Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has predicted that Chelsea will overcome Borussia Dortmund in their Champions League clash on Tuesday night. The two sides go into the second leg after a 1-0 victory for the Bundesliga side at the Signal Iduna Park last month.
Karim Adeyemi's solo effort was the only difference between the two sides in the reverse fixture, but the Blues are in a position to overturn the deficit and book their place in the final eight of the competition. For Graham Potter, it could be a crucial game in his tenure, with reports that defeat could impact his future.
"The position we’re in, you should always welcome pressure because it means you’re in a fantastic situation which is to compete for the last eight of the Champions League," Potter said ahead of the clash. "It’s a wonderful competition and it’ll be a special night. It was a special occasion in Dortmund and I’m sure it will be the same at Stamford Bridge tomorrow. We’re looking forward to the game and competing to go through because it’s a fantastic competition and we want to progress."
