AS Roma vs. Chelsea Football Club

Chelsea crushed Lazio at the Stadio Olimpico in 2003.

Chelsea travel to Italy with the possibility of guaranteeing progression into the knock-out rounds of the Champions League.

5 years to the day of a famous Chelsea victory in Italy, Luiz Felipe Scolari takes his side to Rome to face Italian giants AS Roma. Despite a faltering start to their league campaign, players such as Francesco Totti, Mirko Vucinic, Rodrigo Taddei and Daniele de Rossi will be looking to get their season kick-started in the right direction.

Chelsea, on the other hand, are flying high in Europe and in their own domestic league, and are top of Group A and the Premier League thanks to their superior goal difference in both competitions.

Five years to the day of this fixture, Chelsea went to Italy searching for a much-needed win in the Champions League in a game against Lazio. In the Olimpic Stadium, the Blues won 4-0 - the biggest winning margin by a foreign team on Italian soil that has since been equalled by Arsenal. Can the Blues emulate the score line under Claudio Ranieri to ensure qualification for the next round with two games remaining?
