Djurgarden preview: Outclassed and outplayed
Djurgarden knew they were up against it last week and barring a miracle on Thursday night, their time in this season's Conference League has come to an end.
The Swedes had 41% of the possession and their passing accuracy wasn't as sharp as Chelsea's at 88%, but the hosts did manage to fire off 16 shots against their illustrious guests and five of those landed on target.
Jacob Rinne, the man between the sticks for Djurgarden, was the busier of the two goalkeepers, but only made three saves from Chelsea's seven shots on target.
Goalkeeper Malkolm Nilsson Safqvist has an elbow injury that will keep him from making the trip to London this week.
Predicted lineup: Rinne (GK), Danielson, Une Larsson, Stahl, Kosugi, Stensson, Finndell, Nguen, Haarala, Gulliksen & Priske

Player to watch: Enzo Fernandez
Enzo Fernandez has put in some very impressive displays for Chelsea this season, especially in the Conference League.
The Argentine international has scored one goal and provided six assists in European competition for the Blues this season, making him their key playmaker in the Conference League.
The Chelsea midfielder has six assists in the Conference League
If Fernandez plays against Djurgarden on Thursday, we're expecting the 24-year-old to control the game from the centre of the pitch in a game that Chelsea should dominate from start to finish.
