Chelsea will continue their push for a Champions League place for next season, when they host Swansea City in their English Premier League clash Sunday.

The Blues are coming off a 2-1 victory over Basel in the Europa League semifinal first leg, and Benitez will be keen to continue the momentum against the Welsh side, who really have nothing much to play for the in the Premier League, having already sealed a place in the Europa League courtesy their Capital One Cup victory.

Chelsea are currently in fourth on 62 points, one behind Arsenal and one ahead of fifth-placed Tottenham. Both Chelsea and Spurs, though, do have a game in hand over the Gunners.

The last time the two sides met, Swansea knocked Chelsea out of the Capital One Cup semifinals, with the match now infamous for the Eden Hazard-ballboy incident.

"They have a nice style and are dangerous in possession, so I think they will do well in Europe," Benitez said. "They have done things in a way they like to do, and they are doing well.

"In the (first leg) we had three or four chances and could have scored goals, but made two mistakes. We were disappointed for that but the performance was not as bad as the result. We deserved to score at home, so hopefully we can do well and score this time.

"As soon as we lost the first game we knew the second was quite difficult. David Luiz was coming back from injury, and we know about Eden Hazard and the ballboy.

"We were really disappointed because we knew we could do it but we didn't do it."

All eyes will be on Hazard against Swansea, but Benitez has no doubts about the Belgian being able to cope with the attention. "He was a good player before and still is," the Chelsea manager added. "It was bad for us because we lost him for three games.

"He is doing well. At the beginning they didn't know him, and also Oscar, so he was dynamic and difficult to stop. Afterwards defenders adjusted themselves but still you can see his quality.

"He has a special talent and can change without thinking and be effective. He likes to play in the number 10 position and it is one of our strengths to have three players who can play in this position."
