Team news and form guide

Chelsea: Looking unbeatable right now

Chelsea secured a 3-0 victory in Amsterdam and we're predicting that the Londoners will go with the same starting eleven on Wednesday night to make sure they get the job done. If Chelsea lead at the break, you'd expect a few changes early in the second half to hand some of those first-team regulars a well-deserved rest.

Predicted lineup: Hampton (GK), Buchanan, Périsset, Carter, Charles, Leupolz, Reiten, Rytting Kaneryd, Cuthbert, Nüsken & James

Ajax: Virtually out of the Champions League

Ajax only made three substitutes in the second half of their 3-0 defeat to Chelsea in the first leg so we're expecting the Dutch giants to go with the same starting eleven on Wednesday with the hope that they will be able to get themselves back into this tie with an early goal.

Predicted lineup: van Eijk (GK), de Sanders, Kardinaal, Keijzer, de Klonia, Noordam, van Gool, Yohannes, Hoekstra, Leuchter & Grant

Player to watch – Lauren James

Lauren James scored her first Champions League goal of the season in the 3-0 win against Ajax, and we're backing the 22-year-old to impress once again on Wednesday night.

James has been in great form for Chelsea this season scoring 13 goals in 15 league games, her best return in the Chelsea blue.

Lyon's Norwegian striker is back to her very best this season

The young forward is in good form right now with three goals in her last five outings in league and cup, so you can see why she is our player to watch in this game.
