Werder Bremen v Chelsea
Wed 7.45pm SS1Paddy Power odds Werder Bremen 6 - 4 Draw 21 - 10 Chelsea 13 - 8 First of all Barcelona are away to Sofia, but should have enough in the locker to win. This will give them eight points. Werder Bremen are at home to Chelsea tonight, but then have to travel to the Nou Camp. They have to get at least one victory to go through, but two draws to see them through. What is significant is that if they were to lose tonight, then they would have to beat Barcelona away in their last game. In the light of that, this game is crucial to them. Chelsea meanwhile have points in the bag and they play Sofia at home in the last game. They should at least win that and secure the top spot. Winning tonight is not a big priority for Mourinho. And don't forget he has a huge match on Sunday against United, which must be on his mind. But of course you could argue that Chelsea have looked so sharp in this competition that they will expect to win this. Mourinho instills a winning mentality in his players, and it's hard to see him being overly negative and playing a really weakened side. It's not out of the question, so wait until the team news. There is a school of thought that Mourinho would do it just to wind up Barcelona, and it's a scenario that cannot be ruled out. Bremen are currently second in the Bundesliga and their form domestically has picked up from a sluggish start. They have a history in recent Champions League campaigns of doing very well. They are certainly no walkovers. They will be at Chelsea from the word go as they must at least get a point. There has been decent money as well for them, as punters can sense an upset?.or at the very least, a weaker Chelsea. A win for Chelsea will undoubtedly hand the second spot to Barcelona, which is not entirely in their interests. It's worth taking a chance that their foot would be off the gas.
