Chelsea vs Galatasaray Champions League Preview
Chelsea will try to become the first English team to qualify for the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals this season when they host Galatasaray for the second leg of their round of 16 tie at Stamford Bridge this evening.
Coming from a disappointing 1-0 Premier League defeat against Aston Villa over the weekend, the Blues hold a slender advantage over the Turkish side product of their 1-1 draw in the first leg in Istanbul.
Former Chelsea star Didier Drogba returns to London to face the club “where (he) experienced everything"
"I experienced the highest level, big games - it allowed me to get closer to the best players in the world.
"It is a very special moment because I do not know what my reaction will be. I am quite apprehensive about it," Drogba told reporters.
The 36-year-old forward scored 157 goals in 341 appearances for the Blues to be selected by the fans as the greatest player in Chelsea's history.
