times. This means there will be a game for the Blues around every four days in the lead-up to the World Cup in Qatar.
