The international break is well underway and while much of Chelsea's squad has joined up with their national teams, their return will signal that the homestretch of the season is upon us. The Blues have a minimum of 13 matches remaining this term with Champions League and Premier League campaigns left to culminate in the next two months.
There is little doubting that European competition offers Graham Potter's team their only chance of true success for 2022/23; though with Real Madrid standing in their way, it was be no easy feat. The tournament's last two champions face off in April, and it may not be too much to say that Chelsea's season depends on those two fixtures.
Outside of that, Chelsea sit 11 points from the top four and remain in 10th position. The west London side's schedule is not an easy one for the remainder of the season with seven of their 11 matches coming against teams above them in the table.
