Chelsea take on Porto once again this evening in the second leg of the teams’ Champions League quarter-final tie.

The Blues were 2-0 winners in the first leg last week, with Mason Mount and Ben Chilwell scoring for Thomas Tuchel’s side in Seville.

CHAMPIONS LEAGUE LIVE: Latest Chelsea vs Porto updates

The Spanish city will play host to tonight’s fixture as well, with Porto up against it in their attempts to set up a semi-final clash with Real Madrid or Liverpool – with the La Liga champions having emerged 3-1 winners in the first leg of those clubs’ last-eight meeting.

Chelsea defeated Crystal Palace 4-1 in the Premier League at the weekend and will carry momentum from that victory into this match against the Portuguese champions, who beat Tondela 2-0 in their most recent outing.

Here’s everything you need to know about tonight’s game.

When is it?

The match will kick off at 8pm GMT this evening.

How can I watch it?

The fixture will air live on BT Sport 2. Subscribers can also stream the action live on the broadcaster’s website and app.

What is the team news?

Following a successful first leg and considering their upcoming FA Cup semi-final against Manchester City, Chelsea’s fully fit squad could see some rotations here.

Porto, meanwhile, will be glad to have Taremi and Sergio Oliveira – who has bagged 19 goals so far this season – back from suspension.

Confirmed line-ups

Chelsea: Mendy, Azpilicueta, Silva, Rudiger, James, Kante, Jorginho, Chilwell, Mount, Havertz, Pulisic

Porto: Marchesin, Manafa, Mbemba, Pepe, Zaidu, Grujic, Uribe, Otavio, Sergio Oliveira, Tecatito, Marega

Odds

Chelsea: 4/5

Draw: 29/10

Porto: 16/5

Prediction

Chelsea must beware a stunning Champions League comeback, a few of which we’ve seen in recent seasons, but they should have the quality – and composure under Tuchel – to get over the line here. Chelsea 1-0 Porto.
