Chelsea and Basel are well acquainted with one another after meeting in the semifinals of the Europa League last season, with the Blues coming out on top with a 5-2 win.
However, this season Chelsea has an array of young stars that could all play significant roles in the Champions League this season, with Oscar, Eden Hazard and Andre Schurrle all impressing in the early stages of the campaign.
It'll be vital for Chelsea to have a repeat performance of their season opener against Hull City Tigers in order to make a statement in today's match.
On the other side Basel has its own set of stars to boast, and among those are veteran forward Marco Streller and Egyptian forward Mohamed Salah.
Bleacherreport.com has reported that all eyes will understandably be on Marco Streller when it comes to Basel's goal threat on Wednesday, but Chelsea's defenders will need to play close attention to Frenchman Giovanni Sio if he appears.
The 24-year-old arrived at St. Jakob-Park this summer from Wolfsburg and has wasted no time in getting his scoring boots on, scoring twice in his two league appearances.
