Chelsea and Galatasaray are playing live on the Champions League schedule on Tuesday and the match will be streaming from FOX Soccer 2Go starting up at 3:45 pm ET from Stamford Bridge and this second leg match is huge for the Blues, as the two sides are tied heading into the game after a 1-1 away match last month and this will be a stiff test for Jose Mourinho's side.
Chelsea comes into the match after losing to Aston Villa on the road at Villa Park 1-0 over the weekend in English Premier League play and now they face off against Galatasaray before a huge match coming up against Arsenal and that also will be at Stamford Bridge. Chelsea was not happy with the officials in the match over the weekend and Mourinho said he hopes to avoid Chris Foy for the rest of the season, as he said that the match was marred by bad calls and that included two red cards and Ramires was also dismissed in the game and Mourinho said he was not pleased with the way things turned out in the matchup.
Mourinho has some history with Foy and that dates back to a match with Queens Park Rangers back in 2011 and that saw two dismissals for Chelsea and now Mourinho says that the Blues are focused on their next match and the rest of the Premier League schedule this season. Chelsea comes into the match after a loss against Aston Villa and a win over Tottenham and that was a 4-0 victory at home over the Spurs. Galatasaray is looking to get the edge after the 1-1 tie that went down last month and Chelsea will be looking to advance into the next stage of the UCL here.
Coming down the end of the schedule, Chelsea has a tough set of matches and that starts with Arsenal and Stamford Bridge and down the line they have to travel to the Anfield and that could have big implications, as both teams are at the top part of the Premier League table and the Blues are hanging onto their lead right now heading into next week's matchups. Chelsea has to play against Crystal Palace after the matchup with Arsenal and that shouldn't be trouble, while Swansea City is next on the schedule. The team finishes with Cardiff City on the road and before that will be the last matchup with Norwich City for the final game at home at Stamford Bridge.
The table has Chelsea on top despite their loss this past week and they have 20 wins on the season and they are four point ahead of Liverpool, so they will stay in first over the Reds no matter what happens next weekend and that is good news for Chelsea. Liverpool is on top of Arsenal for the time being and they are tied with the Gunners in points and they have been the best scoring team in the league this year. The team is ahead of Manchester City and they are up over Tottenham and Everton, while Manchester United is seventh on the league table. Chelsea will be looking to stay ahead and that could be one of multiple trophies this season.
